In this paper, crosslinked polyethylene-polystyrene (XLPE-PS) composites with different degrees of crosslinking were fabricated by using different crosslinking agent contents and their direct current (DC) breakdown performance at 30~90 °C was investigated. Results show that with the increase of the degree of crosslinking, the crystallinity of XLPE-PS composites decreases gradually, but their DC breakdown strength demonstrates an increasing trend at 30~90 °C and the enhancement also increases with the rise of temperature. And as the degree of crosslinking increases, the elastic modulus of XLPE-PS composites is reduced and the loss tangent peak temperature decreases but the peak shifts to a lower value, which reveals the suppression of the relaxation process for crystallites. It is believed that high DC breakdown strength with good temperature stability for XLPE-PS composites with a larger degree of crosslinking is attributable to the presence of PS and suppression in the formation of crystallites due to crosslinking.

In this paper, we propose a method on improving direct current (DC) dielectric performance by designing a polystyrene (PS) pinning crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) for the application of insulation materials on high voltage direct current (HVDC) extruded cable. Electrical experimental results show that the addition of PS (1–5 phr, parts per hundreds of resin) can significantly reduce DC conductivity and increase DC breakdown strength of XLPE in the test temperature range of 30–90 °C. Microstructure investigation shows PS distributed as particles could participate in the formation of a crosslinking network with the help of a crosslinking agent, thus forming a polymer pinning structure at the interface between XLPE and PS. It is believed that such a special design strengthens the structure of XLPE, which leads to the improved DC dielectric performance at elevated temperatures. Our findings may contribute a new solution for developing HVDC cable insulation materials.

Deformation Diagrams

The analysis of the previous results of the study on concrete stress-strain behavior at elevated temperatures has been carried out. Based on the analysis, the main reasons for strength retrogression and elastic modulus reduction of concrete have been identified. Despite a significant amount of research in this area, there is a large spread in experimental data received, both as a result of compression and tension. In addition, the deformation characteristics of concrete are insufficiently studied: the coefficient of transverse deformation, the limiting relative compression deformation corresponding to the peak load and the almost complete absence of studies of complete deformation diagrams at elevated temperatures. The two testing chambers provided creating the necessary temperature conditions for conducting studies under bending compression and tension have been developed. On the basis of the obtained experimental data of physical and mechanical characteristics of concrete at different temperatures under conditions of axial compression and tensile bending, conclusions about the nature of changes in strength and deformation characteristics have been drawn. Compression tests conducted following the method of concrete deformation complete curves provided obtaining diagrams not only at normal temperature, but also at elevated temperature. Based on the experimental results, dependences of changes in prism strength and elastic modulus as well as an equation for determining the relative deformation and stresses at elevated temperatures at all stages of concrete deterioration have been suggested.

ABSTRACTElectrical properties of thin (12 nm) SiO2 films with and without in-situ deposited poly Si electrodes have been studied. Thin SiO2 films were grown by the rapid thermal oxidation (RTO) process and the poly Si films were deposited by the rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition (RTCVD) technique at 675°C and 800°C. Good electrical properties were observed for SiO2 films with thin in-situ poly Si deposition; the flatband voltage was ∼ -0.86 V, the interface state density was < 2 × 1010/cm2/eV, and breakdown strength was > 10 MV/cm. The properties of RTCVD poly Si were also studied. The grain size was 10-60 rim before anneal and was 50-120 rim after anneal. Voids were found in thin (< 70 nm) RTCVD poly Si films. No difference in either SiO2 properties or poly Si properties was observed for poly Si films deposited at different temperatures.

