The effect of accelerated weathering(UV) on three type of ethylene propylene diene monomer(EPDM) composite used for higher voltage insulator were investigated by weather-emoter. For weatherability of EPDM composite, surface resistance, dielectric breakdown strength, change of contact angle, surface composition were measured according to UV accelerated weathering time. From the resort of the measurement of surface resistivity, contact angle of EPDM composite decreased and showed chalking and cracking phenomenon when UV weathweing time was for 1500 h and 2000 h. The analysis of surface atomic composition indicated that surface aluminiu(Al) content was detected due to chalking phenomenon after 1500 h of UV weathering, Oxygen content of all composite increased due to the oxidation.

This research is about the result of leakage current waveform about the situation of surface leakage current and environmental changes(Salt fog, clean fog and rain) by EPDM polymer insulators' amount of salt. The researcher presents the result of changing about fundamental harmonic, 3rd harmonic and 5th harmonic from starting point of supplying power to flashover. In this study, researched environmental affects (clean fog, salt fog and rain) about surface aging of polymer insulators and used frequency spectrum of leakage current waveform to develop the diagnostic technique of surface aging. When amount of salt contents changed, surface aging stage and the degree of aging (distortion factor) about 3rd and 5th harmonic waveform on low frequency harmonic wave. The distortion factor which is harmonic percentage about basic harmonic is important pointer to evaluate the surface condition of polymer insulators.

Recently, The diagnosis techniques of electric facilities are developed on live line. This paper describes the discharge characteristics of polymer insulator(EPDM A type). Keeping the facilities in good working order, the goal of this paper will provide the information to enable user to easily judge conditions of facilities on the spot. The performance of polymer insulator is assessed from the KS C IEC 60270 and CEA LWIWG-01(96)(Tracking Wheel Test). As the results, UV generation patterns of polymer insulator grow like a jellyfish shape follow the ramping voltage. Discharging UVs are detected at about 31.25% of breakdown voltage. Just then, dimension of UV image is about $0.84cm^{2}$. The dimension of max. UV image is about $297.4cm^{2}$ at $160kV(V_{bd})$. The position of UV generation due to surface discharge of polymer insulator is the center of insulator in the early, then moved the ground side and the last, UV image moved through the junction part of source side. Surface of aged polymer insulator is cracked and faded due to arc. UV absorption spectrum of polymer insulator are appeared the C-H bond of scissoring vib. at $1014cm^{-1}$ and C=O bond of recombination structure. Also, recombined UV absorption peak such as C-H, N-H, and O-H is detected at the $3321cm^{-1}$. Through the paper, there are inspection data which are the relations between surface discharge of polymer insulator and UV detecting image.

Fractal mathematics is being highlighted as a research method for classification of image. But the application of Fractal dimension(FD) has been required the complicated calculation method because of its complex repetition progressing. In this paper, it has been applied the new approach method to express FD for aging level calculation and investigated the relative degradation processing in outdoor EPDM insulator. As a result after testing, new proposed method has a capability to estimate in case of the field operated EPDM and accelerating test. Therefore, we find the differency of operated EPDM according to field condition.

This study performs a simulation for an accumulation mechanism of contaminants, which were produced in an industrial belt of inland, on the surface of insulators. From the simulation, silicon insulators presented higher accumulation than that of EPDM(Ethylene Propylene Diene Terpolymer : EPDM) insulators on the same distance in the case of the Virgin polymer insulator, and this result presented the same result in the insulator applied in actual fields. In the case of the accumulation test for the Virgin insulator and insulators used in actual fields, it is evident that the Virgin insulator presented more accumulation than that of the insulator used in actual fields. The results can be caused by the generation of LMW (Low Molecular Weight) on the external material of polymer insulators, and the level of the accumulation can be changed according to the degree of the continuous generation of LMW. In order to simulate a certain pollution of an industrial belt, which is located along the coastline, leakage currents were measured by applying the contaminant compulsively that was produced with salts and Kaolin according to the ratio of its weight on the surface of insulators. The more increase in the content of Kaolin pollution, the level of leakage currents on the surface of polymer insulator more increased. In addition, the approaching time to the maximum value of leakage currents presented a nearly constant level regardless of the content of Kaolin. The level of leakage currents significantly decreased according to the passage of time, and the level of leakage currents on the surface maintained a constant level at a specific time regardless of the content of Kaolin.

고분자 복합체 절연재료는 porcelain 이나 glass 같은 세라믹 소재의 재료와 비교하여 옥외사용 시간의 관점에서 더 뛰어난 특정을 발휘한다. 그러나 노화되었을 때, 이들 옥외용 절연재료의 성질은 발수성이나 흡수성등과 같은 절연재료의 표면특성에 의해 변화한다. 이러한 표면특성의 변화는 누설전류에 의한 트래킹 (tracking), 침식 (erosion) 및 섬락현상(flashover) 등의 유전체 파괴에 이르게 한다. 본 연구에서는 고분자 복합체 절연재료로 널리 이용되고 있는 EPDM의 발수특성을 향상시키기 위해 기존에 이용되던 무기물 첨가제인 alumina hydrate(ATH)이외에 발수성이 뛰어난 실리콘 고무를 상용화제를 이용하여 블렌드하고, 각종 유기 첨가제 및 무기물 보강제를 이용하여 EPDM/Silicone 복합체를 제조하였다. EPDM/Silicone 복합체의 인장강도 및 유전강도는 실리콘의 함량이 증가할수록 낮아졌으며, 촉진 노화시험을 실시한 결과 $120^{\circ}C$까지 인장강도 및 신율을 유지하였다. 유전강도의 측정결과 복합체의 접촉각과 표면에너지 측정결과 Silicone 고무의 함량이 증가할수록 접촉각은 증가하고, 표면에너지는 낮아졌다. 경사평판법에의한 내트래킹성 측정결과 실리콘 함량이 증가할수록 내트래킹성은 우수하였으며, 실리콘 함량이 30%인 복합체에서는 트래킹 및 침식이 진행되지 않았다.

In this paper, we have investigated the degradation of shed materials of outdoor insulators by UV-radiation by using corona-charging and XPS analysis. The accumulated charges on polymeric surface having intrinsic hydrophobic property have a negative impact on retaining its hydrophobicity. Therefore, shorter decay times of surface charges are preferred. The surface voltage decay on UV-treated silicone rubber and EPDM show a different decay trend with UV treated time. From the XPS analysis, the oxidized groups of silica-like structure in silicone rubber increase with UV treatment time. For EPDM, the oxidized carbon groups of C=O, O=C-O increase as elapse of UV radiation time. These oxidized surface for each material have different electrostatic characteristics, so deposited charges may be expected to have different impacts on their surface hydrophobicity. The degradation mechanism based on our results is discussed.
