Department of Electronics Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology (UET) Peshawar (Abbottabad Campus), Abbottabad 22010, Pakistan.
The emergence of micro and nano-based inorganic oxide fillers with optimal filler-loadings further enhances the required insulation characteristics of neat epoxy. During manufacturing and service application, insulators and dielectrics face mechanical stresses which may alter their basic characteristics. Keeping this in mind, the facts' influence of mechanical stresses and fillers on dielectric properties of polymeric insulators of two epoxy/silica composites were fabricated and thoroughly analyzed for dielectric characteristics under ramped mechanical compressions relative to the unfilled sample.

Article Synopsis
- * Adding fillers like micro-silica or nanosilica improves the material's durability and hydrophobicity under specific conditions.
- * Among the tested systems, nanocomposites with 5% nanosilica demonstrated the best performance in maintaining structural stability and hydrophobic behavior against aging.

The Upper Indus Basin (UIB) is a major source of supplying water to different areas because of snow and glaciers melt and is also enduring the regional impacts of global climate change. The expected changes in temperature, precipitation and snowmelt could be reasons for further escalation of the problem. Therefore, estimation of hydrological processes is critical for UIB.
