摘要:
A structural component such as nozzle-forming member to be utilized in conjunction with the arc quenching chamber of an electrical circuit breaker operating with a pressurized gaseous fluid such as SF.sub.6 and made from a polytetrafluoroethylene composition that is gas-emissive under influence of heat generated by the arc in the vicinity of the nozzle is provided with a system of gas-conducting passageways to permit such gas to escape from sub-surface cavities formed by deterioration of the composition rather than accumulate therein which leads ultimately to undersirable chipping off of pieces of the surface. These passageways may be constituted by a system of blind holes or by a system of grooves.
