Abstract :
Recent developments in filled epoxy resins have produced formulations which are rigid and yet have high flexural strength. These formulations exhibit good weatherability, thermal characteristics, and track resistance. Many applications have been made of these improved resins as described by Hofmann at the NEMA-IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference, 1968. In each case, the unique characteristics of epoxy resin have been used to eliminate problem areas, make an improved design, and lower costs.
