Testing for Reliable Insulation Performance

At Kiyo R&D Laboratory, we evaluate the electrical behavior of materials under real-world operating conditions to ensure safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance.

Our electrical properties testing validates how plastics, rubber, coatings, and insulating materials perform when exposed to voltage, current, moisture, and surface contamination.

From component insulation to ESD control and high-voltage applications, we deliver precise, standards-driven electrical performance data trusted by manufacturers and OEMs.

Plastic Electrical Properties Testing

At KIYO R&D Center and Laboratory, we specialize in comprehensive testing of plastic electrical properties. Our advanced facilities and experienced team of experts enable us to deliver accurate and reliable results to assess the electrical performance and characteristics of plastic materials. Electrical properties testing is essential for evaluating the behavior of plastic materials when exposed to electrical currents or used in electrical applications

Some of Our Electrical Properties Testing Services

We evaluate insulation, resistivity, dielectric strength, and tracking resistance to ensure electrical safety and performance.

Dielectric Strength

We measure the maximum voltage a plastic material can withstand before electrical breakdown occurs. This test evaluates insulation strength and the material’s ability to resist electrical stress under high voltage conditions.

Dielectric Constant

This test determines a plastic material’s ability to store electrical energy relative to vacuum. Dielectric constant is critical for applications involving capacitors, electronic components, and insulating materials.

Volume Resistivity

We determine the resistance of plastic materials to the flow of electric current through their volume. This test helps assess the material’s effectiveness as an electrical insulator and its ability to prevent internal current leakage.

Surface Resistivity

Surface resistivity measures the resistance of a plastic material to the flow of electric current along its surface. This property is critical for controlling static charge buildup and preventing surface leakage.

Tracking Resistance

This test assesses a plastic material’s ability to resist the formation of conductive paths on the surface when exposed to electrical stress, moisture, or contaminants. It is critical for evaluating electrical safety and preventing short circuits.

Flame Resistance

We evaluate the flame resistance and self-extinguishing behavior of plastic materials. This test is essential for applications where fire safety and resistance to ignition are critical.

Comparative Tracking Index (CTI)

CTI testing determines the resistance of plastic materials to electrical tracking on the surface under contaminated conditions. This test is essential for electrical safety and fire prevention.

Electrical Properties Testing

Electrical properties testing evaluates how materials behave under electrical stress, including insulation strength, resistivity, dielectric performance, and resistance to tracking or arcing.
