This paper investigates the impact mechanism of nanosized hydrophilic and hydrophobic fumed titania on the electrical properties of polypropylene. The results show that hydrophilic TiO2 decreases the space charge suppression ability of the nanocomposite, while hydrophobic TiO2 improves the AC/DC breakdown strength.
Polypropylene (PP) has received more and more attention in the field of insulating materials as a recyclable thermoplastic. To further enhance the applicability of polypropylene in the field of insulation, it needs to be modified to improve its electrical properties. In this paper, the impact mechanism of AEROXIDE (R) TiO2 P 90 (P90) and AEROXIDE (R) TiO2 NKT 90 (NKT90) as nanosized hydrophilic and hydrophobic fumed titania from Evonik on the electrical properties of PP was studied mainly through the crystallization behavior and space charge distribution of PP nanocomposites. Two kinds of nanostructured TiO2 were melt-blended with PP according to four types of contents. The results of alternating current (AC)/direct current (DC) breakdown field strength of the two materials were explained by studying the microstructure and space charge characteristics of the nanocomposites. Among them, hydrophilic nanostructured TiO2 are agglomerated when the content is low. The spherulite size of the nanocomposite is large, the space charge suppression ability is poor, the charge is easy to penetrate into the pattern, and the AC/DC breakdown field strength is significantly reduced. However, hydrophobic nanostructured TiO2 has better dispersion in PP, smaller spherulites, more regular arrangement, and less space charge accumulation. The charge penetration occurs only when the nanostructured material content is 2 wt%, and the AC/DC breakdown strength increases by 20.8% at the highest when the nanostructured material content is 1 wt%. It provides the possibility to prepare recyclable high-performance DC PP composite insulating materials.
