Abstract :
Reinforced plastics for use in electrical and electronic applications are available with various resins and reinforcements in sheet, tube, rod and molded forms. As a result, various combinations of mechanical, electrical and chemical properties with cost are available. The decision as to which laminate, for instance, should be used in a specific application should be based on a balance between the end use requirements (with sufficient safety factors) and the available laminate properties (and cost in some cases). Often there are materials developed which exhibit outstanding properties in certain areas. However, the need for those properties may never be evident if designers and users of the materials are not aware that the property capability exists. As a result, end use designs are modified to accommodate known materials and the new development is shelved. The purpose here then is to present the capabilities of a new reinforcing material for high pressure laminates. The objective is to provide designers and users of electrical insulation with information of a laminate with outstanding dielectric strength and insulation resistance.
