description | In this paper, N, N’-m-phenylene dimaleimide (HVA-2) grafted crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation materials with different HVA-2 contents were prepared. The grafting, crosslinking, and crystalline structure were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Soxhlet extraction, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), respectively. The space charge distribution, direct current (DC) breakdown strength, and DC conduction current density were tested and the electronic structure was calculated from first-principles. HVA-2 grafting modification can significantly reduce the accumulation of space charges and the conduction current density of XLPE, but have a negative effect on DC breakdown strength. The polar groups of the grafted HVA-2 anchored on XLPE by the grafting reaction can introduce deep traps densely and evenly in XLPE, which would capture and scatter charge carriers, thus reducing the carrier concentration and mobility and further improving the space charge distribution and reducing conduction current density. However, the grafting of HVA-2 can increase the crosslinking extent of XLPE to make the crystallinity decrease and the crystallization inhomogeous, leading to a certain decrease in the breakdown strength of the grafted XLPE. |
