Enhancing Hydrophobic Stability of Silicone Rubber Insulators Under High‐Voltage Direct Current Stress Through Optimised Nano‐Fumed Silica Surface Area: A Dynamic Drop Test Study

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The long‐term hydrophobic stability of silicone rubber (SiR) insulators is essential for their reliability in high‐voltage direct current (HVDC) applications. This study investigates the effect of nano‐silica fillers with varying specific surface areas (SSA = 120, 200 and 300 m2/g) and different concentrations of alumina trihydrate (ATH ...

INVESTIGATION OF FLASHOVER VOLTAGE FOR EPOXY COMPOSITES FILLED WITH VARIOUS FILLERS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering Technologies and Management Research, 2020
Minerals fillers such as Magnesium Oxide (MgO), Alumina Trihydrate (ATH), Calcium Carbonate (CaCo3), and Silica (SiO2) were used to produce epoxy composite for high and medium voltage in electrical application. Effects of types and percentage weight of filler on flashover voltage properties of epoxy resin were determined.

Melt Grafting of Geometry‐Tailored Voltage Stabilizers for High‐Performance Polypropylene Insulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 30, 13 April 2026.
A scalable one‐step melt grafting strategy is developed to enhance the dielectric properties of isotactic polypropylene by covalently incorporating thermally stable aromatic voltage stabilizers. This solvent‐free approach improves volume resistivity and DC breakdown strength through deep trap formation and charge localization, offering a sustainable ...
