The experiments were performed using a highly developed experimental system allowing for the measurement, monitoring and controlling of the current flowing through the sample, the voltage across the sample and the ambient temperature for two samples simultaneously. The measurements were made using different thermal profiles in a temperature range from 40/spl deg/C to 80/spl deg/C and at different electric fields ranging from 1.7x10/sup 5/ Vcm/sup -1/ to 3.3x10/sup 5/Vcm/sup -1/. The present test procedure allows the achievement of a reasonable steady state after a controlled lengthy conditioning procedure for more than 10 days. Results indicate that the current flowing in the PE samples has an activation energy which is field dependent. As for the doped material, it was not possible to obtain a single activation energy at the present experimental conditions. Moreover, the current/time characteristics in the material seem to be very different when compared with the corresponding characteristics in the plain material. The results are discussed in terms of the available concepts of electrical conduction in polymers.","PeriodicalId":277387,"journal":{"name":"1991 Annual Report.

HTPB, used as a binder in solid rocket propellants, is an elastomer over the temperature range of these studies, -60/spl deg/C to +70/spl deg/ relative humidity of 25%. Results are presented on isothermal current-time relaxation upon step charging field (8.8x10/sup 3/ V/cm) and short-circuit discharging, each for 170 minutes. The measurement indicated major changes in electrical behavior, for all compositions, in the temperature interval of 0/spl deg/C to 10/spl deg/C, including mirror symmetry of the decay curves at 0/spl deg/C and below and lack of this symmetry at temperatures of 10/spl deg/C and above. From x-ray diffractometry study, the transition temperature corresponds to the crystallization temperature of HPTB. The isothermal frequency dependence of the dielectric loss were obtained by the fast fourier transform technique of the appropriate relaxation data. Finally, dielectric properties are related to charging at interfaces (crystalline/amorphous phases of HTPB) to ionic conduction.","PeriodicalId":277387,"journal":{"name":"1991 Annual Report.

All polymers were fully amorphous and transparent and exhibited only one glass temperature. The polymers were subjected to external partial discharges (PD). The resistance towards PD of the various polymers was found to depend strongly on the monomeric structure, i.e. on the nature of the substituents. Complementary PD experiments confirmed that minor variation in molecular mass are of no importance for the PD resistence. It is found that halogen substituents decrease the PD resistance significantly and a possible mechanism is discussed. The time to breakdown for copolymers of styrene and pentafluorostyrene (PFS) decreased monotonically with increasing PFS content.","PeriodicalId":277387,"journal":{"name":"1991 Annual Report.

Considerable work on EL in polyethylene has indicated that EL is both a symptom and a direct cause of electric tree initiation [1,2]. Furthermore, the study of EL may provide information on the nature and role of charge carriers in the electric treeing process. Two mechanisms for EL have been proposed: electron-hole recombination and collision excitation. As suggested by Coisson [3], one might distinguish between these two processes by measuring the effect of applied voltage on the spectral response of EL. If increasing the voltage results in a shift in the EL activity to more energetic wavelengths, then collision excitation is indicated. As part of a major investigation into EL from epoxy [4], experiments were performed to measure the effect of voltage on the spectral response.","PeriodicalId":277387,"journal":{"name":"1991 Annual Report.
