Abstract
Abstract A stranded insulated wire and a method of producing the same. The stranded insulated wire is produced by applying a coating material containing polyvinyl butyral and a stabilized polyisocyanate to an enameled strands assembly and then by baking the assembly. The coating material contains about 1 to about 1000 parts by weight of the stabilized polyisocyanate per 100 parts by weight of the polyvinyl butyral.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
A stranded insulated wire, comprising: (a) an assembly of a plurality of enameled strands, each comprising an annealed copper wire or tin-plated annealed copper wire having thereon an insulating coating made of polyvinyl formal, polyester, polyurethane, silicone, epoxy, nylon, phenoxy, polyimide, polyester-imide, polyester-amide-imide, polyhydantoin or polyhydantoin-ester-imide; and (b) an assembling layer coating over said assembly of enameled strands, said assembling layer being produced by applying a coating material, consisting essentially of about 100 parts by weight of polyvinyl butyral, and about 1 to 1,000 parts by weight of a stabilized polyisocyanate, to the assembly and then baking said coating material to effect crosslinking.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
A stranded insulated wire, comprising: (a) an assembly of a plurality of enameled strands, each comprising an annealed copper wire or tin-plated annealed copper wire having thereon an insulating coating made of polyvinyl formal, polyester, polyurethane, silicone, epoxy, nylon, phenoxy, polyimide, polyester-imide, polyester-amide-imide, polyhydantoin or polyhydantoin-ester-imide; and (b) an assembling layer coating over said assembly of enameled strands, said assembling layer being produced by applying a coating material, consisting essentially of about 100 parts by weight of polyvinyl butyral, and about 1 to 1,000 parts by weight of a stabilized polyisocyanate, to the assembly and then baking said coating material to effect crosslinking.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
The stranded insulated wire as recited in claim 1, wherein about 10 to 300 parts by weight of stabilized polyisocyanate is used per 100 parts by weight of the polyvinyl butyral.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
The stranded insulated wire as recited in claim 1, wherein the assembling layer has a density of crosslinkage of about 30 to about 80% in terms of a gel fraction.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
47 words
The stranded insulated wire as recited in claim 3, wherein the coating material contains a solvent selected from the group consisting of ethanol, butanol, xylene, cyclohexanone, and a mixture thereof and contains about 5 to about 40 weight % of both the polyvinyl butyral and stabilized polyisocyanate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
36 words
The stranded insulated wire as recited in claim 4, wherein the polyvinyl butyral has a degree of polymerization of about 300 to about 3000 and a degree of butyralization of about 70 to about 90 mol%.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
The stranded insulated wire as recited in claim 5, wherein the thinnest part of assembling layer has a thickness of about 0.1 to about 10 μm.
