Abstract:This study aims to develop large-scale commercial Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) nanocomposites used for industrial applications with power cables insulations. To achieve this goal, XLPE/zinc oxide nanocomposites were prepared with four unique loadings of Zinc Oxid (ZnO) nanoparticles: 0.5, 2, 3.5 and 5 wt.%, in the presence of appropriate coupling agent which used to reduce the agglomeration of nanoparticles and to improve the compatibility inside the polymer matrix. Amino silane was the coupling agent used… Show more
