Modified crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) with appreciably enhanced DC electrical insulation properties has been developed by chemical modification of grafting chloroacetic acid allyl ester (CAAE), exploring the trapping mechanism of charge transport inhibition. The bound state traps deriving from grafted molecule are analyzed by first-principles calculations, in combination with the electrical DC conductivity and dielectric breakdown strength experiments to study the underlying mechanism of improving the electrical insulation properties. In contrast to pure XLPE, the XLPE-graft-CAAE represents significantly suppressed space charge accumulation, increased breakdown strength, and reduced conductivity. The substantial deep traps are generated in XLPE-graft-CAAE molecules by polar group of grafted CAAE and accordingly decrease charge mobility and raise charge injection barrier, consequently suppressing space charge accumulation and charge carrier transport. The well agreement of experiments and quantum mechanics calculations suggests a prospective material modification strategy for achieving high-voltage polymer dielectric materials without nanotechnology difficulties as for nanodielectrics.

ABSTRACT To satisfy some special demands of many applications in the fields of aerospace and the electronic industry, low temperature resistant and high electrical insulation chloroprene rubber (CR) was prepared by blending pristine CR with different weight ratios of butadiene rubber (BR). The low temperature resistance, electrical insulation properties, and mechanical properties of CR/BR blends were investigated. With increasing BR content, the low temperature resistance and electrical insulation properties were improved, whereas the tensile strength and elongation at break decreased. For the CR/BR (65/35) blend, filled with SiO2, the brittleness temperature (Tb) was reduced to −61 °C and the high electrical insulation properties were obtained without sacrificing mechanical properties too much. The tan δ plots of CR/BR blends, investigated by dynamic mechanical analysis, also revealed that BR could reduce glass transition temperature (Tg) and improve low temperature resistance of CR. The phase contrast microscope images of CR/BR blends demonstrated that the phase structure of the blends changed with increasing BR content. Furthermore, the fracture surfaces of CR/BR blends, observed by scanning electron microscopy, showed that the compatibility of CR/BR blends was poor although the CR/BR blends were homogeneous in macrostructure.
