Description
Summary:Epoxy resin mixed with rice husk ash and quartz powder increases its dielectric strength. This paper presents the dielectric properties of the press board coated with this epoxy mixture. In this work, the press board, which is used in the transformer, is coated with three components: epoxy resin, rice husk ash, and quartz powder. The nanometer-sized quartz powder and rice husk ash are mixed in the particular ratio with the epoxy resin. The mixture of epoxy resin, quartz powder, and rice husk ash is coated on both sides of the press board. The dielectric constant, volume resistivity, and Tan Delta (dissipation factor) of the coated press board are compared with the noncoated press board. The results reveal that the coated board is having high dielectric constant and volume resistivity when compared to the noncoated board.
