Effect of filler on self-healing properties of silicone rubber in electrical tree phenomena

Pure silicone rubber is one of the polimer based that is widely used in insulation industry nowadays because it has self-healing properties compared to other polymer introduced before. With its good characteristics such as oil and solvents resistance, cannot be degraded if exposed to sunlight, high...

description Pure silicone rubber is one of the polimer based that is widely used in insulation industry nowadays because it has self-healing properties compared to other polymer introduced before. With its good characteristics such as oil and solvents resistance, cannot be degraded if exposed to sunlight, high gas permeability, high insulation resistance in silicone rubber were give advantages and goodness as a material that have self-healing properties. In this project, the main material used is pure silicone rubber. Nanofillers are well known act as a barrier to the propagation of electrical treeing.
