Partial discharges may cause damage to electrical insulation of high voltage equipment. They initiate elastic waves in the insulating material, e.g. in the stress cone of an outdoor termination. Localisation of the origin of such elastic waves can help to predict serious damaging processes in the electrical insulation. In order to measure and evaluate the wave propagation effects in typical multilayered elastomeric structures, knowledge of the material properties is required. The propagating velocity and the attenuation of longitudinal waves are important parameters. Values for these quantities found in the literature were not appropriate. Therefore, for cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) and cured liquid silicone rubber (LSR), the longitudinal wave velocity and the attenuation were evaluated in the temperature interval from -20°C to 50°C and in the frequency range from 200 kHz to 600 kHz using a two-sample ultrasound technique. The loss factor was determined from these measured quantities. Additionally, low frequency Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA) was applied to investigate LSR and XLPE in a temperature interval between -100 and 50°C and to check qualitatively the ultrasound data.
In recent years eure monitoring with ultrasonic methods became more important. An on-line measurement System for industrial applications is presented in this paper. It operates in through-transmission and the measured parameters are the sound velocity and the attenuation of the sound wave. An objective of this paper is to establish the ränge of possible applications for an ultrasonic eure monitoring System.
The application of microwave measurements to the characterisation of rubber compounds vulcanisation is considered. The behaviour of mechanical and microwave (20 GHz) dielectric parameters during vulcanisation was investigated for rubber compounds with different concentrations of active and non-active carbon black. An increase of concentration or activity of carbon black results in the increase of both dielectric permittivity ε?(T) and loss ε?(T) and in the increase of torsion modulus as well. The start of the vulcanisation reaction is indicated by an increase of dielectric permittivity and torsion modulus in all investigated unvulcanised compounds with carbon black. While for compounds with non-active carbon black the vulcanisation can be better indicated by the ε?(T) anomaly, for compounds with active carbon black it is more clearly seen by the change of ε?(T) behaviour.
Angesichts der spezifischen Bedeutung der Aushärtung von Phenolharzen für ihre Eigenschaften als Ingenieurwerkstoffe besteht großes Interesse an deren quantitativer Charakterisierung. Mittels DSC-Messungen unter hohem Druck (HP-DSC) kann die Vernetzungsreaktion der Phenolharzformmassen durch die Unterdrückung der Verdampfung niedermolekularer Substanzen ohne störende Überlagerungen verfolgt werden. Mittels verschiedener Vernetzungsgrade können die Einflussparameter der Aufheizrate und der Nachtemperung optimiert werden. Die Messergebnisse ermöglichen eine Modellierung der Reaktionskinetik mit dem Ziel einer verbesserten Prozessführung und Qualitätskontrolle in der industriellen Praxis.
Adhesion of amorphous polymers as a function of temperature probed with AFM force-distance curves
(2005)
Forcedisplacement curves have been obtained with a commercial atomic force microscope at different temperatures and probe rates on a thick film of poly(n-butyl methacrylate) and on two films of polystyrene with different molecular weight. In a previous publication [B. Cappella, S.K. Kaliappan, H. Sturm, Macromolecules 38 (2005)1874] the analysis of forcedisplacement curves has been focused on the stiffness and on the Young's modulus of the samples. In the present publication we consider the temperature dependence of the work of adhesion. We have obtained master curves of the work of adhesion at fixed maximum loads and, by comparing the results of the two analysis, we show that the work of adhesion follows the WilliamsLandelFerry equation with the same coefficients previously found for the Young's modulus. Furthermore, we show that the temperature dependence of the work of adhesion of the polymers is a consequence of the temperature dependence of the tipsample contact area and in the end of the temperature dependence of the stiffness and of the elasticplastic properties of the samples.
