The location mismatch of power production and consumption makes the large capacity
energy transmission rather necessary. Overhead transmission line has always been the …

This review discusses the necessity of surface modification to effectively use fibre-reinforced
polymers (FRPs) as reinforcements for seawater and sea sand concrete (SWSSC). FRPs …

Organophilic groups of coupling agents can be the key factor for the electrical performance
of Boron Nitride (BN)/meta‐aramid composite paper. In this article, four types of triethoxy …

The usage of polymeric insulators in transmission and distribution overhead lines for the last
few decades has increased extensively. Silicone rubber (SiR) material is used enormously …

Composite insulators have gradually become the preferred approach for electrical insulation
in power systems, especially in polluted areas. Composite insulators consist of three main …

Liquid permeation into silicone rubber (SR) may lead to the degradation or complete failure
of the composite insulators. Aiming to inhibit liquid permeation, two kinds of …

In the last decade, the decay-like aging phenomena of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) core
rods in composite insulators appeared frequently and have significantly affected the safety of …

Water invasion induced aging and degradation of the unidirectional glass fiber reinforced
epoxy resin (UGFRE) rod is inferred as the primary reason for the decay-like fracture of the …

Composite polymer dielectrics have strong electrical, mechanical, thermal and
environmental properties but experience both high electric fields and harsh environmental …

Composite insulators have been widely used in power transmission system for the light
weight, high strength, and great hydrophobicity. However, the aging of the polymers in …
