6、 to and cured on electrical components providingelectrical,mechanical,and environmental protection.3.1.1.1 DiscussionThere are two types of electrical insu-lating varnishes:solvent-containing and solventless.Solvent-containing types are solutions,dispersions,or emulsions of apolymer or a mixture of
7、polymers in a volatile,nonreactableliquid.Solventless types are liquid resin systems free ofvolatile,nonreactable solvents.3.1.2Refer to Terminology D1711 for definitions of otherterms.4.Significance and Use4.1 Individual varnishes behave differently when applied tothe same fibrous-or film-wrapped m
