Table 3 – Periodic conformance tests
| Thermoplastic flow | Median not less than 250°C |
| Solubility | Specimens immersed in xylene shall not soften sufficiently to expose the bare conductor |
| Dielectric breakdown rated temperature | Average not less than 75% of the value in table 2 |
| Scrape resistance | Lowest grams-to-fail load for any one of three tests, and the average of the three tests shall not be less than the values in Helical Coil Preparation and Bond Retention table |
Characteristics
Excellent solvent resistance
Scratch resistance
Better heat resistance than ordinary polyester enameled wire
Its hydrolysis resistance is relatively poor
Suitable for a variety of high-temperature working environments.
Application
Coils for electronic communication lighting, sealed submersible motors, micro generators, heat-resistant transformers, contactors and solenoid valves.
It is also suitable for manufacturing soft composite materials for electrical use, solar cell backplanes and electrical pressure-sensitive adhesive tape substrates, and is widely used in various types of motors, dry-type transformers, electronic appliances, power switches, power capacitors, solar cell modules and LED light source products.
