Abstract

There are provided a coating material for electrical equipment, a method for manufacturing a coating material for electrical equipment, and a closed insulating device, capable of suppressing floating and moving around of foreign substances in electrical equipment. A coating material for electrical equipment 20 in an embodiment includes: a matrix resin 50 composed of an epoxy resin; a first filler 10 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 50 and composed of whiskers having a semiconductive specific volume resistivity; a second filler 30 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 50 and composed of particles having a semiconductive specific volume resistivity; and a third filler 40 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 50 and composed of a planar, fibrous, or lamellar substance having insulating properties.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A coating material for electrical equipment, comprising:
a matrix resin composed of an epoxy resin;
a first filler dispersedly contained in the matrix resin and composed of whiskers having a semiconductive specific volume resistivity, each of the whiskers being made of ZnO, each of the whiskers having a tetrapod shape provided with a nucleus part and needle crystal parts extending from the nucleus part in four axial directions;
a second filler dispersedly contained in the matrix resin and composed of particles having a semiconductive specific volume resistivity, the second filler being made of Fe 2 O 3 or Fe 3 O 4 ; and
a third filler dispersedly contained in the matrix resin and composed of a planar, fibrous, or lamellar substance having insulating properties,
wherein the semiconductive specific volume resistivity of the whiskers of the first filler means a range of 1×10 −3 to 1×10 5 Ω·cm,
wherein the insulating properties mean a specific volume resistivity in a range of 1×10 6 to 1×10 18 Ω·cm,
wherein the third filler enters space between the first filler and the second filler to thereby disperse the first filler and the second filler in the matrix resin,
wherein the particles of the second filler come into contact with the first filler to form a three-dimensional conductive path.

2. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein the planar third filler is made of talc or boron nitride.

3. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein the fibrous third filler is composed of potassium titanate whiskers or glass milled fibers.

4. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein the lamellar third filler is made of mica or smectite.

5. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein a surface of each of the whiskers constituting the first filler has been subjected to a titanate coupling treatment.

6. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first filler is contained by 1 to 60 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the matrix resin.

7. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein a curing agent that cures the matrix resin is added.

8. The coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 ,
wherein the matrix resin further contains a diluting solvent.

9. A closed insulating device, comprising:
a conductor extended in one direction;
a metal container covering a periphery of the conductor with a predetermined gap from the conductor, and filled with an insulating gas; and
a coating layer composed of the coating material for electrical equipment according to claim 1 formed on an inner wall surface of the metal container.
