The Role of various types of plasma treatments to improve and enhance the various insulation and dielectric properties of the materials-A Review

Tuhin Das, Ajaan Anubhav Borah

Abstract


Enhancing the insulation and dielectric properties may be regarded as one of the major research topics that can be undertaken for study and analysis. When any insulating material is exposed to extreme weather conditions, the degradation of such insulating materials is a very common phenomenon due to variations in temperatures, external weather extremities, wind, dust, and many other naturally occurring phenomena. Thus, the protection of insulating materials has become a vital area of study for researchers and scholars to enhance the lifespan, insulation, and dielectric properties and also to prevent the degradation of such insulating materials due to extreme weather conditions when exposed to an open environment. The various withstanding properties of the materials like breakdown strength, flashover voltage, contact angle, thermal conductivity and various dielectric properties are being studied in this paper. Also, the applications of various non-thermal plasma treatments generated by using various discharge methods like Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD), Corona discharge, Microwave discharge and Radiofrequency discharges and the effects of those non-thermal plasma treatments in improving and enhancing the insulation and dielectric properties of the insulators have been extensively studied and reviewed.
