SynTherm® – Insulating Materials SynTherm® DMD

SynTherm® DMD is a flexible 3-ply insulating material made of polyester film covered with a layer of impregnated fleece on both sides.

SynTherm® DMD is a Class F (155 °C) insulating material and has a high dielectric and high mechanical strength. It is tough and flexible.
This allows for easy insertion into the slot and the spreading effect ensures a sturdy grip. The smooth surface makes SynTherm® DMD ideal at automatic insulating and insertion machines. Additionally, it provides excellent adhesion in conjunction with impregnating materials.
The outer cured resin impregnation protects the polyester film against oxidation and hydrolysis.

Application

SynTherm® DMD is used as slot insulation and for pre-shaped wedges in electric motors. Due to its special surface qualities it is also used as phase insulation. SynTherm® DMD is commonly used as core, interlayer und final insulation for the production of transformers.
