IEC EN 60455-2-2 Test for Solvent-Free Polymerizable Resin Compounds Used for Electrical Insulation

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60455-2-2 testing. IEC EN 60455-2-2 is a technical standard that specifies test methods for solvent-free polymerizable resinous compounds used for electrical insulation. This part of the standard summarizes test methods for coating powders for electrical purposes. The standard specifies the conditions and test procedures that must be followed to determine the properties of the insulation material.

The standard covers the following test methods:

• Particle size distribution: This test determines the size distribution of dust particles. It is important as it helps to determine the application method and the homogeneity of the coating.
• Melting range: This test determines the temperature range at which the powder melts. It is important as it helps determine the curing time required for the powder.
• Gel time: This test determines the time it takes for the powder to gel at a given temperature. It is important as it helps determine the curing time required for the powder.
• Viscosity: This test measures the viscosity of the powder at a given temperature. It is important as it helps determine the flow properties of the powder.
• Density: This test determines the density of the powder. It is important as it helps determine the weight of the insulation material.
• Thermal stability: This test measures the powder's ability to withstand high temperatures without decomposition. It is important as it helps determine the suitability of the material for use in high temperature environments.
• Coating thickness: This test measures the thickness of the powder coating after application. It is important as it helps to determine the homogeneity of the coating and the level of insulation the material provides.
• Adhesion: This test determines the strength of the bond between the powder coating and the substrate material. It is important as it helps determine the durability of the coating.

By following the test methods specified in IEC EN 60455-2-2, manufacturers can ensure that their solvent-free polymerizable resinous compounds meet the required standards for electrical insulation.
