Abstract:Due to the increased voltage in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cables, the insulation layer thickens, posing challenges in removing cross-linking byproducts, which influences the electrical properties of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). This research aimed to enhance DC breakdown properties while reducing the cross-linker dosage and maintaining the cross-linking degree. Liquid polybutadiene (LPB) is incorporated into the base resin, namely, low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and cross-linked at lower cross-… Show more
