Lanca, M. C., E. R. Neagu, J. N. Marat-Mendes, and Ieee Comparative study of space charge in aged low-density polyethylene and crosslinked polyethylene., 2004. AbstractWebsite

Polyethylene is one of the most widely used polymeric insulators in medium and high voltage power cables. However the importance of space charge distribution and its influence on the electrical aging in this polymer is not fully understood. The very good insulating properties of the material implying very long relaxation times (few days and even longer are usual) and low currents (few pA or below) make individual measurements of isothermal charge/discharge currents and thermostimulated currents difficult to analyze and reproduce. A single type of measurements does not take into account the space charge that remains trapped for long times. A combined procedure of isothermal and non-isothermal current measurements developed for high insulating polymers was used for low density polyethylene (LDPE) and crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) films electrically aged. The press-molded LDPE and XLPE films were electrically aged under similar conditions using an AC electric field while immersed in a sodium chloride aqueous solution at constant temperature (electro-thermal aging). The use of the combined procedure for current measurement allowed obtaining information about space charge traps, activation energies and relaxation times for both LDPE and XLPE. This data was used to compare electrical aging under similar conditions for the two types of polyethylene.

The variation of the structure, morphology and the electrical properties of thin amorphous silicon films caused by Rapid Thermal Annealing is studied. The films annealed at 1200°C for 2 minutes change their structure to polycrystalline and as a result their resistivity decreases by 4 orders of magnitude. Due to the small thickness of the as deposited amorphous silicon the obtained poly-Si is strongly irregular and has many discontinuities in its texture.

Using a recently developed procedure combining isothermal and non-isothermal current measurements space charge trapping and transport in LDPE was successfully studied. Unaged, thermally and electrically aged samples were investigated. The samples were conditioned before each measurement in order to obtain reproducible results. In the non-isothermal measurements appeared a broad peak (40degreesC to 50degreesC) that was possible to decompose into two or three peaks (35, 45 and 65degreesC). At even higher temperature another peak was sometimes present (85degreesC) depending on the prior sample conditioning. The space charge is trapped near the surface in deep traps (maximum depth of approximate to 15 mum). Relaxation times, mobilities and activation energies have been calculated for different charging/discharging conditions. For unaged samples the reproducibility of the results was poor while for the aged polyethylene it was quite good, meaning that aging helps conditioning. In the electrically aged LDPE there is a decrease of conductivity and the broad peak of the non-isothermal spectra shows a slight shift towards higher temperatures when compared with the data found in the thermally aged polymer.
