In power transmission systems, an electrical insulator is used to prevent the passage of unwanted currents to the ground. It plays an important role in improving the performance of power transmission currents. But one of the major problems is its surface contamination, which sometimes causes blackouts.
This company succeeded in developing nano coating for these insulators causing a reduction of the surface pollution. Dr. Nima Haghshanas, the founder of this company, said: “This is a silicon based coating and it increases durability of the coated insulator and guarantees its performance in different weather conditions."
As published information implies, this nano coating has passed all the required tests during 6 years of research and development. This technology can also be used for waterproofing of building materials as well as stones. Due to the waterproof property of these nano coatings, coated electrical insulators has high resistance to pollution. Thus, it helps to prevent widespread power outages, especially in cities with challenging weather conditions.
