Experimental observations using transparent cells and post-test analyses of the end-edge contacts show that the disconnection is due to erosion caused by electric sparks. The sparks are a consequence of the irregular nature of the contacts and of high intensities of the current flowing through them. Results of laboratory tests show that the degradation of the contacts is related to the peak value of the current pulses, in agreement with the above explanation. In addition, the results confirm that the degradation is not related to the energy content of the applied pulses.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6450,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials","volume":"60 1","pages":"466-469 vol.1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91237903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was found that a PI LB film becomes a good electrical insulator even when the number of deposited layers is five. From capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurement, it was found that a SQ-C20 multilayered film is depleted at the interface between the PI layer and the SQ-C20 layer even when the biasing voltage was zero millivolts, because positive excess charges are displaced from the gate-Au electrode to the PI layer as deposited. The PI layer incorporated in the junctions makes a significant contribution to the electrical conduction, and asymmetric current-voltage (I-V) characteristics were obtained for the junctions.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6450,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials","volume":"295 1","pages":"189-192 vol.1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75799844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The following relations were investigated in air and in vacuum: the dependence of surface resistivity on the amount of deposited copper, the dependence of surface resistivity on voltage, and flashover voltage as a function of surface resistivity. Coating the insulator with copper may cause both an increase (176%) and a decrease (59%) of flashover voltage in vacuum, whereas in air the influence of surface resistivity within the range of 10/sup 8/-10/sup 20/ Omega -cm/cm was not observed.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6450,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials","volume":"69 1","pages":"627-630 vol.1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88454302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The electrical properties of epoxy-filler composites are greatly affected by the interfaces in various ways depending on applied field, temperature, carrier species, and mechanical stress. At low temperature, electronic carriers transported from the epoxy layer in epoxy-alumina composites can pass through the epoxy-alumina interface and move in the alumina bulk, increasing the conduction current in the alumina, but they are accumulated at the interface and lead to interfacial polarization at room temperature. At low fields and low temperature, electronic carriers from the alumina layer can pass through the epoxy-alumina interface and increase the conduction current in the epoxy resin, but they are accumulated at the interface at high field and the conduction is explained by the Maxwell-Wagner model. At room temperature, electronic carriers from the alumina layer are blocked by the potential barrier at the interface. However, electronic carriers from the epoxy layer can pass through the epoxy-silica interface and increase the conduction current in the silica at low and room temperature.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6450,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials","volume":"19 1","pages":"619-622 vol.1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88642365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rotation of the inner cylinder provides controlled turbulent flow. This turbulent mixing transports electric charge from the electrical double layer at the liquid/solid interfaces to the oil volume. Measurements of the volume charge density are performed using an absolute charge sensor, which brings a sample of fluid from the turbulent core into a Faraday cage. In this facility, the temperature can be controlled from 15 degrees C to 140 degrees C and vacuum drying is used to reduce the moisture level below 1% in the pressboard. The oil conductivity and moisture content can be monitored continuously. Transient measurements with a step change in temperature have shown that the volume charge density follows the temperature.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6450,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":"867-870 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77215767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
