But the insulator-turned-conductor could only dissipate heat in one direction, along the length of each polymer chain. Heat couldn’t travel between polymer chains, due to weak Van der Waals ...

Preformed Line Products offers a complete line of 15, 25 and 35kV polymer pin type insulators for C, F and J-Neck tie top and vise top insulators for all conductor applications. The company will also ...

In addition to these insulator elements, the CICA also features the high-voltage (HV) end metallic connection node, conductor fitting components, tower side connection hardware, and electric field ...

Insulators made into conductors: Polymers coaxed to line up, transformed into materials that could dissipate heat Date: March 9, 2010 Source: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Summary: Most ...

Department of Energy, Office of Science. "You can have your conductor and insulator, too." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 11 December 2015. <www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2015 / 12 / 151211132520 ...

ePTFE insulator tape, on the other hand, has a tightly controlled thickness, density, and dielectric constant. Wrapping individual conductors in ePTFE can cut interference, noise, cross-talk, and ...

Several groups have engineered polymer conductors in recent years, including Chen's group, which in 2010 invented a method to create "ultradrawn nanofibers" from a standard sample of polyethylene.

Researchers have developed a new polymer film that’s transparent, looks and feels like glass, and conducts electricity. The material is easy to manufacture on a large scale, should be less ...

MIT engineers have flipped the picture of the standard polymer insulator, by fabricating thin polymer films that conduct heat -- an ability normally associated with metals. In experiments, they ...
