Abstract

The growth of water trees was measured using CNRS Laboratory Models in laboratory polyethylene specimens. The effect of deaerating the specimens, and annealing them under different gaseous atmospheres was investigated. These factors were found to be secondary in the growth of water trees. The gas in contact with the material during the growth of water trees is considered not to influence the intiation stage but the propagation stage.
