High-voltage infrastructure undergoes a lot of stress. This equipment is not only asked to support the power grid, but also stand up to environmental contaminants, physical demands and vandalism. Whether you’re looking to increase the service life of your high-voltage insulators and distribution materials or swap out your mineral transformer oils for a safer option, silicone technologies from Dow can help.

Due to their hydrophobic nature, silicones resist water longer than other materials and reduce leakage currents. Silicones are easy to install, reduce total system costs and minimize equipment problems and failures. Additional benefits include:
