Shed Hydrophobic Cycloaliphatic Epoxy (S-HCEP) - a New Cost-efficient Housing Material for Composite Insulators

Araldite® S-HCEP, a new cost-efficient alternative housing material for composite insulators is briefly presented. Main topics of this paper are the results of two new studies on this material: 1. UV-weathering resistance in terms of hydrophobicity, roughness increase, surface resistance and flexibility 2. Leakage current behavior under salt fog conditions in comparison to other materials instructions give you basic guidelines for preparing papers for conference proceedings.
