Abstract:
Multilayer films and adhesive tapes that include such films, wherein the multilayer films include plasticized polyvinyl chloride and optionally one or more fillers.
Abstract:
A cable has a conductor extending therefrom and a partially exposed fluid-containing layer surrounding the conductor. A connector is joined to an end of the conductor, and an electrically insulative, elastomeric tube is covers all of the exposed fluid-containing layer and a portion of the connector. The elastomeric tube is substantially 10 impermeable to the fluid in the cable. For cables having more than one conductor, an additional elastomeric boot is installed over the cable.
Abstract:
Provided is a composition having a halogen-free polymeric material, a halogen-free flame retardant, and a coupling agent. Also provided is a method of making a tape containing the steps of forming the previously recited composition into a backing; and applying an adhesive to a surface of the backing to form the tape. When the tape is tested using UL 510 (7th Ed.), it has at least one of the physical properties: an elongation at break of at least 60%; a tensile strength at break of at least 10.34 Mpa (1500 psi); a dielectric strength of at least 1,000 V per mil of tape thickness; an average adhesion strength of at least 0.175 N/mm; and a retention of at least 90% of an original average dielectric strength after the tape is conditioned for 96 hours in air with a temperature of 23.0°C and a relative humidity of 96%.
Abstract:
Provided is a tape that includes a halogen-free backing comprising a polymeric material; a flame retardant; and a coupling agent; and an adhesive layer located on a surface of the backing. The tape is flame retardant when tested according to Section 4 of Underwriters Laboratories UL 510, Seventh Edition.
Abstract:
Adhesive tapes include a plasticized polyvinyl chloride backing, a primer including an ethylene/carbon monoxide-containing terpolymer, and an adhesive.
Abstract:
Flame retardant adhesives and adhesive tape articles include a halogen-free flame retardant composition comprising a phosphinate or phosphinate salt. The halogen-free flame retardant compositions can also include additional materials, such as alumina trihydrate and magnesium hydroxide, that are substantially free of halogenated compounds or materials.

Abstract:
An electrically insulating composition for bonding to metal and method for applying the composition in sheet form. The insulating composition comprises a polyolefin polymer adapted for elevated temperature crosslinking and a co-bonding agent mixed with the polyolefin polymer in an amount up to 60 parts of the co-bonding agent to 100 parts of the polyolefin polymer. Preferably, the insulating composition cures in contact with metal pre-heated to elevated temperatures in a range from 140 °C to 190 °C to provide a lap-shear bond strength between the electrically insulating composition and a metal substrate of from 3.3 MPa to 12 MPa.
