Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•Should I Ditch My Gas Appliances? They’re a big source of greenhouse gases. Here’s what to think about if you’re considering switching to electric.11·8 months agoy’all are still using gas stoves? maybe they’re just not popular where I’m from.

3·8 months agonever used a Sony Walkman! so that’s 1 point for me…
nice meme hoser.

I mean, there’s no such thing as a perfect insulator
I’m well aware that nothing is perfect. i was talking about definitions :p
It definitely resists the movement of free elections through… But think a capacitor let’s ions flow, grease is a sort of fluid…
the two terminals of a capacitor are insulated from eachother but they can pass alternating current via capacitive coupling. I’m not sure what you mean about flowing ions in grease. do you mean electrolyte? like in a battery?
So I’m thinking it must be a material that let’s atoms move around to some degree, but resists the transfer of electrons
you’re describing electrical resistance :p
so to my understanding the ideal dielectric is a perfect insulator. dielectrics however have some free electrons and the ability to become polarized in the presence of an electric field. this has the benefit of increasing the charge carrying surface area in something like a capacitor.
so i think dielectrics are a subset of insulators and by definition do not pass current/free electrons.
It’s dielectric, meaning it is conductive depending on how you run current through it
silicon is a semiconductor! dielectric is just a fancy term for an electrical insulator.
:.dielectric grease is NOT CONDUCTIVE.
