Characteristics of Thermally Stimulated Measurement in Dipolar Depolarization |
Abstract |
A thermally stimulated current measurement using a temperature gradient (TG-TSC) has been applied to the study of dipolar depolarization in polymers. It has been clarified that theoretical analysis of TG-TSC in the initial rise region corresponds with the experimental results. We conclude that the experimental results on a cross-linked polyethy-lene (XLPE) film can be explained using the above relation and that the charasteristics obtained from the above theoretical analysis can be used for ascertaining the presence of a constant temperature gradient in a film. |
