This is a polymer-based dielectric material with a dielectric constant of approximately 1.71, likely a non-polar organic polymer such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or a similar hydrocarbon-based polymer. Materials in this family are chosen for electrical insulation applications where low permittivity and minimal signal loss are critical. Common industrial uses include cable insulation, printed circuit board substrates, capacitor films, and microwave-transparent housings; engineers select these materials when low dielectric loss, good electrical breakdown resistance, and cost-effectiveness are priorities.
