  • Method of manufacturing a heat shrinkable article
    Patent number: 5045136
    Abstract: A heat deformable tube having a melt liner of noncross-linked, cross-linkable thermoplastic material, such that upon heating to a temperature high enough to cause the tube to return to its original shape; the melt liner melts and encapsulates the substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 17, 1990
    Date of Patent: September 3, 1991
    Assignee: Essex Group, Inc.
    Inventor: Benoit L. Poulin
  • Heat shrinkable tubing article
    Patent number: 4915139
    Abstract: A heat deformable tube having a melt liner of noncross-liquid, thermoplastic material, such that upon heating to a temperature high enough to cause the tube to return to its original shape; the melt liner melts and encapsulates the substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 17, 1988
    Date of Patent: April 10, 1990
    Assignee: Essex Group, Inc.
    Inventors: Louis G. Landry, Benoit L. Poulin
  • Method of making and applying ethylene-propylene diene terpolymer texturized heat shrinkable tubing
    Patent number: 4705657
    Abstract: A low temperature heat shrinkable ethylenepropylene diene terpolymer tubing is described which has a texturized surface. Upon applying the heat shrinkable tubing to a complex shaped object and exposing it to temperatures below 85.degree. C., the tubing shrinks radially, linearly and uniformly so as to preserve the texturized friction surface, shrinking over depressions and expansions of the complex surface without wrinkling. In addition, a low temperature semiconductive heat shrinkable tubing is also disclosed.

  • Texturized heat shrinkable tubing having radial and longitudinal shrinkage memory
    Patent number: 4576207
    Abstract: A heat shrinkable tubing is described which has a texturized surface. Upon applying the heat shrinkable tubing to a complex shaped object and applying heat the tubing shrinks radially and linearly, uniformly so as to preserve the texturized friction surface, shrinking over depressions and expansions of the complex surface without wrinkling.
