DuPont™ Kapton® corona resistant film is a state-of-the-art polyimide film that withstands the damaging effects of corona discharge. The corona resistance provides improved service life and operational efficiencies versus conventional insulation materials.

Kapton® 150FCRC019 is a composite film consisting of Kapton® 100CRC corona resistant polyimide film and a heat fusible FEP fluoropolymer film. In addition to the corona resistant property, Kapton® FCRC offers excellent, physical, electrical, thermal, and chemical resistant characteristics expected with Kapton® polyimide films.

Kapton® 150FCRC019 has been developed for use as a magnet wire insulation in rail traction, industrial motors and generators where there is a need for enhanced insulation life under partial discharge environments.

Kapton® FCRC may also be used in other electrically insulating applications where partial discharge may occur.
