Thermoplastic blend balanced property developments for sustainable high performance power cables

Thermoplastic blend balanced property developments for sustainable high performance power cables

The improvement of electrical and thermal ratings of polypropylene based thermoplastic electrical insulation materials for continuous cable operation at 120 °C with peak operation up to 150 °C using tailored blends requires an intimate knowledge of the property balance and trade-offs required to achieve workable insulation systems for MVAC and HVAC applications. This paper discusses recent extensive development work to achieve this and also meet the processability challenges to necessary for volume cable production. We also show the power of this approach in providing potential HVDC solutions for a class of materials with very wide application potential.

Abstract

The improvement of electrical and thermal ratings of polypropylene based thermoplastic electrical insulation materials for continuous cable operation at 120 °C with peak operation up to 150 °C using tailored blends requires an intimate knowledge of the property balance and trade-offs required to achieve workable insulation systems for MVAC and HVAC applications. This paper discusses recent extensive development work to achieve this and also meet the processability challenges to necessary for volume cable production. We also show the power of this approach in providing potential HVDC solutions for a class of materials with very wide application potential.
