Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electrical cable having an elongate electrically conductive element ( 2 ) and at least one electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer ( 4 ) surrounding the electrically conductive element ( 2 ). The electrical cable is exempt from polyimide-containing layer between the electrically conductive element and the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Electrical cable comprising: an elongate electrically conductive element; and at least one electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer, surrounding said electrically conductive element, wherein the electrical cable is exempt from polyimide-containing layer between said electrically conductive element and said electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer and wherein said electrical cable does not comprise a semiconductor polymer layer, and wherein the total thickness of all the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layers is at least 0.40 mm. 2. Electrical cable according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical cable is exempt from polyimide-containing layers. 3. Electrical cable according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer is an extruded layer. 4. Electrical cable according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer comprises polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE); fluorinated ethylene-propylene copolymers (FEP); perfluoroalkoxy copolymers (PFA); perfluoromethoxy copolymers (MFA); and ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE). 5. Electrical cable according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer is a non-crosslinked. 6. Electrical cable according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer makes direct physical contact with the electrically conductive element. 7. Electrical cable comprising: an elongate electrically conductive element; and at least one electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer, surrounding said electrically conductive element, and one or more semiconductor polymer layers wherein the electrical cable is exempt from polyimide-containing layer between said electrically conductive element and said electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer, and wherein the total thickness of all the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layers is at least 0.10 mm. 8. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein the total thickness of all the electrically insulating layers is at most 0.70 mm. 9. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein the one or more semiconductor polymer layers comprise at least one fluoropolymer. 10. Electrical cable according to claim 9 , wherein the fluoropolymer is selected from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE); fluorinated ethylene-propylene copolymers (FEP); perfluoroalkoxy copolymers (PFA); perfluoromethoxy copolymers (MFA); and ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE). 11. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein said electrical cable comprises a semiconductor polymer layer surrounding the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer. 12. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein said electrical cable comprises: a first semiconductor polymer layer surrounding the elongate electrically conductive element, the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer surrounding said first semiconductor polymer layer; and a second semiconductor polymer layer surrounding the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer. 13. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein the electrical cable is exempt from polyimide-containing layers. 14. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer is an extruded layer. 15. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer comprises polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE); fluorinated ethylene-propylene copolymers (FEP); perfluoroalkoxy copolymers (PFA); perfluoromethoxy copolymers (MFA); and ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE). 16. Electrical cable according to claim 7 , wherein the electrically insulating fluoropolymer layer is a non-crosslinked layer.
