2. Polybenzimidazole - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polybenzimidazole

   Polybenzimidazole (PBI, short for poly[2,2’-(m-phenylen)-5,5’-bisbenzimidazole]) fiber is a synthetic fiber with a very high decomposition temperature. It does not exhibit a melting point, it has exceptional thermal and chemical stability, and it does not readily ignite. [1]

3. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

   Typical materials used for electromagnetic shielding include thin layer of metal, sheet metal, metal screen, and metal foam. Common sheet metals for shielding include copper, brass, nickel, silver, steel, and tin. Shielding effectiveness, that is, how well a shield reflects or absorbs/suppresses electromagnetic radiation, is affected by the ...

4. Neoprene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoprene

   The soft seal material at the neck and wrists is made from single backed closed-cell foam neoprene for elasticity. The slick unbacked side seals against the skin. The blue area is double-backed with knit nylon fabric laminated onto closed cell foamed neoprene for toughness. Some insulation is provided by the suit, and the rest by garments worn ...

5. Materials for use in vacuum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materials_for_use_in_vacuum

   Aluminium wire rings can be used as cheap gaskets in demountable seals. Aluminium has high thermal conductivity, good corrosion resistance, and low solubility of hydrogen. Loss of strength at high temperatures limits its use in bakeable applications, but aluminium is advantageous for large-size systems due to its lower weight and lower cost ...

6. Polyurethane laminate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane_laminate

   Polyurethane laminate (PUL, thermal stretch, [1] fuzzy rubber [1]) is a compound fabric made by laminating a cloth fabric to one or both sides of a thin film of polyurethane. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Polyurethane laminated fabrics have a wide range of applications in medical, automotive and garment uses.

7. Foam rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_rubber

   Foam rubber was first made in 1929, by E. A. Murphy [2] and Eric Owen, two research chemists at Dunlop Rubber, who used whipped latex. In 1937, isocyanate-based materials were first used to make foam rubber. After World War II, styrene-butadiene rubber replaced many natural types of foam. Foam rubber has been used commercially for a wide range ...
