Abstract:

In this paper, we mainly analyzed the different influence of hydrophilic SiO2 particles and hydrophobic SiO2 particles on the properties of PI/Al2O3 films. PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophilic) films and PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophobic) films with 16 wt% content of Al2O3 and 3 wt‰, 5 wt‰, 7 wt‰ content of SiO2 respectively were prepared by in-situ polymerization method. Firstly, the hydrophilic SiO2 particles and hydrophobic SiO2 particles were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the average sizes and infrared characteristic peaks of two kinds of SiO2 particles were similar, and two kinds of SiO2 particles were amorphous inorganic particles. Then the morphology of the composite films was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the mechanical properties, the breakdown field strength and corona resistant time were tested and analyzed. Results indicated that inorganic particles added to PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophilic) films dispersed better than that of PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophobic) films. When the content of SiO2 particles was 5 wt‰, the mechanical properties and corona resistance of PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophilic) films were best, the tensile strength, elongation at break and corona resistance times of the films were: 132.44 MPa, 12.64%, 378 min, respectively. The breakdown field strength of PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophilic) films was only 211.15 kV/mm, and inferior to that of PI/Al2O3/SiO2(hydrophobic) films (232.08 kV/mm).
