This improves the molecular structure such that the polyolefin will work as part of a heat-shrinkable sleeve and provide the required level of mechanical protection while in-service. It makes the polyolefin perform more like a tough, heat-resistant, elastic material or rubber, [3] rather than like a plastic material.
Polyolefin heat-shrink tubing typically shrinks 2:1 diametrically, [10] [9] but high-grade polyolefin heat-shrink is also available with a 3:1 ratio. [7] Polyolefin tubing may withstand being touched with a soldering iron. [10] PVC tubes are usually lower cost than other materials. [1]
Thermowells are typically installed in piping systems and subject to both hydrostatic and aerodynamic forces. Vortex shedding is the dominant concern for thermowells in cross-flow applications and is capable of forcing the thermowell into resonance with the possibility of fatigue failure not only of the thermowell but also of the temperature sensor.
Shrink wrap, also shrink film, is a material made up of polymer plastic film. When heat is applied, it shrinks tightly over whatever it is covering. [1] [2] [3] Heat can be applied with a handheld heat gun (electric or gas), or the product and film can pass through a heat tunnel on a conveyor.
provides operating temperatures from cryogenic to 300 °C (570 °F), high plasma resistance, as well as a UL rating for minimal electrical and thermal conductivity. This is the unfilled base polyimide resin. It also provides high physical strength and maximal elongation, and the best electrical and thermal insulation values. Example: Vespel SP-1.
A bolt-on thermal sleeve. A thermal sleeve, or blanket, is a device around the length of a gun barrel of a large caliber gun, typically found on modern tanks.Its primary purpose is to provide a more consistent temperature to the gun barrel, preventing distortions due to differential thermal expansion caused by the temperature differences around the barrel when firing.
Heat tunnel for shrink wrapping bakery goods in-line heating of shrink bands on plastic bottles of water Machinery to apply and shrink an overwrap. A shrink tunnel or heat tunnel is a heated tunnel mounted over or around a conveyor system. Items (such as packaging) have shrink film loosely applied; with heat, the film shrinks to fit snugly ...
