Rexolite
Rexolite is a rigid, transparent insulating material made by an irradiation
cross-linking process. Rexolite is one of the best dielectric materials known with a dissipation
factor 200 times better than nylon.
In contrast with other high temperature, ultrahigh frequency dielectrics,
Rexolite has the rigidity and ability to resist deformation under load.
These characteristics are extremely important where assembled
insulators must withstand compression without yielding and loosening
over long periods of time.
Rexolite materials are cast in liquid form and cured to make sheets, then
ground to size, coated with a patented adhesive polymer and clad
in a laminating press. Homogeneous and isotropic electrically
as well as radiation resistant, they are available clad with electrodeposited
or rolled copper on one or both sides.
Because it is cross linked polystyrene, rexolite has excellent
machinability and shock resistance when compared to other unreinforced
thermoset materials.
Rexolite is available in two standard formulations
Rexolite 1422 has a combination of good physical and excellent electrical properties
including low and stable dielectric constant. These properties
make this material suitable for use in microwave lenses as well
as for precision components.
