Synopsis
This book treats electrical properties to polymeric materials from the most insulating material to the most conducting. It is intended for chemists and technologists working with polymers for specific electrical and electronic engineering uses. It is written from a chemist's point of view giving special emphasis to the understanding of electrical properties and their dependence on chemical and physical structure. How to design polymeric materials with a low or high dielectric constant, how to prevent electrical failure and water treeing and how to synthesize highly conductive polymers, this book imparts the basic knowledge of molecular engineering properties. It will be of predictive value in the control of the four fundamental parameters of electrical properties in polymers: dielectric constant, tangent of dielectric loss angle, dielectric breakdown, and electrical conduction. Contents: Introduction Dielectric Constant of Polymers Tangent Loss of Polymers Electrical Conduction of Polymers Dielectric Breakdown of Polymers Appendix: List of Electrical Properties and Commercial Polymetric Materials.
