Die-cut and molded parts made of Nomex® aramid paper manufactured by DuPont in grades 410, 411 and 414 are used in many areas of the electrical and electronics industries.

Nomex, a DuPont product, is an aramid paper film that is considered a high-temperature insulation product. It has an excellent balance of physical and electrical characteristics. Nomex is made from synthetic aramid polymer all around in two forms: short fibers (flakes) and microscopic fibrous binder particles (fibrids). Nomex has become widely used as electronic insulation for liquid and dry transformers, motors and generators.

We have summarized the advantages of Nomex aramid paper on such page about Nomex: 11 characteristics of Nomex.

The paper is integrated in housings as insulation or used in transformers as layer insulation. The aramid paper is also used as slot insulation or cover slides.

In many cases, those Nomex parts were attached by production workers using liquid adhesives, adhesive tapes or transfer adhesives to complete the insulation tasks.

Dr. Dietrich Müller GmbH, a master converter of trusted brands such as Nomex®, Mylar®, Ultem®, Norton TH®, Pertinax®, Hostaphan® and Lexan®, is able to self-adhere equally complex molded parts as well as stamped parts and provide them polished for manufacturing.

Parts made of Nomex® that are self-adhesively finished in this way facilitate set-up on production lines and save costs.

Transfer adhesives for Nomex

The adhesive films that are used can have selected insulation classes, furthermore silicone, rubber and acrylate based adhesives are credible. We use our transfer adhesive SP 61321 as well as 3M adhesives 467 and 468 to make Nomex self-adhesive.
