Results indicate that surface potential and its decay time constant reduces drastically after the corona ageing, as compared to the virgin specimen, however, the test specimens regain their hydrophobicity, though at a different rate, with time.Abstract:
Surface hydrophobicity recovery of silicone rubber insulating material post corona ageing is reported in the present work. Recovery rate of hydrophobicity of uncleaned (S1) and cleaned sample (S2) after the corona ageing are compared. Results indicate that surface potential and its decay time constant reduces drastically after the corona ageing, as compared to the virgin specimen. However, the test specimens regain their hydrophobicity, though at a different rate, with time. Trap distribution characteristic shows that the characteristic time and charge trap depth reduces with the corona aged specimens and regain with rest period. A similar trend is observed with contact angle and corona inception voltage (CIV) of the test specimens. Pattern classification of Ultra High Frequency (UHF) discharge signal is done using modified Chaotic Analysis (CA).read more

TL;DR: In comparison to neat silicone rubber, the stability of the structure and hydrophobic behavior was better for micro-silica, which was further enhanced in the case of nanocomposites, which showed the best resistance against the applied stresses.

Understanding the influence of water droplet initiated discharges on damage caused to corona-aged silicone rubber
TL;DR: In this paper, surface charge accumulation studies indicate that the charge retention capability of the insulating material gets reduced drastically with silicone rubber damaged due to corona, causing degradation of surface.

Potential decay on silicone rubber surfaces affected by bulk and surface conductivities
TL;DR: In this paper, surface potential decay on flat samples of different kinds of silicone rubber used in HVDC applications is analyzed at reduced pressures of ambient air that allows for minimizing the involvement of the gas phase, i.e., surface charge neutralization by gas ions.
