Abstract: In order to coat and/or partially extrusion-coat flexible, elongated products, such as electrical cables or wires, and also pipes, tubing or hoses, whose surface has a material-conditioned nonstick characteristic, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, the surface of the product is wholly or partially activated (structured) through a plasma treatment and then flowable materials are applied to the activated (structured) surface area under the influence of heat and/or pressure as a coating, with complete or partial coverage, or as a formed part.

Abstract: Extrudable halogen-free mixture comprising 95-5 weight-% polyetherimide polymer with an elastic modulus greater than 2000 MPa and 5-95 weight-% flexible siloxane-polyetherimide copolymer with an elastic modulus of less than 2000 MPa. Electrical cable or wiring insulated with the extrudable halogen-free mixture comprising 60-90 weight-% of a polyetherimide polymer with an elastic modulus greater than 2000 MPa and 40-10 weight-% of a flexible siloxane-polyetherimide copolymer with an elastic modulus of less than 1000 MPa. Electrical or optical cable or tubing sheathed with the extrudable halogen-free mixture comprising 40-10 weight-% of a polyetherimide polymer with an elastic modulus greater than 2000 MPa and 60-90 weight-% of a flexible siloxane-polyetherimide copolymer with an elastic modulus of less than 1000 MPa.

Abstract: Recesses or openings (4) are arranged in a wall of an elongated tubular covering (3) made of resinous plastics that are resistant to temperature stresses and/or aggressive media; these openings are covered from the outside by a microporous layer (5) made of a fluoropolymer that is resistant to high temperatures.
