What is Electrical Grade Paper?

Also known as Electrical Insulation Paper, these materials are high-strength Kraft papers with exceptional dielectric properties. At the same time, it guarantees safety by preventing electrical hazards. For improved efficiency and performance, these are manufactured using high-quality raw material, cellulose fibers from wood.

Some of its features include:

  • Prevents short circuits
  • Ensures equipment’s safety
  • Longer service life
  • Affordable
  • Versatile

Our electrical grade paper is applied in numerous applications and is incorporated to different equipment due to its many functionalities. Moreover, these materials are primarily used in accessories with high-frequency charges for their operation.

Common Applications of Electrical Grade Paper

Since electrical grade papers have various functions, they naturally come in different models. Although each model has subtle differences, the main element remains the same: to function as an excellent insulator.

Some of the standard applications of electrical grade paper include:

  • Oil transformers
  • DPC components
  • Wrapping and bundling of wires and cables
  • Power cable shielding
  • Copper strip covering
  • Insulation of electrical components

The most common industries that rely on electrical grade papers are electrical, cable, and power supply. Suppose you need help choosing from our various electrical papers for your desired application. In that case, we have a team of experts who can guide you in selecting the most suitable insulating paper for your needs.

Electrical Grade Paper Products

We specialize in electrical-grade products made in superior Kraft materials. One of these is the Coppercote® family, consisting of insulating papers in different types to suit your application’s specific needs. These include:

  • Coppercote® EK Paper: These papers are pH neutral and are sulfur and chloride-free. EK paper’s are known for being versatile and are primarily used in wrapping bundles of wire.
  • Coppercote® EK/HS Paper: EK/HS 3 mil paper materials are RoHS compliant. These are also coated on one side with heat-activated thermoplastic for rubber-jacketed cable construction applications.
  • Coppercote® LD Paper: Known for its medium tensile strength, these specialty papers are typically used as precision servers or separator paper in cable manufacturing.
  • Coppercote® HD Paper: Made with high-density wood pulp, HD Paper has remarkable tensile strength. With its outstanding TEA, it can conform to any shape without breaking.
  • Coppercote® HC Paper: Coppercote® HC Papers have incredible elongation properties. These are high-stretch wood pulp with high TEA, which can also conform to irregular shapes without cracking.

The right product will depend on your application. Therefore, the suitable material is always based on your project’s specifications and prerequisites to ensure you get the best results.

Thermally Upgraded Papers

Thermally Upgraded Papers

Cellulose based papers that are chemically modified to reduce the rate of decomposition. Ageing effects are reduced either by partial elimination of water forming agents (as in cyanoethylation) or by inhibiting the formation of water through the use of stabilizing agents (as in amine addition, dicyandiamide). A paper is considered thermally upgraded if it meets the life criteria as defined ANSI/IEEE C57.100
