Abstract
An electrically insulated wire which has an electrical conductor formed of a base material having an outer conductor surface and a chromium oxide containing layer formed on the outer conductor surface. An electrically insulating nitride layer is provided on the chromium oxide containing layer. The electrically insulated wire has a high insulability at high-temperatures, an excellent flexibility and does not form a gas adsorption source.
Claims7
A flexible and high temperature resistant electrically insulated wire for prevention of cracking when wound upon a cylinder, comprising an electrically conducting base material selected from the group consisting of copper and copper alloy having an outer surface end forming an electrical conductor;
- a chromium oxide containing layer having a thickness of at least 1 .mu.m formed on said outer surface of said electrical conductor;
- and an electrically insulating nitride layer selected from the group consisting of silicon nitride and aluminum nitride having a thickness of at least 2 .mu.m obtained by thermal decomposition of an organic metal polymer at a temperature within a range of 500.degree. C. to 700.degree. C., said electrically insulating nitride layer being formed on said chromium oxide containing layer, said electrically insulating nitride layer and said chromium oxide containing layer together having a thickness of not more than 12 .mu.m.
A flexible and high temperature resistant electrically insulated wire for prevention of cracking when wound upon a cylinder, consisting of a wire core forming an electrical conductor made of a member selected from the group consisting of copper and copper alloy, a chromium oxide containing layer formed on an outer surface of said wire core, and an electrically insulating nitride layer selected from the group consisting of silicon nitride and aluminum nitride on said chromium oxide containing layer.
