Pollution flashover of outdoor insulators is a common risk, which affects the safe operation of overhead transmission networks. Early electrical power systems, which feature insulators made from ceramic materials have been used all over the world with good performance. At present, non-ceramic insulators are in common use, as a result of their good electrical as well as mechanical properties. The aim of this paper is to discuss and compare the flashover performance of insulators typically used in power lines, such as, porcelain, ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer (EPDM) rubber, room temperature vulcanized (RTV) and high temperature vulcanized (HTV) coated silicone rubber. The effect of various parameters, including the severity of pollution, ice accumulation, and shade profile, are considered.. From the studies reviewed it was concluded that there is a distinct difference in the flashover voltages of different types of insulators, and the silicone provides the best flashover performance of all insulating materials.

This paper considers accelerated thermal degradation tests which are performed for rubber seal materials used for undersea tunnels constructed by immersion method. Three types of rubber seals are tested; rubber expansion seal, omega seal, and shock absorber hose. Main ingredient of rubber expansion seal is EPDM(Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) and that of both omega seal and shock absorber hose is SBR(Styrene Butadiene Rubber). The accelerated stress is temperature and an Arrhenius model is introduced to describe the relationship between the lifetime and the stress. From the accelerated degradation tests, dominant failure mode of the rubber seals is found to be the loss of elongation. The lifetime distribution and the service life of the rubber seals at use condition are estimated from the test results. The acceleration factor for three types of rubber seals are also investigated.

The teat cup liner compounds with improved physical property were developed using tri-polymer blend of natural rubber(NR), ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber(EPDM) and butyl rubber, and the changes of the physical properties of compounds were measured under various conditions such as standard, thermal, alkaline detergent and acid solutions aging conditions. The hardness of the new teat cup liner compound 1 was 50 and that of the compound 2 was 51 under standard condition. The tensile strength and elongation of the new compound 1 were $154kgf/cm^2$ and 675% under the standard condition, respectively. Also, those of the new compound 2 were 180 kgf/cm and 634% under the same condition. Their hardness were increased about $2{\sim}6%$ and the tensile strength and elongation were decreased about 10% under the $25^{\circ}C$ water and detergent solutions. Even though the new teat cup liner compounds exhibited so much decreased tensile properties under the $105^{\circ}C$ thermal aged condition, they sustained more stable aged physical properties including tensile strength and elongation than those of imported teat cup liner materials. Consequently, the new teat cup liner compounds would give prolonged lift cycle if they are used as a teat cup liner product.

난연제 triphenyl phosphate는 HDPE(high-density polyethylene)/EPDM(ethylene-propylene diene monomer)/boron carbide 내에서 miscibility가 좋지 못하여 고분자의 기계적 물성을 크게 저하시킨다. HDPE/EPDM/boron carbide/triphenyl phosphate 블렌드의 분산성을 향상시키기 위해서 상용화제로 PE-g-MAH(polyethylene-graft-maleic anhydride)를 사용하여 블렌딩하였다. Triphenyl phosphate 함량이 증가할수록 인장강도를 크게 저하시킴을 확인하였다. 하지만 상용화제 첨가로 인하여 기계적 물성이 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. Triphenyl phosphate의 분산성의 향상은 SEM 분석을 통해서 확인하였다. HDPE/EPDM/boron carbide/triphenyl phosphate의 내열성과 난연성을 측정하기 위해서 TGA 분석과 LOI 분석을 진행하였다. 분산성이 향상됨에 따라서 triphenyl phosphate 첨가제의 기본적인 특성인 내열성과 난연성이 향상되었으며, 그 결과로 자기 소화성인 21% 이상의 한계산소지수(LOI)를 가지는 HDPE/EPDM/boron carbide/triphenyl phosphate 블렌드를 얻을 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 EPDM 고무를 기지재로 사용하여 유기 난연제에 따른 난연 특성을 살펴보았다. EPDM 원료 고무에 카아본블랙, 스테아르산, 산화아연 가교제 등을 배합하여, 난연제가 첨가되지 않은 EPDM 고무 혼합물인 E0를 제조하였다. E0에 인계 난연제인 Tricresyl phosphate(TCP)를 인 함량이 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 phr로 변량 첨가하여 E1~E4를 제조하였고, 적인을 인 함량이 3, 6, 9, 15 phr로 변량 첨가하여 E5~E8를 제조하였다. 또한 브롬계 난연제인 데카브로모디페닐옥사이드(DBDPO)와 염소계 난연제인 염화파라핀은 각각 브롬과 염소 함량을 3, 6, 9, 15 phr로 변량 첨가하여 E9~E12와 E13~E16을 각각 제조하였다. 난연제의 종류에 따라 제조된 고무시료의 인장 및 인열, 경도 등의 기본 물성을 시험하였으나, 난연제 함량에 의한 이들 변화는 커다란 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한 난연 특성을 알아보기 위한 산소지수 시험에서는 E0의 산소지수가 23.5%를 나타내었으며, 난연제를 첨가한 고무의 산소지수는 23.7~28.5%를 나타내어서 난연 특성이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 UL94의 수평법에 의한 시험에서 난연제로 적인을 사용한 EPDM 고무 혼합물의 난연 효과가 가장 우수함을 확인 할 수 있었고 반면 TCP를 첨가한 고무 혼합물의 경우, 블리딩(Bleeding)현상이 심하여 시험 결과의 재현성을 얻지 못하였다. 전반적으로 난연제의 종류에 관계없이 함량 증가에 따라 연소율이 감소하였고 난연 효과가 향상됨을 확인하였다.

