Abstract

With the rapid development of high-temperature superconducting technology, high-temperature superconducting cables have demonstrated significant potential in the field of power transmission due to their high efficiency and low loss characteristics. This paper reviews the research progress of PPLP materials in the application of high-temperature superconducting cable insulation. The electrical, space charge and thermodynamic characteristics of PPLP used for HTS cable insulation are analyzed. The adaptability of PPLP materials in power transmission, rail transit, extreme environment and other fields is prospected. Findings support HTS cable design and engineering, promoting superconducting transmission industrialization.
