We need a cheap, water-soluble and heat-shrinking polymer which can be found easily. What polymer or co-polymer could be used?
PNIPAMm, PDM, PVC, P(MA-co-AAc) etc. are the examples of heat-shrinkage polymers in their dispersions. you may see the attached links:

Thank you Mr. @Md. Abdur Rahman.
Besides PNIPAM also some other polyacrylamides shrink upon heating in water
or alcohol. Other examples are poly(N-n-propylacrylamide) and poly(N-isopropyl methacrylamide).
Thank you Mr. @Hellweg for your response.
try Monosol PVOH films: https://www.packworld.com/company/monosol-llc/products
From a hands-on experience : Poly(vinyl alcohol) is a water-soluble polymer. When subjected to heat, this thermoplastic undergoes shrinkage with a slight yellowish coloration.
Polyvinylalcohol; polyethylene glycol; polyacrylamides; polyacrylic acid copolymers.
Agree with Md. Abdur Rahman
Anodizing of SS304 creates a thick oxide layer on that. Is this layer non-electrical conductive? What thickness should be obtained in order to make the surface non-electrical conductive?
