A composite cable includes a sheath surrounding an outer surface of a core at least including a plurality of thick electric wires each having a resin layer on an outer circumference of a conductor, and a plurality of thin electric wires each having a resin layer on an outer circumference of a conductor, in which the sheath includes a resin composition including base resin containing at least one type of ethylene rubber and styrene elastomer at 10 to 50 mass %.

Superelastic conductive fibers, and more particularly, sheath-core fibers for superelastic electronics, sensors, and muscles, and a process for fabricating of highly stretchable sheath-core conducting fibers by wrapping fiber-direction-oriented conductive nanofiber sheets on stretched rubber fiber cores.

The hermetic terminal includes a metal base that is provided with at least one sealing hole, a lead that is inserted in the sealing hole provided on the metal base, an insulating material that hermetically seals the metal base and the lead, and a heat insulating member that is provided to cover at least a partial surface of the hermetic terminal which is located inside a pressure-resistant container after the hermetic terminal is fixed to the pressure-resistant container and comes into contact with refrigerant sealed in the pressure-resistant container.

A durable coating which reduces ice adhesion and minimizes ice accumulation includes a polymeric binder and a film forming lubricant. The polymeric binder is selected from a fluoropolymer or silicone polymer having one or more reactive groups. The film forming lubricant is a lubricous fluoropolymer or silicone polymer. Methods of applying a durable coating are also disclosed.

A cable includes a sheath, and a coating film covering a circumference of the sheath. The coating film adheres to the sheath. The static friction coefficient of a surface of the coating film is smaller than the static friction coefficient of a surface of the sheath. The adhesion strength between the sheath and the coating film is 0.30 MPa or more.

Electronic textiles and methods of fabrication electronic textiles. Nanoparticles of a conductive material are sprayed along a conductive path into a fabric material so as to penetrate into the fabric. A layer of a second conductor material is coated over the nanoparticles along the conductive path. A layer of an insulator material is coated over the layer of the second conductor material so as to encapsulate the conductive path and form a trace. An electrode configured to contact a subject wearing the fabric material includes a layer of a third conductor material coated over the layer of the second conductor and electrically coupled with the conductive path. An electrical connector is secured to the fabric material and electrically coupled with the conductive path. The nanoparticles are sprayed onto the fabric material using a dual regime spray process implemented with a dual regime spray system.
