A major advantage of adding MWCNTs is that the key properties of the pristine epoxy are largely retained or even bettered. How the synthesis process affects the dispersion of the nanofillers and their properties is studied. Ideas from percolation theory are used to study and understand the nature of the variation of dc electrical conductivity with filler content and that of ac conductivity with both filler content and frequency. The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness over a broad microwave frequency range is investigated. Tensile strength, fracture properties, and thermal conductivity of the nanocomposites are also investigated. Thus, the multifunctionality of MWCNT-epoxy composites is critically assessed. Overall, we demonstrate that a deep understanding of the conduction mechanisms has been achieved. Also, the limitations of these materials have been identified and potential applications are mapped out. Their use as tough and durable electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) is indicated. It is also shown that the major impediments to more versatile applications of these materials are their poor thermal conductivity and loss of flowability with increasing MWCNT content.","PeriodicalId":13247,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation","volume":"32 3","pages":"1324-1332"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144213643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

XLPE cable will deteriorate under the action of electricity, heat, and other factors for a long time, endangering the operation safety of the power grid. The trap characteristic is a significant means to reveal the mechanism of cable deterioration. To explore the relationship between cable deterioration and trap characteristics, this article uses the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) method to analyze the trap characteristics of XLPE cables with the service life of 0, 15, and 30 years, respectively, and the sound velocity of XLPE was carried out under different temperature profiles. With the increase in operating life, the internal defects of the XLPE gradually expand, and the accumulation of charge increases significantly. The sound velocity increases gradually at the same temperature and the breakdown field strength gradually decreases. Taking 293 K as an example, compared with 0 A, the breakdown field strength of 15 and 30 A decreased by about 16.0% and 16.4%, respectively, and the corresponding medium sound velocity increased by about 5.89% and 13.71%, respectively. The results take the increase degree of sound velocity of polymer insulating medium as the characteristic parameter to characterize the deterioration level of cable, which provides a theoretical basis for evaluating the deterioration level of cable.","PeriodicalId":13247,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation","volume":"32 3","pages":"1263-1270"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144213644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the significant challenges faced by the peaking capacitor is the reduction in the flashover tolerance strength of the dielectric film. This article simulates the electromagnetic environment of dielectric film and carries out flashover experiments to study the degradation characteristics of polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films under nanosecond pulse current injection. The effects of damage type and degree on the flashing process are analyzed by particle-in-cell Monte-Carlo-collision (PIC-MCC) method. The results show that the deformation characteristics of the film surface under nanosecond pulse current have a key influence on the flashing tolerance strength. Specifically, the raised and folded deformation of the PP film can increase the electron emission coefficient of the surface and expand the ionization range of the gas, which significantly enhances the number of electrons and reduces the flashover voltage. The microporous deformation of PET film increases the area of electron collision, but the pitted deformation restricts the diffusion of low-energy electrons. As a result, the number of electrons remains balanced, leading to a more stable flashover strength. The simulation can predict the flashover voltage of dielectric films and highly consistent with the experiments, revealing the deterioration mechanism of the film’s flashover tolerance under the action of multiple flashovers. This provides analytical methods and a theoretical basis for improving the flashover tolerance strength of dielectric films.","PeriodicalId":13247,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation","volume":"32 3","pages":"1297-1304"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144213523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, we have considered a 12-kV electric cable model with XLPE internal insulation, coated with two semiconductor layers, one inside and one outside. A pair of vented water trees, denoted as w1 and w2, is developed from these semiconductor layers. It is assumed that the permittivity and the conductivity are homogeneously distributed within the two water trees. Our study was carried out under COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS environment, using the finite element method. As main results under ac voltage, the increase of applied frequency blocks the ability of the space charge to move through the insulation, affecting both space charge density dynamic motion and electric field distribution. On the contrary, a water trees conductivity increase releases the space charge accumulated at the interfaces of the two semiconductor layers. In fact, this process amplifies the activity and dynamic behavior of such charge, facilitating its penetration into the insulation through the semiconductor layers before completely moving to two water tree tips. The same phenomenon, resulting in the complete migration of the accumulated charge from the semiconductor layers to the tips of the water trees, has also been observed in dc. The amount of this accumulated space charge leads to the electric field reinforcement especially at the XLPE insulation/water trees tips critical interfaces. This situation could generate an ac or dc electrical tree. This latter can only be initiated from the water tree tip.","PeriodicalId":13247,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation","volume":"32 3","pages":"1343-1352"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144213586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
