Purpose/Aim

Polypropylene (PP) insulation is considered the main development direction of environmentally friendly high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) cable owing to its free cross-linking, high melting point and excellent insulation properties. This work focuses on the effect of cooling process on the electrical and mechanical properties of iPP/POE blend insulation.

Experimental/Modeling methods

The cooling rate of iPP/POE blend insulation is 10, 5 and 2.5 ℃/min, and the crystallization morphology is characterized by polarized optical microscopy (POM). The melting enthalpy of the iPP/POE blend insulation is measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) test. Dumbbell shaped specimen is stamped for tensile test with a length of 75 mm, a width of 12.5 mm, and a thickness of 1 mm. The AC voltage of electrical tree experiment is set to 8kV, and the photos electrical tree of samples were taken by the charge coupled device (CCD) lens and saved in the computer for later analysis.

Results/discussion

The spherulite size of PP which crystallizes non-isothermally at a cooling rate of 2.5 ℃/min is largest. The breakdown strength of PP which crystallizes non-isothermally at a cooling rate of 2.5 ℃/min is lowest and the electrical tree growth rate.

Conclusions

It is concluded that increasing cooling rate can reduce the spherulite size of PP and then improve the electrical performance of PP cable insulation.
