Iranian Company Makes RTV Silicone Nano Coatings
These coatings, which are specially used for insulators in the power transmission and distribution industry, enjoy properties like high hydrophobicity, thermal resistance, mechanical strength, dielectric strength, and corrosion resistance.
The combination of these properties allows RTV nano coatings to prevent the accumulation of dust and industrial pollutants on the surface of equipment, reduce electrical leakage current, and prevent the occurrence of electrical discharges and fires.
One of the challenges facing the power industry, specially in hot and humid regions of Iran, is the accumulation of dust and pollution on equipment, which can lead to widespread outages. The company's coatings create a self-cleaning hydrophobic layer, preventing contaminants from adhering, thereby significantly reducing the need for constant cleaning of equipment and the costs of repairs and maintenance.
The company is now a member of the Electrical Industry Syndicate and the CIGRE Committee after obtaining a patent and nanoscale certificate and has also succeeded in obtaining ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certificates.
RTV silicone high voltage insulator coatings provide superior arcing and flash over protection in the most hostile environments.
It lasts longer than other coatings, washing and greases, providing significant savings in maintenance and replacement costs.
The RTV silicone coating generally leaves insulators virtually maintenance free for many years.
