Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper reveals the high-voltage insulation properties – namely the dielectric constant, dissipation factor, breakdown strength, and voltage – of epoxy resin samples of various thicknesses containing the microadditives albite, potassium feldspar, lithium glass, and zinc glass in different concentrations. 0.1 wt% KAlSi3O8 ceramic powders as fillers in 1 mm epoxy composites designed for insulation is taken as the choice for highest breakdown strength 36.6491 kV/mm. After that, 5 wt% Li-Bi-B-O glass at 35.4687 kV/mm, 10 wt% Zn-Bi-B-O glass at 35.0432 kV/mm, and 10 wt% NaAlSi3O8 at 33.6504 kV/mm. The increase of thickness more than 1 mm is not recommended in the practical application due to the decrease of breakdown strength. Multi-layer thin structure is recommended for insulation purpose.
