New polymer construction materials for applications in electrical engineering

Polymeric materials and composites on their matrix are increasingly used in the electronics and electrotechnical industry, mainly as insulating elements, construction and housing electronic equipment. Modification of classic plastics using fillers and polymer recyclate allows the production of new composite materials with good electrical, exploitive and processing properties. It also creates opportunities for the rational use of recyclates generated from waste. The article describes the electrical properties of the new polymeric composites of polypropylene (PP), recycled of polyvinyl butyral (PVB rec), and fillers such as glass microspheres (GB) and glass powder (GP). On the basis of studies, the potential use of new materials in electronics and electrical engineering were determined.
