Abstract :
In order to improve the breakdown properties of low density polyethylene (LDPE), the electrical properties of blend polymers of LDPE and Polypropylene (random copolymer of propylene and ethylene: R-EP) have been investigated at 30°C, 60°C and 90°C. In the case of LDPE with 0.917 g/cm3 and R-EP with 0.897 g/cm3, the specimen with a higher R-EP content had a higher impulse breakdown strength at 90°C than the specimen with a lower R-EP content, but there was no clear difference at 30°C and 60°C. However, in the case of LDPE with 0.924 g/cm3 and the same R-EP, any improvement was not recognized for both impulse and dc breakdown strength of blend polymers throughout the temperature range from 30°C to 90°C. The increase in impulse breakdown strength may be related with the striated structure of specimen observed with the polarizing microscope
