I’ve been told it’s something called ‘Kapton’. Is that the same as Mylar?

“I’ve been told it’s something called ‘Kapton’. Is that the same as Mylar?”

“Kapton is a polyimide film produced from the condensation of pyromellitic dianhydride and oxydiphenylamine, which not only offers higher tensile strength and reliability than Mylar but has the ability to maintain its excellent physical, electrical, and mechanical properties over a wide temperature range.”

New and improved! Interesting.
