Abstract |
In order to develop an new electric insulation material for heavy electric equipments, epoxy/micro/nano composite (EMNC) was prepared by mixing micro-silica with nano layered silicate, where the nano layered silicate was synthesized by our electric field dispersion method, EMNSC was prepared by treating the EMNC with a silane coupling agent. Thermal properties such as glass transition temperature (Tg) and thermal expansion coefficient, and DMA characteristics were studied, and mechanicla properties such as tensile and flexural tests were performed. AC electrical insulation strength was also tested. All properties of EMNSC were modified by treating EMNC with silane coupling agent and it was confirmed that our new developed composites could be used in the heavy electric equipments. |
