DuPont Nomex paper Type 410 is an insulation paper which offers high inherent dielectric
strength, mechanical toughness, flexibility and resilience. Nomex paper Type 410 is the
original form of Nomex paper, and is widely used in a majority of electrical equipment
applications. Available in 11 thicknesses (0.05 to 0.76 mm) (2 to 30 mil), Nomex paper
Type 410 is used in almost every known electrical sheet insulation application.
Electrical properties
The typical electrical property values for Nomex paper Type 410 are shown in Table I. The AC Rapid Rise dielectric
strength data of Table I, representing voltage stress levels, withstood 10 to 20 seconds at a frequency of 60 Hz.
These values differ from long-term strength potential. DuPont recommends that continuous stresses in transformers
not exceed 1.6 kV/mm (40 V/mil) to help minimize the risk of partial discharges (corona). The full wave impulse dielectric
strength data shown in Table I are based on multiple sheets. These values are appropriate for the applications which
employ these materials in such configurations. Data based on single sheets of material are available upon request.
The geometry of the system has an effect on the actual impulse strength values of the material. The dielectric strength
data are typical values and not recommended for design purposes. Design values can be supplied upon request.

Temperature has a minor effect on dielectric strength and dielectric constant, as shown in Figure 1.
Variations in frequency up to 104 Hz have essentially no effect on the dielectric constant of Nomex paper Type
410. The effects of temperature and frequency on dissipation factor of dry Nomex paper Type 410 0.25 mm
(10 mil) paper are shown in Figure 2. The 60 Hz dissipation factors of thinner papers are essentially
the same as those for 0.25 mm (10 mil) at temperatures up to 200C. At higher temperatures and frequencies,
the thicker papers have somewhat higher dissipation factors than those shown for the 0.25 mm (10 mil).

Please note:
The properties in this data sheet are
typical or average values and should
not be used as specification limits.
Unless otherwise noted, all properties
were measured in air under standard
conditions (in equilibrium at 23C, 50%
relative humidity). Note that, like other
products of papermaking technology,
Nomex papers have somewhat
different properties in the papermaking
machine direction (MD) compared
to the cross direction (XD). In some
applications it may be necessary
to orient the paper in the optimum
direction to obtain its maximum
potential performance.

Data presented for Initial Tear Strength is listed in the direction of the sample per ASTM D1004.
The tear is 90 degrees to sample direction hence for papers with a higher reported MD ITR, the paper will be tougher to tear in the cross direction.
MD = machine direction of paper
XD = cross direction of paper
