In this paper, we verified the failure mechanism of the discolored masking tape wrapped around the wire and studied an improved case study as well. Masking tapes are poly(Vinylchloride-co-Methyl methacrylate) (PVC) and the wire connecting with indoor/outdoor components of the air conditioner is chloroprene(CR). The masking tape under. the ultraviolet ray was accelerated to discolor fivefold. The results determined reveal the discoloration of masking tapes as an elution of the additives, dephenyl Amine series antioxidants, in the connecting wire. When changed dephenyl Amine series to phenol series, we found that the degree of discoloration was dramatically decreased. Due to stink of Thiourea and Thiuram monosulfide, as accelerators in CR wire, we controlled the vulcanization temperature and time without using these accelerators and could get the wire not to smell bad with the equal mechanical properties.
