The core layer is a polymer with less than 5 weight percent filler. The second outer is similar to the first outer layer and contains a base polymer, a low conductivity carbon black filler or pigment and a dielectric filler. The two outer layers can be the same or different. Optionally, additional layers can also be used between the two outer layers.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2012Publication date: January 10, 2013Applicant: E. I.
