绝缘的
able to contain an electric field without conducting (= passing along) electricity
Dielectric grease can be applied to the exposed metal parts of virtually any electrical connection to seal and protect it. 介电润滑脂几乎可以涂在任何电线的裸露的金属部分上,起到密封和保护的作用。
The polymers are dielectric, meaning they are not conductors of electric currents but act as vehicles for the registration of electric fields. 这种聚合物是绝缘体,这意味着它不是电流的导体,而是电场的载体。