An experimental study was conducted using the tracking wheel test (IEC 62217) method for evaluating the performance of insulator materials, in particular ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) and silicone rubber. In addition, we studied the tracking characteristics resulting from applying the same method for the shape of the insulator housing, that is, the performance of regular and alternating sheds. The evaluation parameters were leakage current, surface characteristics, SEM, EDX, hydrophobicity, and temperature distribution; likewise, we applied the commercial frequency dry (and wet) flashover voltage test. We found that the regular shed had a greater leakage current than the alternating shed and that the recovery of the hydrophobicity in terms of rest time was greater than that of the EPDM in terms of leakage current. All of the regular-shed insulators of silicone rubber had tracking traces and choking on the sheath parting line, while the alternating shed showed only choking at the interface but no tracking traces. Therefore, it can be concluded that the commercial frequency wet flashover voltage of the silicone rubber with regular shed before and after the tracking wheel test is higher than that of the alternating shed.

높은 강도, 경도, 신율, 비중 및 내마모성 등을 가진 채 폐기되는 열가소성 폴리우레탄 스크랩(TPU-S)과 습윤 상태의 내슬립성은 높으나 기계적 물성이 떨어지는 EPDM 고무의 용융 블렌드를 통해 신발 소재용 필름을 제조하고 조성과 특성과의 관계를 연구하였다. 블렌드 중의 TPU-S의 함량이 증가함에 따라 강도, 신도, 내마모성, 비중 및 경도 등 모든 물성이 증가하였으나, 습윤 상태의 내슬립성(동적마찰계수)은 크게 감소하였다. TPU-S 함량의 증가에 따라 블렌드의 파단신율은 단순혼합법칙 이상으로 증가하였으며, 습윤 상태의 내슬립성은 TPU-S가 $0{\sim}65%$ 범위에서 단순혼합법칙 이상이었다. 그러나 인장강도, 비중 및 내마모성은 모두 단순혼합법칙보다 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 이들 블렌드의 조성-특성 관계의 결과로부터 일반적으로 요구되는 신발 겉창용 소재의 물성에 충족되는 EPDM/TPU-S 블렌드의 조성은 무게비가 30/70인 것을 알 수 있었다.

무전해 도금을 통해 제조한 FeCo 자성 금속 중공형 섬유와 EPDM 고분자를 이용하여 전자파 차폐 복합재를 제작하였다. 열처리 공정을 통하여 섬유의 종횡비를 제어하였으며 중공형 구조로 섬유를 제조한 후, 이를 EPDM 수지에 첨가하여 복합재를 제조하였다. 자성 금속 중공형 섬유의 종횡비가 클수록 낮은 표면 저항 특성과 우수한 전자파 차폐 성능을 나타내었다. 약 $100{\mu}m$ 길이의 자성 금속 중공형 섬유를 이용한 두께 $150{\mu}m$ 전자파 차폐 복합재의 경우 밀도 $1.18g/cm^3$, 약 30 ohm/sq의 표면 저항, 그리고 30 dB의 전자파 차폐 성능을 나타내었다. 이는 종횡비가 큰 섬유에 의한 퍼콜레이션 임계치 이상의 전도성 네트워크 형성과 더불어, 낮은 표면 저항에 기인한 임피던스 차이에 의한 반사 손실 증가, 흡수 손실, 그리고 다중 내부 반사 손실에 의하여 우수한 전자파 차폐 성능을 나타내는 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, a numerical model of a shield tunnel with an assembled segmental lining was built. The seismic response of the segmental lining of the section of the shield tunnel in Line 1 of the Chengdu Metro is analyzed as it passes through the interface of sand-cobble and mudstone layers. To do so, the node-stress seismic-motion input method was used to input the seismic motion measured during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, and the joint openings and dislocations associated with the earthquake action were obtained. With reference to the Ethylene-Propylene-Diene Monomer (EPDM) sealing gaskets used in the shield tunnels in the Chengdu Metro, numerical simulation was applied to analyze the contact pressure along the seepage paths and the waterproof property under different joint openings and dislocations. A laboratory test on the elastic sealing gasket was also conducted to study its waterproof property. The test results accord well with the numerical results and the occurrence of water seepage in the section of the shield tunnel in Line 1 of the Chengdu Metro during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake was verified. These research results demonstrate the deformation of segmental joint under earthquake, also demonstrate the relationship between segmental joint deformation and waterproof property.
