Films are playing an increasingly important role in industry. Not only in the area of product packaging, but also in the context of the product itself.One particularly popular type of film is polyimide film, as it has a specific set of properties.
Polyimide films are used in many industries - here are five industries where the material plays a role:
1. polyimide films in the electronics industry.
Polyimide film has long served useful purposes in the manufacturing electronics industry due to its electrical insulation and thermal stability. Film often acts as an insulating and protective layer on electrostatic sensitive and sensitive components. Its protective effect is present throughout the electronic product manufacturing process and is often still present in the final product. Most people have a polyimide film in their cell phone.
2. polyimide film in electric motor industry (manufacturing and repair).
Insulation strength and high temperature resistance make polyimide film a popular material in the manufacture of tractors used in the transportation industry. Polyimide films are also widely used in laminates in the tractor field.
3. polyimide films in medical device industry.
Polyimide films are the universal material of choice for windows of all types of X-ray sources - synchronous beamlines, X-ray tubes and X-ray detectors. The material's high mechanical and thermal stability and X-ray permeability make it ideal for X-ray technology, and it is also relatively immune to radiation damage. Spiral cuffs and polyimide film caps are also used in medical technology.
4. polyimide film as a printing material in 3D printing
Polyimide film is also used in 3D printing: Polyimide and ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) films bond and adhere very well. This relationship between the materials has led to the widespread use of polyimide films as design surfaces for 3D printers. The process is simple: a polyimide film is placed on a flat surface and ABS is extruded onto the surface. The result is that the ABS part being printed does not separate from the build structure as it cools and shrinks (eliminating a common cause of printing defects in the industry). We manufacture 3D printing plates from polyimide film up to a thickness of 0.5 mm. The maximum print bed size is 1500 x 1500 mm.
5. polyimide film in aerospace industry
Polyimide film insulated electrical cables have long been used in civil and military aircraft. The light texture of the film provides a desirable advantage over other relevant insulators for the aerospace industry. Polyimide film also has a long history in the aerospace industry and NASA programs - it is often used as a key component in insulation systems designed to protect spacecraft during transformation upon entry into the Earth's atmosphere. Polyimide films are also used in sailing applications.
