Abstract EN
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is a thermosetting material that cannot be recycled at the end of its lifetime.
This study investigated the potential of syndiotactic polypropylene (sPP)/silica as an ecofriendly extruded insulation system for HVDC cables.
We investigated the morphology, Fourier transform infrared, and thermal, thermomechanical, and electrical behaviors of sPP modified with 0.5–3% nanosilica.
We found that the silica/sPP nanocomposite without cross-linking offered a suitable mechanical modulus at room temperature and sufficient intensity at high temperatures, and adding nanosilica modified by a silane coupling agent to the sPP resulted in significant DC resistivity and space charge improvement.
The optimal nanosilica content in the sPP was determined by balancing the mechanical and thermomechanical characteristics and the DC resistivity.
The sPP/silica nanocomposite reported here shows great potential as a candidate insulation material for future ecofriendly extruded HVDC cables.
