  • Radiation curable coating composition for superconducting wire
    Patent number: 6355599
    Abstract: This invention provides a radiation curable coating composition for superconducting wires. The coating composition comprises at least one (meth)acrylate terminated urethane oligomer, at least one adhesion promoter, at least one (meth)acrylate functionalized diluent and at least one free radical photoinitiator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 9, 1999
    Date of Patent: March 12, 2002
    Assignee: DSM Desotech, Inc.
    Inventors: Edward P. Zahora, Steven C. Lapin, David M. Szum, Steven R. Schmid
  • Radiation curable coating compositions for superconducting wire
    Patent number: 6021338
    Abstract: A radiation curable coating composition for superconducting wires including at least one (meth)acrylate terminated urethane oligomer, at least one adhesion promoter, at least one (meth)acrylate functionalized diluent and at least one free radical photoinitiator. The coating composition is able to withstand repeated thermal cycling from the ambient temperature to the critical temperature of the superconducting wire and, because the composition is radiation cured, the superconducting wire is not heated, thus avoiding degrading the superconducting wire.
