Aerogel, known as the world’s lightest solid, boasts a density so low that it’s composed of 99.8% air, making it lighter than ...

Abstract: To acquire higher dielectric strength of the insulation material, the polyimide films are combined ... high voltage components insulation in the factory, such as Feeder busbar segments, and ...

From a sustainability standpoint, certifications such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) encourage the ...

A professor has developed high-performance, sustainable building materials constructed entirely from biomatter and recycled ...

“I asked our construction team if we could have an alternative insulation material that would be carbon-negative, and this is how we actually discovered hemp insulation,” she said. “We were ...

noting the style of insulation (see below), and then finding the typical R-value per inch of that material. Say you find 14 inches of blown-in cellulose insulation, which has a typical R-value of ...

And the discovery could lead to new developments in building materials, performance apparel and energy storage solutions. “Thermal insulation of this magnitude, that is also 100 to 1,000 times thinner ...

But the benefits depend on how properly the insulation is done. “You could use the wrong material and the wrong approach,” said Christian Kaltreider, a buildings research engineer with the ...

The busbar and magnetic core must be kept under 125°C in the example. Creepage and clearance distances are 16.5mm, and 9.5mm respectively, and insulation rating is 1kV.

busbars used in EVs and HEVs must endure even higher voltages and currents and thus require insulating parts that provide more advanced properties, including superior electrical insulation and ...

By using montmorillonite nanosheets and hydroxyapatite nanowires, they created a two-dimensional aerogel with excellent thermal insulation and flame retardant properties. This material ...

The porous (Ta0.2Nb0.2Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2)C high-entropy ceramic possesses interconnected microspheres, abundant interface in the microspheres, and the severe lattice distortion of the high-entropy ...
