摘要
Polypropylene(PP)emerges as a promising power cable insulation material,with its electrothermal performance fundamentally determining application potential and operational durability.Meanwhile,antioxidants,renowned for their ability to enhancing thermal stability and insulating performance of polyolefins,offer a viable strategy for optimizing PP.Thus,this study establishes molecular dynamics models for PP/antioxidant systems with antioxidant type as a variable,to investigate the microstructural evolution and electrothermal properties of antioxidant-modified PP across different temperatures.The simulation results indicate that compared to PP neat system,PP/AO736 system shows a 26K increase in glass transition temperature,a 13.88%reduction in relative dielectric constant,and a 37.6%enhancement in breakdown strength at 400 K.Besides,PP/HP system demonstrates advantages in regulating heat transfer,with a 33.1%improvement in thermal conductivity at 300 K.These findings provide methodological guidance for improving the electrical and thermal properties of PP.
