Abstract

Abstract A magnet wire suitable for use in hermetic motors comprising a conductor wire, an insulating intermediate layer, a polyamide outer layer, and an organic polymeric lubricant coating on the outer layer. The lubricant has a pour point below about 15° F. (-9° C.) and wets the outer layer. A preferred lubricant is soluble in monochlorodifluoromethane and in dichlorodifluoromethane, and comprises a saturated C 2 -C 4 ether of ethylene oxide and 1,2-propylene oxide copolymers. A particularly preferred lubricant has a viscosity of about 100 to 400 SUS (21 to 87 centistokes) and a pour point of about -60° F. (-51° C.).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 138 words
A magnet wire suitable for use in an hermetic motor environment comprising a conductor wire; an insulating intermediate layer adjacent and exterior to said conductor wire; a polyamide outer layer adjacent and exterior to said intermediate layer, said polyamide being selected from the group consisting of polyundecaneamide, polydodecaneamide, and mixtures and copolymers thereof; and an organic polymeric lubricant adjacent and exterior to said outer layer, said lubricant comprising a saturated C 2 -C 4 ether of ethylene oxide and 1,2-propylene oxide copolymers, the ratio of ethylene oxide to propylene oxide being about 1:1 to 3:1; said lubricant having a pour point below about 15° F., a viscosity at 100° F. of about 100 to 400 SUS, and a molecular weight of about 200 to 800; said lubricant wetting the outer layer, and being soluble in monochlorodifluoromethane and dichlorodifluoromethane.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 138 words
A magnet wire suitable for use in an hermetic motor environment comprising a conductor wire; an insulating intermediate layer adjacent and exterior to said conductor wire; a polyamide outer layer adjacent and exterior to said intermediate layer, said polyamide being selected from the group consisting of polyundecaneamide, polydodecaneamide, and mixtures and copolymers thereof; and an organic polymeric lubricant adjacent and exterior to said outer layer, said lubricant comprising a saturated C 2 -C 4 ether of ethylene oxide and 1,2-propylene oxide copolymers, the ratio of ethylene oxide to propylene oxide being about 1:1 to 3:1; said lubricant having a pour point below about 15° F., a viscosity at 100° F. of about 100 to 400 SUS, and a molecular weight of about 200 to 800; said lubricant wetting the outer layer, and being soluble in monochlorodifluoromethane and dichlorodifluoromethane.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
