This paper investigates the electrical, thermal and mechanical properties as well as the environmental performance of polymer cementitious composites (PCCs) as sustainable coating materials for underground power cables and as high-voltage insulators. Particular focus is placed on the optimised mix design and the effect of the manufacturing method on the performance of PCCs, incorporating liquid styrene and acrylic (SA) monomers, wollastonite and muscovite. Microstructural investigations, together with results from strength tests, indicate that the manufacturing method is a key performance parameter. Experimental results show that PCC mixes containing 25% SA emulsion, 12.5% wollastonite and no muscovite provide the most favourable dielectric properties from the mixes investigated. The PCC material has a dielectric strength up to 16.5 kV/mm and a dielectric loss factor lower than 0.12. Additional experiments also show that PCC has good thermal stability and thermal conductivity. The mechanical strength tests indicate that PCC specimens possess reliable strengths which are applicable in structural design. Environmental assessments also show that PCCs possess significantly lower embodied energy and embodied carbon than conventional plastic insulating materials.

Polyethylene (PE) insulations have a wide applicability in the insulation of both underground pipelines and underground power cables. In this context, by coupled techniques of thermal analysis (TG/DTG+DTA) and microbiological determinations, have been studied thermooxidability and resistance to moulds action of some polyethylene sorts. Following the processing of the experimental data obtained by thermal analysis it was found that during the applied heat treatment (100 grd C), in the first approx. 380 h, there is a growth of LDPE (low density polyethylene) polymerization degree by elongation of the aliphatic chains, after which the predominant process consists in the structure crosslinking. For MDPE (mean density polyethylene) samples, during the thermal treatment applied, it was found that the crosslinking degree of polyethylene (PE) increased without significant molecular weight change (with all the related consequences of increasing the weight of the tertiary and quaternary carbon atoms in the molecule). Microbiological determinations have highlighted that the resistance to filamentous fungal action of LPDE is higher than that of the investigated MDPE. It was found that after heat treatment applied (1000 h and 100 oC), both at LDPE and at MDPE, decreases the resistance to moulds action is decreased. It has also been found that moulds action resistance is substantially decreased when inoculated culture media and PE samples are exposed to an alternative electric field of 50 Hz - 6 Vrms/cm.
