Aramid based slot liners for low voltage electric motor applications

• The insulation in the stator of a low voltage electric motor has a double purpose: ensuring the electric insulation around the stator wiring as well as permitting a good evacuation of the generated heat. Improving the heat transfer properties of the slot liner within the stator while maintaining its electrical insulation properties allows for more efficient electric motors. This paper presents different types of composites based on an aramid matrix with boron nitride, zinc oxide and aluminum oxide fillers. The effect of the different filler materials on the thermal conductivity and the electric insulation properties of the slot liner are presented. Perspectives on the needs for a life cycle assessment of the slot liner constituents are evoked.
