The experimental investigation on space charge distribution of cellulose insulation paper modified with alumina nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of nanoparticles on space charge distribution through using alumina nanoparticles to reinforce ordinary cellulose insulation paper was investigated, and the experimental results showed that adding nanoparticles can inhibit the injection, migration and accumulation of space charge in dielectric, making the space charges distribution more uniform in insulation paper.
