Excellent electrical insulation films for best benefits Plastics came into existence in 1869 as saviors of elephants and tortoises and are now making a variety of films for numerous applications. Lured by the prize money of $10,000 nearly 150 years back, John Wesley Hyatt invented the first synthetic polymer to replace ivory needed for the billiards game. Until then, elephants' tusks ivory were in use for the game, and replacing it with polymer changed not only the packaging industry but also many other sectors. Now there are films for many purposes, including electrical insulation film and others. Haze polyester film properties & uses Though plastic films made from many resins like PET, PVC, HDPE, PP, LDPE, LDOE, and others with additions bring in many additional benefits, hence apart from their essential benefits of source reduction, functionality, versatility, and cost, now their functions of electrical insulation, barriers to light, gas, chemicals, and others. The haze polyester film has thermoplastic polyester as the main constituent along with barium sulfate. These films come in the form of reels or sheets with a thickness of 12 to 500 microns. For haze PET films to have a thickness in the range of 10 to 100 microns will have 0.1 to 0.5 microns of barium sulfate. These films will exhibit transparency of more than 56 % and haze from 40 To 95 % as measured by ASTM-D 1003. Owing to these properties, the haze polyester films will have the following uses: ● For both internal and external glazing of windows ● For painting interior panels in bright rooms ● For constructing exhibitions ● For use in vehicles and buildings ● For use in lighting sector along with shelving and shopfitting purposes ● For releasing molds, stationery, rubber casting, cable wrap, and many general industrial uses ● For fixing flexible circuits in electronics ● For electrical insulation in motors and cables Electrical insulation film properties
