  2. Relative permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permittivity

    The relative permittivity (in older texts, dielectric constant) is the permittivity of a material expressed as a ratio with the electric permittivity of a vacuum. A dielectric is an insulating material, and the dielectric constant of an insulator measures the ability of the insulator to store electric energy in an electrical field.

  3. Nylon 12 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_12

    Nylon 12 exhibits properties between short chain aliphatic nylons (e.g., nylon 6 and nylon 66) and polyolefins. [3] At 178-180 °C, the melting point of nylon 12 is the lowest among the important polyamides. Its mechanical properties, such as hardness, tensile strength, and resistance to abrasion, are similar to those of nylon 6 and nylon 66.

  4. Dielectric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric

    A dielectric resonator oscillator (DRO) is an electronic component that exhibits resonance of the polarisation response for a narrow range of frequencies, generally in the microwave band. It consists of a "puck" of ceramic that has a large dielectric constant and a low dissipation factor. Such resonators are often used to provide a frequency ...

  5. Dielectric strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_strength

    Dielectric films tend to exhibit greater dielectric strength than thicker samples of the same material. For instance, the dielectric strength of silicon dioxide films of thickness around 1 μm is about 0.5 GV/m. [3] However very thin layers (below, say, 100 nm) become partially conductive because of electron tunneling.

  6. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    Another common term encountered for both absolute and relative permittivity is the dielectric constant which has been deprecated in physics and engineering [2] as well as in chemistry. [ 3 ] By definition, a perfect vacuum has a relative permittivity of exactly 1 whereas at standard temperature and pressure , air has a relative permittivity of ...

  7. Electrical breakdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_breakdown

    Electrical breakdown in an electric discharge showing the ribbon-like plasma filaments from a Tesla coil.. In electronics, electrical breakdown or dielectric breakdown is a process that occurs when an electrically insulating material (a dielectric), subjected to a high enough voltage, suddenly becomes a conductor and current flows through it.

  8. Electric susceptibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_susceptibility

    In electricity (electromagnetism), the electric susceptibility (; Latin: susceptibilis "receptive") is a dimensionless proportionality constant that indicates the degree of polarization of a dielectric material in response to an applied electric field. The greater the electric susceptibility, the greater the ability of a material to polarize in ...
