Electrical Breakdown Mechanism of ENB-EPDM Cable Insulation Based on Density Functional Theory

The ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) is utilized in high voltage direct current (HVDC) cable accessories due to its exceptional insulation properties. The microscopic reactions and space charge characteristics of EPDM under electric fields are studied using density functional theory. The resu...
