LDPE doped with nano-MgO can effectively suppress the space charge accumulation in the nanocomposite under DC applied field, and this suppression was affected greatly by the prepared nano-MgO particles. In this paper, the influence of nanocomposite of LDPE doped with nano-MgO by using different preparation methods on their space charge, and volume resistivity as well as DC breakdown strength was researched. The results showed that size of nano-MgO prepared by the traditional heating method was about 22.74 nm, while being only about 12.76 nm by the microwave-assisted method. When the nano-MgO content in the composite was 2 wt% by weight, the space charge accumulation in this composite was obviously reduced; meanwhile both the volume resistivity and DC breakdown strength were enhanced. When nano-MgO was prepared by the microwave-assisted method, the electric properties of its LDPE nanocomposite were obviously better than those of nano-MgO prepared by traditional heating method.

This paper focuses on the space charge characteristics in TiO2/cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) nanocomposites; the unmodified and modified by dimethyloctylsilane (MDOS) TiO2 nanoparticles were added to XLPE matrix with different mass concentrations (1 wt%, 3 wt%, and 5 wt%). The scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that the MDOS coupling agent could improve the compatibility between TiO2 nanoparticles and XLPE matrix to some extent and reduce the agglomeration of TiO2 nanoparticles compared with unmodified TiO2 nanoparticles; the volume resistivity testing indicated that the volume resistivity of TiO2/XLPE nanocomposites was higher than Pure-XLPE and increased with the increase of filling concentrations. According to the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) measurements, it was concluded that the space charge accumulation was suppressed by filling TiO2 nanoparticles and the distribution of electric field in samples was improved greatly. In addition, it was found that the injection of homocharge was more obvious in MDOS-TiO2/XLPE than that in UN-TiO2/XLPE and the homocharge injection decreased with the increase of filling concentration.

Acetophenone can significantly improve the dielectric properties of polyethylene (PE) insulation materials. However, it easily migrates from the PE due to its poor compatibility with the material, which limits its application. In this paper, the functional units of acetophenone were modified in polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-polystyrene (SEBS) by an acetylation reaction, and SEBS was used as the carrier to inhibit the migration of acetophenone. The number of functional units in the acetylated SEBS (Ac-SEBS) was measured by 1H NMR and the effect of the acetylation degree of SEBS on its compatibility with PE was studied. Meanwhile, the effects of Ac-SEBS on PE’s direct current (DC) breakdown strength and space charge accumulation characteristics were investigated. It is demonstrated that Ac-SEBS can significantly improve the field strength of the DC breakdown and inhibit the accumulation of space charge in the PE matrix. This work provides a new approach for the application of aromatic compounds as voltage stabilizers in DC insulation cable materials.

Electrical Insulation Properties

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 Fat from meat, dairy, and egg products was extracted by using Microwave-Assisted Process (MAP) technology under atmospheric pressure conditions. Fat content was determined gravimetrically after extraction with microwaves and organic solvents that are transparent to microwaves relative to the sample. (In situ hydrolysis was performed for dairy and egg products.) Fat from the food sample migrated completely to the extractant when samples were irradiated with focused microwave for a total of 3 min for meat products, 1 min for dairy products, and 4 min for egg products. Unlike current methods used for determining fat in meat products, the microwave-assisted method does not require a dry sample, because moisture in the sample (around 75%) enhances the efficiency of extraction. No preprocessing was required for meat samples other than homogenization, which is critical, as it is for other current methods. In addition to speed and ease of use, the features of this technology are low solvent consumption, low energy consumption, reproducibility, and recoveries similar to or even better than those of conventional extraction methods.

This paper describes the effects of α-Al2O3 nanosheets on the direct current voltage breakdown strength and space charge accumulation in crosslinked polyethylene/α-Al2O3 nanocomposites. The α-Al2O3 nanosheets with a uniform size and high aspect ratio were synthesized, surface-modified, and characterized. The α-Al2O3 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-Al2O3 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 × 10−13 S/m to 1.04 × 10−13 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-Al2O3 nanosheets effectively improved the direct current breakdown strength and reduced the conductivity of crosslinked polyethylene/α-Al2O3 nanocomposites.

To suppress space charge accumulation and improve direct current (DC) electrical properties of insulation materials, crosslinked polyethylene modified with 2-(4-benzoyl-3-hydroxyphenoxy) ethyl acrylate (XLPE/BHEA) containing polar functional groups was prepared by melt blending. The gel content, thermal elongation, tensile strength, elongation at break, elasticity modulus, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) measurement results demonstrated that the BHEA could slightly enhance the crosslinking of polyethylene (PE) and affect the mechanical properties and crystallization of XLPE, and the BHEA molecule was not easy to precipitate from XLPE after the crosslinking process. XLPE modified with 3.0 phr (parts per hundreds by weight) BHEA could effectively suppress space charge accumulation, reduce DC conduction and improve DC breakdown strength of XLPE at a higher temperature. Deeper traps were introduced in XLPE/BHEA composites due to the polar functional groups in BHEA, which could raise the potential charge injection barrier and reduce the charge carrier number and mobility to suppress space charge accumulation and reduce the conduction current density.

Abstract A fast, simple, and energy-saving microwave-assisted approach was successfully developed to prepare carbon microspheres. The carbon microspheres with a uniform particle size and good dispersity were prepared using glucose as the raw material and HCl as the dehydrating agent at low temperature (90°C) in an open system with the assistance of microwave heating. The carbon microspheres were characterized by elemental analysis, XRD, SEM, FTIR, TG, and Raman. The results showed that the carbon microspheres prepared under the condition of 18.5% (v/v) HCl and heating for 30 min by microwave had a narrow size distribution. The core–shell structure of the carbon core and TiO2 shell was prepared with (NH4)2TiF6, H3BO3 using the microwave-assisted method. The hollow TiO2 microspheres with good crystallinity and high photocatalytic properties were successfully prepared by sacrificing the carbon microspheres.
