This paper describes the effects of α-AlO nanosheets on the direct current voltage breakdown strength and space charge accumulation in crosslinked polyethylene/α-AlO nanocomposites. The α-AlO nanosheets with a uniform size and high aspect ratio were synthesized, surface-modified, and characterized. The α-AlO nanosheets were uniformly distributed into a crosslinked polyethylene matrix by mechanical blending and hot-press crosslinking. Direct current breakdown testing, electrical conductivity tests, and measurements of space charge indicated that the addition of α-AlO nanosheets introduced a large number of deep traps, blocked the charge injection, and decreased the charge carrier mobility, thereby significantly reducing the conductivity (from 3.25 × 10 S/m to 1.04 × 10 S/m), improving the direct current breakdown strength (from 220 to 320 kV/mm) and suppressing the space charge accumulation in the crosslinked polyethylene matrix. Besides, the results of direct current breakdown testing and electrical conductivity tests also showed that the surface modification of α-AlO nanosheets effectively improved the direct current breakdown strength and reduced the conductivity of crosslinked polyethylene/α-AlO nanocomposites.
本文描述了α-AlO纳米片对交联聚乙烯/α-AlO纳米复合材料中直流电压击穿强度和空间电荷积累的影响。合成了尺寸均匀且长径比高的α-AlO纳米片,对其进行了表面改性和表征。通过机械共混和热压交联将α-AlO纳米片均匀分布在交联聚乙烯基体中。直流击穿测试、电导率测试和空间电荷测量表明,添加α-AlO纳米片引入了大量深陷阱,阻挡了电荷注入,降低了载流子迁移率,从而显著降低了电导率(从3.25×10 S/m降至1.04×10 S/m),提高了直流击穿强度(从220 kV/mm提高到320 kV/mm),并抑制了交联聚乙烯基体中的空间电荷积累。此外,直流击穿测试和电导率测试结果还表明,α-AlO纳米片的表面改性有效提高了交联聚乙烯/α-AlO纳米复合材料的直流击穿强度并降低了其电导率。
