Laminates

Laminates are flexible, multi-layer insulating materials that are made by bonding films, fleece and paper. Combining various insulating sheeting materials produces end products that unite the technical properties of the base materials and offer a number of economic benefits. The materials can be combined in various ways; 2 and 3-layer laminates are normally used. The following overview contains the most commonly encountered types of laminate:

Insulation class H (180º) Insulation class F (155º) Insulation class B (130°)

Insulation class H (180°C)

NKN

Combination of NOMEX® paper and 25 µm or 50 µm of Kapton® film. The various material thicknesses are achieved by varying the thickness of the NOMEX® layers.

Thickness	Main properties	Delivered as
0,20 mm to 0,43 mm	High thermal stability High dielectric strength High chemical resistance	Original rolls narrow strips (also self adhesive) shaped and stamped parts

Insulation class F (155°C)

NMN

Combination of NOMEX® paper and polyester film.
Standard Type:
- 50 µm NOMEX® on both sides = NMN 50 Thickness between 0.17 and 0.47 mm
- 80 µm NOMEX® on both sides = NMN 80 Thickness between 0.22 and 0.48 mm
Material thickness: Determined by varying the thickness of the polyester film liner
Special types: Also available with layer of NOMEX® type 411 on both sides, please inquire for other combinations

Thickness	Main properties	Delivered as
NMN 50 Thickness between 0,14 mm and 0,47 mmNMN 80 Thickness between 0,22 mm to 0,48 mm	High mechanical strength High dielectric strength Polyester film protected against hydrolysis Protected against chemical and thermal overload Class F insulation with overload potential through the NOMEX® paper layer	Original rolls narrow strips (also self adhesive) shaped and stamped parts

Saturated DMD

Combination of polyester fleece and polyester film with cured resin impregnation on both sides
Material thickness: Determined by varying the thickness of the polyester film liner

Thickness	Main properties	Delivered as
between 0,09 mm to 0,45 mm	High dielectric strength Thermally weaker polyester materials are enhanced by impregnating them with class H resins High mechanical strength Reasonably priced class F material without overload potential	Original rolls narrow strips (also self adhesive shaped and stamped parts

Insulation class B (130°C)

DMD

Combination of polyester fleece and polyester film without resin impregnation
Material thickness: Determined by varying the thickness of the polyester film liner

Thichness	Main properties	Delivered as
between 0,09 and 0,35 mm	High dielectric strength High mechanical strength	Original rolls narrow strips (also self adhesive shaped and stamped parts

Pressboard film laminates

Combination of polyester film and high-grade pressboard (PSP 3040)
Material thickness: Determined by varying the thickness of the pressboard and polyester film liner

Thickness	Main properties	Delivered as
between 0,07 mm and 1,00 mm	High dielectric strength PET film protected against effects of hydrolysis and oxidation Good tear resistance and tear propagation resistance	Original rolls narrow strips (also self adhesive) shaped and stamped parts
