Kaolin, Α128ί2θ5(ΟΗ)4, ist ein Verwitterungsprodukt des Feldspats und Hauptbestandteil von Kaolin, welches auch als Porzellanerde oder weiße Tonerde bezeichnet wird. Es kann ebenso wie Bariumsulfat auch als Weißpigment eingesetzt werden. Aufgrund des hohen Schmelzpunktes und der gleichmäßigen Schichtung von oktaedrischen Aluminat- und tetraedrischen Silikatschichten, die über Schichten von Sauerstoffatomen verbunden sind, ergibt sich zusätzlich zu den guten dielektrischen Eigenschaften bei Einsatz in der Silikonkautschukmischung noch eine gute Flamm- und Feuerbeständigkeit.

Unter plastischer Verformung wird die Fähigkeit von Stoffen verstanden, sich unter einer Krafteinwirkung nach Überschreiten einer Fließgrenze irreversibel zu verformen und diese Form nach der Einwirkung beizubehalten. Es kann somit wie Knetmasse verwendet werden, aber auch extrudiert oder anderweitig in die gewünschte Form gebracht werden. Die Kautschukmischung kann hierbei zusätzlich so eingestellt werden, dass sie eine Klebrigkeit aufweist, die dazu führt, dass sie an sich selbst und an der Oberfläche des zu isolierenden Objektes kleben (haften) bleibt und somit eine gute Fixierung gewährleistet wird. Plastic deformation means the ability of materials to irreversibly deform under the action of force when a yield point is exceeded, and to maintain this shape after exposure. It can thus be used as plasticine, but also extruded or otherwise brought into the desired shape. In this case, the rubber mixture can additionally be adjusted in such a way that it has a stickiness which results in it sticking (adhering) to itself and to the surface of the object to be insulated, thus ensuring good fixation.
Das auf das zu isolierende Bauteil oder auf den elektrischen Leiter aufgebrachte The applied to the component to be insulated or on the electrical conductor
Isolationsmaterial, enthaltend die obige Kautschukmischung, kann nach der Aufbringung durch Einwirkung von Temperatur und/oder Strahlung vernetzt bzw. weiter vernetzt werden. Das Isolationsmaterial ist nach der Aufbringung also noch vernetzbar. Bei der Strahlung kann es sich um IR-Strahlung, Mikrowellen oder sonstige energiereiche Insulation material containing the above rubber mixture can be crosslinked or further crosslinked after application by the action of temperature and / or radiation. The insulation material is therefore still crosslinkable after application. The radiation can be IR radiation, microwaves or other high-energy
Strahlung handeln. Die Einwirkung von Temperatur kann beispielsweise durch das Erwärmen mit heißer Luft durch einen Föhn erfolgen. Besonders einfach und schnell lässt es sich aber dadurch vernetzen, dass die Temperatureinwirkung durch die Eigenwärme des zu isolierenden Bauteils oder des elektrischen Leiters oder die durch das zu isolierende Bauteil strömende Wärme selbst erfolgt. Durch die nachträgliche Vernetzung wird das Isolationsmaterial langzeitstabil in seiner Position fixiert, da die Kautschukmischung bei der Vernetzung vom plastischen in den elastischen Zustand übergeht. Man erhält ein elastomeres, kompressibles Isolationsbauteil, welches auch nach der Demontage an gleicher Stelle oder an anderer Stelle bei einem gleich ausgebildeten, zu isolierenden Bauteil wiederverwendet werden kann. Act radiation. The effect of temperature can be done for example by heating with hot air through a hair dryer. However, it is particularly simple and fast to crosslink by virtue of the fact that the temperature effect takes place through the intrinsic heat of the component to be insulated or of the electrical conductor or the heat flowing through the component to be insulated itself. Due to the subsequent cross-linking, the insulating material is fixed in its position for a long time in a stable manner, since the rubber mixture changes from the plastic to the elastic state during the cross-linking. An elastomeric, compressible insulating component is obtained, which can also be reused after disassembly at the same point or elsewhere in the case of an identically formed component to be insulated.
Zur Verbesserung des Flammschutzes enthält die Kautschukmischung des To improve the flame retardant contains the rubber mixture of
Isolationsmaterials vorteilhafterweise wenigstens ein Flammschutzmittel. Als Insulation material advantageously at least one flame retardant. When
Flammschutzmittel können alle der fachkundigen Person bekannten Flammschutzmittel verwendet werden, die keinen negativen Einfluss auf die dielektrischen Eigenschaften der Silikonkautschukmischung haben. Aufgrund aktueller gesetzlicher Vorgaben ist es allerdings bevorzugt, wenn das verwendete Flammschutzmittel frei von Halogen und Antimontrioxid ist. Es kommen hierbei insbesondere Stannate, wie Zinkstannat oder Zinkhydroxystannat, Hydroxide, wie Magnesiumhydroxid oder Aluminiumhydroxid, Cyanurate, wie Melamincyanurat, Borate, wie Zinkborat, phosphorhaltige Komponenten, wie Resorcinoldiphosphat oder aromatische Polyphosphate, stickstoffhaltige Flame retardants can be any of the flame retardants known to those skilled in the art, which have no negative impact on the dielectric properties of the silicone rubber composition. However, due to current legal requirements, it is preferred if the flame retardant used is free of halogen and antimony trioxide. Stannates, such as zinc stannate or zinc hydroxystannate, hydroxides, such as magnesium hydroxide or aluminum hydroxide, cyanurates, such as melamine cyanurate, borates, such as zinc borate, phosphorus-containing components, such as resorcinol diphosphate or aromatic polyphosphates, nitrogen-containing ones, are used in particular
Komponenten, wie Ammoniumphosphat, Carbonate, wie Calciumcarbonat oder Components such as ammonium phosphate, carbonates such as calcium carbonate or
Magnesiumcarbonat, oder Blähgraphit in Frage. Magnesium carbonate, or expandable graphite in question.
Das erfindungsgemäße Isolationsmaterial lässt sich nach dem Fachmann bekannten Verfahren herstellen, wobei eine Kautschukmischung mit allen benötigten Zuschlagstoffen erzeugt wird und die Mischung im Anschluss portioniert wird. Dies kann mit Hilfe eines Mischextruders oder einer Walze oder eines Zweischneckenextruders erfolgen. The insulating material according to the invention can be prepared by methods known to those skilled in the art, wherein a rubber mixture with all the required additives is produced and the mixture is subsequently portioned. This can be done with the help of a mixing extruder or a roller or a twin-screw extruder.
Das Isolationsmaterial kann in unterschiedlichsten Formen angeboten werden, z. B. in Form von Kugeln, Strängen, Streifen, Bahnen oder Bändern, oder auch einfach formlos als verformbare Masse, wie bspw. Knetmasse vorliegen. The insulation material can be offered in various forms, eg. B. in the form of spheres, strands, strips, webs or ribbons, or simply informally as deformable mass, such as. Plasticine present.
Das flexible Isolationsmaterial kann hierbei vor dem Aufbringen auf das zu isolierende Bauteil bevorzugt als Fertigteil oder als aufzuziehender Schlauch vorliegen. Es kann aber ebenso im Spritzgußverfahren mittels bspw. einer Kartusche aufgebracht werden.  The flexible insulation material may be present before the application to the component to be insulated preferably as a finished part or as aufzuziehender hose. However, it can also be applied by injection molding using, for example, a cartridge.
