In this paper, we investigated impurity content of carbon nanotube reinforced semiconductive shield materials and conventional semiconductive shield materials in power cables. To reduce impurity content, we used solution compounding method that an adding process of extra additives neglected. Impurity content measured through ICP-AES(Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy). Also, impurity measured Ca, Cu, Fe, Al, Mg, Na, K, Si in eight. As a result, carbon nanotube reinforced semiconductive shield materials is lower than conventional semiconductive shield materials in impurity content by ICP-AES.

In this paper, we Investigated effects on impurities and water of semiconductive shield through a thermal, mechanical, and absorption experiment to estimate performance of insulating materials in power cable. Specimens had been prepared 22[kV], 154[kV] XLPE power cables and then were made of sheet form with XLPE and semiconductive shield with dimension of 0.4[mm] ~1.2[mm] of thickness from power cable. Heat capacity $({\Delta}H)$ and glass trasition temperature (Tg) of XLPE sheet were measured by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry). We could know that thermal stabilities of 154[kV] are more excellent than 22[kV] from this experimental result. The strain of mechanical properties in 22[kV] and 154[kV] XLPE was 486[%], 507[%] and stress was 1.74$[kgf/mm^2]$, 1.80$[kgf/mm^2]$. The absorption contents of existing semiconductive shield were measured 710[ppm] to 1,090[ppm], and semiconductive shield of 22[kV] cable was measured 14,750[ppm] to 24,780[ppm]. We thermal and mechanical properties of 154[kV] could know more excellent than 22[kV] from this experimental result.

In this study, we have investigated electrical properties of semiconductive materials for power cable caused by copper tape shield structure. Volume resistivity of specimens was measured by volume resistivity meter after 10 minutes in the pre-heated oven of both 23 [$^{\circ}C$] and 90 [$^{\circ}C$]. From this experimental results, the volume resistivity had different properties because of PTC/NTC tendency at between 23 [$^{\circ}C$] and 90 [$^{\circ}C$].

In order to evaluate the soundness of 10 year service-aged XLPE-insulated 22.9 kV underground distribution cables, semiconductive shields have been characterized. The edge of insulation near the insulation shield shows a drastic decrease of OIT. Impurities such as Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu were detected in both conductor and insulation shields. Their concentrations at the insulation shield are much higher than those at the strand shield. All these facts suggest that the edge of insulation near the insulation shield is degraded considerably, which might be attributed to the oxidation reaction of insulation by a large amount of impurities in the insulation shield.

In this paper, we have investigated chemical, mechanical and structural properties by changing the content of carbon nanotube, Which is a component part of semiconductive shield in underground power transmission cable. The multi luminescence spectrometer MLA-GOLDS was used to investigate chemical properties of specimens. Also, the density meter EW-200SG was used to investigate the mechanical properties of specimens, and the FE-SEM S-4300 in Hitachi was used for dispersion of CNT(Carbon nanotube). As a result, the cl intensity, which show the effect of oxidation, was decreased by CNT of 1 [wt%], and the density of semiconductive shield materials with CNT and EEA(Ethylene Ethyl Acrylate) is lower than that for commercial semiconductive shield materials. Also, the properties of dispersion showed an increase according to an increase in the ratio of CNT, and the properties were the best at 5 wt%. Therefore, excellent chemical, mechanical and structural properties can be improved with the small amount of CNT.

To improve the mean-life and reliability of power cables, we have investigated the volume resistivity and thermal properties demonstrated by changing the content of carbon black, an additive of the semiconductive shield for underground power transmission. Nine specimens were made of sheet form for measurement. Volume resistivity of the specimens was measured by a volume resistivity meter after 10 minutes in a preheated oven at temperatures of both 25$\pm$1[$^{\circ}C$] and 90$\pm$ 1[$^{\circ}C$]. As well, specific heat (Cp) and thermal conductivity were measured by Nano Flash Diffusivity and DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry). The ranges of measurement temperature were from 0[$^{\circ}C$] to 200[$^{\circ}C$], and heating temperature was 4[$^{\circ}C$/min]. From these experimental results, volume resistivity was high according to an increase of the content of carbon black. Specific heat was decreased, while thermal conductivity was increased according to a rise in the content of carbon black. Furthermore, both specific heat and thermal conductivity were increased by heating temperature because the volume of materials was expanded according to a rise in temperature.

In this paper, we investigated impurities content and physical properties showing by changing the content of carbon black that is semiconductive materials for underground power transmission. Specimens were made of sheet form with the three of existing resins and the nine of specimens for measurement. Impurities content of specimens was measured by ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometer), and density of specimens were measured by density meter And then specific heat (Cp) was measured by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry). A ranges of measurement temperature were from $0^{\circ}[C]$ to $200^{\circ}[C]$, and heating temperature was $4^{\circ}[C/min]$. Impurities content was highly measured according to increasing the content of carbon black from this experimental result, also density was increased according to these properties. Especially impurities content values of the Al and A2 of existing resins were measured more than 4000［ppm］. Specific heat from the DSC results was decreased according to increasing the content of carbon black. Because ionic impurities of carbon black having Fe, Co, Mn, Al and Zn are rapidly passed kinetic energy increasing the number of times breaking during the unit time with the near particles according to increasing vibration of particles by the applied heat energy.

In this paper, we have investigated water content of semiconductive shield materials for power cables, EEA(Ethylene Ethyl Acrylate) is used polymer matrix. And filler is used CNT(Carbon Nanotube) and CB(Carbon Black). EEA, CNT and CB is favor moisture. In case of EEA, it has polyolefin resin that strong polarity combination. To research water content, experimental method used KF(Karl Fischer). KF method is Electrochemical titration based on chemical reaction. As a result, specification by KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Corporation) is lower than 800ppm. CNT and CB ratio of 80 versus 20 is best specimen that had lowest moisture content. It seem likely to increase crosslinking rate, CNT between CB.
