The paper deals with a field-grading insulation usingsilicone gel as main material/binder. Additives, which providethe nonlinearity of the compounds, consist of a support materialwith metal oxide coating. The nonlinear electrical propertieswere adjusted by the addition of different dopants. In thisinvestigation the fundamental properties of new non-linearconductivematerials (NLCM) were examined. One aim of theinvestigation is to attribute the macroscopic electrical behaviorto the respective doping. For a typical compound, fieldcalculations for a cable joint model are presented and comparedto a conventional design without NLCM.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
