Aluminized Polyimide Sheets

Kapton film type hn kapton polyimide film from dupont has more than 50 years of proven performance as the flexible material of choice in applications involving very high 400 c 752 f or very low 269 c 452 f temperature extremes.

Aluminized polyimide sheets.

Silver plated copper spc alloy conductor. Nasa plans to use individual dak sheets in lightweight deployable shields for satellites carrying instruments. The 966 acrylic adhesive is nominally 2 3 mils adhesive. Use to quiet noisy areas and line machine enclosures.

Polyimide is very durable easy to machine and can handle very high temperatures. The gold and silver colored sheets you see are often a single layer of aluminized polyimide with the silver aluminum side facing in. This combination of materials allows that one side is an insulation side and the other is conductive. Professional plastics handles the widest selection and largest inventory of polyimide products anywhere in the world.

Polyimide is also highly insulative and does not contaminate its surroundings does not outgas. The yellowish gold color of the polyimide on the outside gives the satellite the appearance of being wrapped in gold. Kapton film possesses a unique combination of properties which makes it ideal for a variety of applications in many. Since then it has proven itself as the top flexible material of choice in applications involving extreme temperature variations.
