A barium titanate fiber is useful as a filler for a polymer composite piezoelectric body, a polymer composite piezoelectric body has high piezoelectric properties, and a piezoelectric element utilizes the polymer composite piezoelectric body. In the barium titanate fiber, the molar ratio of barium atoms to titanium atoms (Ba/Ti ratio) falls within the range of 1.01 to 1.04. The polymer composite piezoelectric body includes a resin composition containing the barium titanate fiber and a polymer. The piezoelectric element including an electrically conductive layer on one surface or both surfaces of the polymer composite piezoelectric body.

A yarn containing a potential-generating filament. The yarn is constructed such that a positive or negative surface electrical potential is generated by applying an external force to the yarn in an axial direction of the yarn, and constructed such that a controlled surface electrical potential is generated by a maintenance or release of the external force.

There is provided a pressboard for high-voltage devices, the pressboard having a density of 0.6-1.3 g/cm.sup.3 according to IEC60641-2, and including 1-15% microfibrillated cellulose, MFC, based on the total dry weight of the pressboard. There is also provided an insulation element including such pressboard, wherein the pressboard is impregnated with an electrically insulating compound. There is also provided use of such insulation element in a high-voltage device as well as a high-voltage device comprising such insulation element, wherein the high-voltage device may be a power transformer.

A technique facilitates construction and operation of a power cable which may be used to supply power to an electric submersible pumping system downhole into a wellbore. The power cable comprises at least one electrical conductor. Each electrical conductor is insulated with an insulation layer and protected from deleterious fluids by a fluid barrier layer. Further protection is provided by a protective layer disposed around the fluid barrier layer. The protective layer is foamed to provide a cushion layer and to further protect components of the power cable. An armor layer may be disposed around the protective layer.

A fluid composition comprises a triglyceride, having at least one alpha-branched fatty acid residue, wherein each alpha-branched fatty acid residue comprises at least one saturated or mono-unsaturated alkyl chain having a total number of carbon atoms ranging from 12 to 20, and wherein the triglyceride has at least one of (a) a flash point of at least 185° C., (b) a fire point of at least 230° C., (c) a pour point of −25° C. or lower, or (d) a combination thereof. The fluid composition may be useful, for example, as a dielectric fluid and/or as a heat transfer fluid in transformers and other electrical device applications.

A tool for use in a wellbore comprising a seal assembly and a cone member configured to force the seal assembly radially outward into engagement with the wellbore. A shear thickening fluid is disposed within an area formed between the seal assembly and the cone member. The shear thickening fluid is configured to prevent relative movement between the cone member and the seal assembly when the shear thickening fluid is changed from a substantially fluid state to a substantially solid state due to a sudden force applied to the shear thickening fluid, by release of a sheared mechanism for example.
