Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A covered wire includes a wire including a metal, a covering layer provided at a periphery of the wire, and inclusions including at least one of a metal and a metal oxide. The inclusions are provided between the wire and the covering layer or in the covering layer, and an average size of each of the inclusions is less than a thickness of the covering layer.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A covered wire comprising: a wire comprising a metal; a covering layer provided at a periphery of the wire; and inclusions comprising at least one of a metal and a metal oxide, the inclusions being provided between the wire and the covering layer or in the covering layer, an average size of each of the inclusions being less than a thickness of the covering layer, wherein the inclusions have an average reflectivity of greater than or equal to 70% for visible light. 2. The covered wire according to claim 1 , wherein the average size of each of the inclusions in a thickness direction of the covering layer is less than or equal to ½of the thickness of the covering layer. 3. The covered wire according to claim 1 , wherein a number density of the inclusions is 1 particle/mm 3 to 3000 particles/mm 3 . 4. The covered wire according to claim 1 , wherein the inclusions comprises a metal material that is the same as that of the wire. 5. The covered wire according to claim 1 , wherein the wire is a stranded wire comprising a plurality of individual wires stranded together. 6. The covered wire according to claim 1 , wherein the wire is a compressed stranded wire.
