(Nanowerk Spotlight) Polymers are ideal for energy storage for transportation due to their light weight, scalability, low-cost manufacturing, and high dielectric strength. Dielectrics are materials ...

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) can undergo large, reversible in-plane deformation. In a new report now published in Science Advances, Junhong Pu and a team of scientists in soft materials ...

Plastics are inherently dielectrics or electrical insulators, with electrons tightly bound within their covalent polymer chains, preventing the free flow of charge. This property makes them ...

TDK Corp. has introduced its family of EPCOS E13EMHV SMT transformers with high dielectric strength for a range of DC/DC converter topologies. The isolation distances meet the IEC 60664-1, 61558-2-16 ...
