Special Session SS08

Advanced Insulation Materials and Their Performance Analysis Technologies

---

Introduction:

In response to the strategic goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality and the construction demand of the new-type power system, insulation materials have become the core foundation for ensuring the safe and stable operation of power equipment, and directly determine the safety and stability performance of power equipment. Complex service conditions such as high electric field strength and wide temperature range impose stricter requirements on the breakdown resistance, aging resistance, thermal conductivity and environmental adaptability of insulation materials. Accordingly, the development of novel advanced insulation materials, performance characterization & testing, and failure analysis have become a research hotspot in the electrical engineering community. This special session aims to establish an exchange platform for researchers worldwide, to share cutting-edge research advances in the preparation and modification of advanced insulation materials, multi-scale performance testing and analysis, aging and failure mechanisms, and numerical simulations. It seeks to promote the in-depth interdisciplinary integration of materials R&D, testing technologies and engineering applications, and provide new insights and directions for the innovative development of high-performance electrical insulation materials. Experts and scholars in relevant fields are sincerely invited to submit manuscripts and participate in academic exchanges.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
1. Preparation, modification and performance optimization of novel composite and eco-friendly electrical insulation materials;
2. Multi-scale characterization technology and testing & analysis methods for insulation material properties including space charge, breakdown and aging;
3. Insulation failure mechanism, numerical simulation and life evaluation technology under extreme operating conditions;
4. Artificial intelligence-aided design, performance prediction and process optimization of insulation materials;
5. Engineering applications of advanced insulation materials in power equipment, energy storage and power devices.
