Surface resistance and hydrophobicity of HTV silicone rubber in the presence of salt-fog
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Silicone rubber used to fabricate insulators can provide long-term and satisfactory service even under polluted and wet conditions. This is due to its long-term hydrophobic surface properties. The hydrophobic surface inhibits the formation of a continuous water film and the flow of leakage current along the surface. This mitigates against the initiation of dry band arcings that lead to flashover. In the present study, high temperature vulcanized (HTV) silicone rubber rods were subjected to accelerated wetting in salt-fog and immersion in a saline solution. A dc voltage is applied to the specimens to measure the surface resistance. Some of the influencing parameters on the surface resistance are studied. These include: 1. The duration of the exposure to the salt-fog without electric stress, 2. The duration of the exposure to combined salt-fog and ac electric stress, and 3. The specimen length. The contact angle and the surface roughness are measured and correlated with the corresponding surface resistance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
