Electrical insulation materials play a pivotal role in ensuring the safety, efficiency, and longevity of electrical systems.

Metals are generally good conductors, but some materials such as wood, rubber, and plastic are not good at conducting electricity. These materials are called “insulators”. Electricity does not move ...

Topological insulators are strange stuff – the bulk of this material is insulating and cannot carry an electrical current, yet the surfaces of the same material are conducting. This means that charged ...

Metal is used in plugs to allow electricity to transfer from the wall socket, through the plug, and into a device such as a radio or TV. The rubber around this wire is an insulator. Some materials ...
