Elboard HDLP, HDLC
Differences between the two Variants
HDLP is laminated with polyester resin (dry process). It has the higher mechanical strength of the two materials. Water diffusion and oil impregnation across the laminations is virtually impossible. Processing of large bodies of the material may therefore be facilitated by drilling diffusion holes through the material (see examples under the tab with machined press-plates).
HDLC is laminated with casein glue (water-based). The mechanical strength is somewhat lower than for HDLP. The original moisture content of the material as delivered is higher than for HDLP, but diffusion of moisture and oil impregnation is possible (although slow) across the laminations. The material is preferred for certain applications with relatively high dielectric stress.
