The subsequent changes occurring in the material will be manifested in both transient and permanent effects that can be measured by suitable test procedures. The establishment of criteria for the evaluation of the radiation endurance of insulating materials is very complex, since such criteria will depend on the total environment and the application in which the materials are used.
