The fundamentals of insulating electronic equipment

Electrical insulation used in electronic components as applied to military alιparatus must withstand extreme environmental conditions. These multiple requirements complicate the selection of insulation materials to give optimum life and reliability. Representative examples of typical insulation applications are given, as well as special applications which may show the trend of things to come. From all indications, such as the space age ahead, it would seem that art-advancing work in electrical insulation materials as applied to electronics will continue and that new materials will be devrloped to help solve the many problems encountered.
