Polyethylene insulating materials for nuclear power generating stations: pt. 1

Description

The crosslinking of low density polyethylene is investigated in the presence of trifunctional monomers and commercial antioxidants which are Irganox 1010, Snatonox R, Nocreac D and Bisphenol A, using electron accelerator. The trifunctional monomers are Trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), Trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTM), and Triallyl cyanurate (TAC). Among trifunctional monomers, TMPTA is the best in gel fraction enhancement and oxidation resistance. Among those antioxidants, Nocrac D is the best in oxidation resistance
