Latest Patents
Miller holds a patent for a self-current-limiting device and a method of making such devices. This invention involves melt processable, self-temperature regulating, irradiation cross-linked, electrically semi-conductive polymeric compositions that exhibit positive temperature coefficients of electrical resistance. The semi-conductive compositions contain electrically conductive particles, such as carbon black, which are dispersed throughout the composition in amounts ranging from about 15% to about 20% of the total weight. The heating cables produced using this invention consist of two or more elongate, substantially parallel, spaced-apart electrical conductors that are interconnected by extruded forms of the compositions. The method is characterized by an efficient three-step process that includes extruding the semi-conductive composition over the conductors, radiation cross-linking, and annealing without the need for a shape-retaining jacket prior to annealing.
