A Recent Trend of Research and Development of Polymer Insulator

고분자 애자의 연구 개발 동향

The construction or enlargement of the power facilities requires the compactness of them, and the development of power system amenities because of some reasons; the shortness of a site for power facilities, social request of the harmony of them with surroundings, and so on. For the insulator in this area, the research and development of polymer or composite insulator or its applications have been increased rapidly in some advanced countries, but the activities of our country are being in a weak step although our concern has been gradually enlarged about it in recent years. Thus, in this paper, we intend to introduce the trend of research and development of it in the inside and outside of the country.
