Quality Plastic Film and Plastic Sheets
Does flexible PVC film and sheets have good insulation properties? Yes. Flexible PVC is a vinyl polymer. It’s not as resistant to high temperatures, but it excels in low temperature applications. In fact, vinyl films are widely used in refrigeration units.
Does DoubleTack® 2/side adhesive film have good insulation properties? Sort of. DoubleTack is made from polyester film, which has great insulation properties. However, its adhesive coatings are not meant for expo-sure to elevated or reduced temperatures. Therefore we can not recommend this material for any sort of insulation application. We can, on a custom basis, … Read more
Does drafting film have good insulation properties? Sort of. Drafting film is made from polyester film, which has great insulation properties. However, its functional coatings are not meant for exposure to elevated or reduced temperatures. Therefore we can not recommend this material for any sort of insulation application.
Does Cling PVC vinyl film have good insulation properties? Yes. Cling PVC film is a vinyl polymer. It’s not as resistant to high temperatures as polyester films, but vinyl excels in low temperature applications. In the case of Cling, it is possible that extreme low temperatures could cause the film to loose its “tack” and become … Read more
Does ClearLay™ vinyl film have good insulation properties? Yes, at colder temperatures. Like other vinyl polymers, ClearLay is not very resistant to high temperatures, but it excels in low tempera-ture applications. ClearLay can be cooled down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit and still maintain its properties.
Does Clear DuraLar™ polyester film and sheets have good insulation properties? Yes, because of its combination of thermal and barrier properties. As a matter of fact, all polyester films have very good insulation properties. If you need a product that is optimized for insulation applications, check out our Metallized DuraLar™ film products.
Does Archival DuraLar™ film and sheets have good insulation properties? Yes, because of its combination of thermal and barrier properties. As a matter of fact, all polyester films have very good insulation properties. If you’re looking for a product that is optimized for insulation applications, try our Metallized DuraLar™ film products.
Does acetate film and sheet products have good insulation properties? Yes. But not as good as those of polyester film products. Acetate is not as heat- resistant as polyester film, but holds up very well in cold temperatures.
Do surface protection films have good electrical properties? No. Because they are made of polyolefin-based material, they don’t have great heat resistance, nor are their adhesive coatings meant for electrical applications. For electrical applications, we recommend our Hazy DuraLar™ polyester film products. Please contact today and we can help you with your requirements.
Does ShrinkArt film have good electrical properties? No. Electricity generates heat; because of ShrinkArt film’s low melt-ing point, you want to keep this material away from elevated temperatures. For electrical applications, we recommend our Hazy DuraLar™ polyester film. Please contact us today and we can help you with your requirements.
