A solid composite having locally micro-tailored structure can be produced by curing liquid polymeric suspensions in an electric field. The redistribution effect of the field-induced forces exceeds the effect of centrifugation, presently employed to manufacture functionally graded materials. Moreover, unlike centrifugational sedimentation, one can electrically rearrange the inclusions in desired targeted areas. The applied electric field can be employed to produce a composite having uniformly oriented structure or only modify the material in selected regions. This technology enables polymeric composites to be locally micro-tailored for given design objectives. We discuss electrical and rheological inteactions in liquid suspensions. Relationships between microstructure and mechanical properties of the obtained functionally graded composites are presented.

Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) present a solution to control electrical stresses in high voltage applications. In this paper, a concise review is presented on the FGMs for spacers in gas-insulated systems. FGMs offer the possibility of a more even electric field distribution and thus a viable solution for industrial applications. FGMs are investigated here primarily as materials for permittivity control. Some aspects of FGMs are discussed as well as some thoughts on future challenges.
