MILITARY APPLICATIONS OF SILICONE RUBBER INSULATED WIRE AND CABLE,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0656378 | Need Help?

Abstract:

The development of silicone rubber with improved physical strength and excellent dielectric and moisture resistant properties have resulted in the application of these materials as primary insulation for transformers, large industrial motors and traction equipment. These applications have capitalized on the advantages of silicone rubber over other insulating systems. This success indicates that many difficult wire and cable requirements may also be solved using silicone rubber.