Polyethylene Blends

There is a long-standing puzzle concerning whether polyethylene blends are a suitable substitution for cable-insulation-used crosslinking polyethylene (XLPE) especially at elevated temperatures. In this paper, we investigate temperature dependence of mechanical, electrical properties of blends with 70 wt % linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and 30 wt % high density polyethylene (HDPE) (abbreviated as 70 L-30 H). Our results show that the dielectric loss of 70 L-30 H is about an order of magnitude lower than XLPE, and the AC breakdown strength is 22% higher than XLPE at 90 °C. Moreover, the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMA) measurement and hot set tests suggest that the blends shows optimal mechanical properties especially at high temperature with considerable temperature stability. Further scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis uncover the reason for the excellent high temperature performance and temperature stability, which can be ascribed to the uniform fine-spherulite structure in 70 L-30 H blends with high crystallinity sustaining at high temperature. Therefore, our findings may enable the potential application of the blends as cable insulation material with higher thermal-endurance ability.

Alkali-free flat panel display glass is produced in large quantity and has excellent electrical insulating properties at high temperature. Aluminum borosilicate glass with alkaline-earth modifier has low sodium content and low dielectric loss (tan δ &lt;0.1 at 250°C), high dielectric breakdown strength (109 V/m) and excellent high temperature stability. In addition, roll-to-roll processing of thin glass sheet has been demonstrated and glass capacitors that are configured in a coil. Excellent high power capability of these glasses was confirmed by analytical, finite element, and finite difference modeling. The modeling work indicates that a combination of hybrid electrode design and effective heat loss at the interface can further extend power capability of glass capacitors. Alkali-free glass is an ideal candidate material for high temperature capacitors.

Cooling Methods

Fires are always known for seriously deteriorating concrete in structures, especially for those with certain carbonation due to long-time service. In this paper, 75 prism specimens were prepared and divided into four groups (three carbonated groups and one uncarbonated group). Specimens were tested under different temperatures (20, 300, 400, 500, 600, and 700°C), exposure times (3, 4, and 6 hours), and cooling methods (water and natural cooling). Surface characteristics, weight loss rate, and residual mechanical properties (strength, initial elastic modulus, peak, and ultimate compressive strains) of carbonated concrete specimens after elevated temperatures were investigated and compared with that of the uncarbonated ones. Results show that the weight loss rates of the carbonated concrete specimens are slightly lower than that of the uncarbonated ones and that the cracks are increased with raising of temperatures. Surface colors of carbonated concrete are significantly changed, but they are not sensitive to cooling methods. Surface cracks can be evidently observed on carbonated specimens when temperature reaches 400°C. Residual compressive strength and initial elastic modulus of carbonated concrete after natural cooling are generally larger than those cooled by water. The peak and ultimate compressive strains of both carbonated and uncarbonated concrete specimens increase after heating, but the values of the latter are greater than that of the former. Finally, the constitutive equation to predict the compressive behaviors of carbonated concrete after high temperatures was established and validated by tests.

Benzyltriethylammonium Chloride

The conductivities of the binary room-temperature molten salt (RTMS) systems ZnCl2-N-nbutylpyridinium chloride (BPC), ZnCl2 -1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (EMIC) and ZnCl2 - benzyltriethylammonium chloride (BTEAC) have been measured at different temperatures and compositions by a d.c. four-probes method. The conductivities of the three RTMS are in the order ZnCl2-EMIC > ZnCl2-BPC > ZnCl2-BTEAC. In ZnCl2-BPC the conductivity at 70 to 150 °C, is maximal for 40 mol% ZnCl2. In ZnCl2 - EMIC, the conductivity below 130 °C is almost constant for 30 to 50 mol% ZnCl2 and has the lowest activation energy 25.21 kJ/mol. For these two systems, the conductivities decrease rapidly beyond 50 mol% ZnCl2 owing to the rapid increase in cross-linking and resultant tightening of the polyelectrolyte structure. As to the ZnCl2-BTEAC system, the conductivities at 110 - 150 °C decrease slowly for 30 - 60 mol% ZnCl2. The conductivities of the ZnCl2-EMICmelt are compared with those of the AlCl3-EMIC melt previously studied. The stability of the ZnCl2-EMIC melt system is explored by the effect of the environment on the conductivity and the Far Transmission Infra Red (FTIR) spectrum. It reveals that the effect is slight, and that the ZnCl2-EMIC melt may be classified as stable.
