<p>The insulating tube (100) comprises a base material (112) made of a material comprising silicones, polyurethanes, polyimide, polytetrafluoroethylene, ethylene tetrafluoroethylene and copolymers made of silicones and polyurethanes, and a fibrous and/or particulate filler material (113) having a higher abrasion resistance than the respective base material in a volume region, which forms a lateral surface of the insulating tube in addition to the base material. A proportion of the filler material in the material of the insulating tube is 1-15 vol.%. The insulating tube (100) comprises a base material (112) made of a material comprising silicones, polyurethanes, polyimide, polytetrafluoroethylene, ethylene tetrafluoroethylene and copolymers made of silicones and polyurethanes, and a fibrous and/or particulate filler material (113) having a higher abrasion resistance than the respective base material in a volume region, which forms a lateral surface of the insulating tube in addition to the base material. A proportion of the filler material in the material of the insulating tube is 1-15 vol.%. The filler material is configured as: sphere-, bean-, and/or grain-shaped particles; and fibers, fiber sections and/or fiber mesh. The diameter of the particulate filler material is 20-60 nm. The length of the fibrous filler material is 0.1-10 mm. The fibrous filler material is predominantly oriented such that a longitudinal direction of the fibers runs parallel to a longitudinal axis of the insulating tube. The filler material is distributed unevenly over a cross-section of the insulating tube. INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for: (1) an electrode lead; (2) a method for producing an insulating tube for an electrode lead for medical use; and (3) a method for producing an electrode lead.</p> |
