Kapton® RS

Kapton® RS polyimide film


Kapton® 200RS100 polyimide film is an electrically conductive, all‑polyimide material developed for thin, lightweight heating applications. Its inherent resistive construction supports uniform surface heating while remaining flexible and durable at elevated temperatures, with resistance to cracking or abrasion. The film can be tailored for specific current, voltage, and temperature requirements and converted into a variety of heater configurations for industrial, automotive, and aerospace uses.

Features & Benefits

  • High Tg
  • Conductive side: black matte surface
  • Dielectric side: shiny smooth surface
  • Durable from -270°C to 200°C
  • Short-term thermal durability to 325°C (oxygen-free)
  • Maximum continuous operating temperature: 240°C

Applications

  • Surface deicing
  • Automotive interior heating
  • Aerospace temperature regulation
  • Industrial tube heating
  • Composite curing
  • Wearables
  • Consumer appliances
