   Abstract : There is currently a need to increase the voltage level in high voltage transmission and distribution systems in order to transmit power in a more efficient way. However, the insulation of the conductor in high voltage alternating current (HVAC) cables needs to be improved in order to withstand these high voltages. READ MORE

3. 2. Investigation of the dielectric breakdown strength of polymer nanocomposites

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

   Author : Mattias Karlsson; [2014]
   Keywords : breakdown; polyethylene;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to investigate the possibility of enhancing the dielectric breakdown strength (DBS) of low density polyethylene (LDPE) with addition of voltage stabilizing additives. In the first part of the thesis, the influence of various process parameters on the alternating current DBS of pure LDPE and LDPE containing either 3 or 30 wt% magnesium oxide nanoparticles was investigated.
