A recent study of the insulator problem involved in radiation detection instruments disclosed the fact that insulators, in high impedance input circuits, are the predominate source of background noise when subjected to high voltages and high humidities. Methods for eliminating this trouble in some of the commonly used circuit components, and new and superior insulating materials, were found.
