Abstract
For use as recyclable power cable insulations without dielectric oil, technology trends of IPP based thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer(TPO) nanocomposites were reviewed. In 2010 research results of IPP nanocomposite dielectrics for power capacitors showed promising high voltage properties except dielectric loss. Research of IPP based TPO nanocomposites for automotive exterior parts revealed considerable improvements of mechanical properties including impact strength, especially minimization of compatibilizer content, the origin of dielectric loss. A study on electrical properties of IPP based TPO nanocomposites containing a few weight percent of nanofillers for power cable insulations is suggested.
