Gamma and electron beam irradiation effects on SiR-EPDM blends

Gamma and electron beam irradiation effects on SiR-EPDM blends

Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) is widely used as Cable Insulation Material (CIM) due to its good mechanical strength. Silicone Rubber (SiR) is used in high temperature environments due to its good di-electric properties/hydrophobicity. The blending of SiR-EPDM may result in the improvement...
