Massive Overloads on Teflon, Kapton, and Kynar Insulated Wire in an Oxygen Atmosphere.
Abstract
Results are presented for a series of overload tests to provide comparative data relating to the flammability characteristics in a 5.0 psia oxygen atmosphere of wire bundles fabricated from Teflon, Kapton (H-Film), and Kynar wire. Six test specimens were subjected to a massive overload test, five specimens to a controlled step-current overload test, and one specimen to a step-current test for the purpose of obtaining a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the chamber atmosphere. Each of the specimens was also subjected to a preliminary dielectric-strength test at 1500 Vrms. (Author)
