The electrical properties of polyethylene are changed by the superstructure. Such crystalline polymer as polyethylene or polypropylene changes crystallinity and products spherulite or trans-crystal when it is cooled slowly. In this study, after thermal treatment of LDPE at 100[${circ}C$], in silicone oil for an hour, we made specimens in order of slow cooling, water cooling, quenching according to cooling speed. Also, to study the influence of electrical properties due to the superstructure change, we analyzed physical properties and performed dielectric breakdown experiments using DC and impulse voltage Moreover we measured space charges in bulk using Laser Induced Pressure Pulse(LIPP) method. Trap level of specimen is 0.064[eV] at the low temperature region 0.31[eV] at the high temperature region in DC dielectric strength, 0.03[eV] at the low temperature region 0.0925[eV] at the high temperature region in impulse dielectric strength. As its result shows that the quantity of charges induced from the electrode surface increases with applied voltage time, and the distribution of space charges in samples increases the quantity of charges in proportion to applied voltage.

The relation between crystallinity and thermal history in low density polyethylene thin films and their effect on electric conduction phenomena and dielectric breakdown was studied. The low density polythylene thin films obtained by the solution growth method heat-treated at 140[$^{\circ}C$] for 2 h and subsequently cooling to various ways. The degree of crystallinity was estimated by the X-ray diffraction measurement for the specimen of slowly cooling, ICE quenching and liquid nitrogen quenching. The result shows that the crystallinity decreases become faster as the cooling speed increased, and that conduction phenomenon is governed by the space charge limited current in high field. It was found that the dielectric breakdown field increases with an increase in cooling speed and test number in self-healing breakdown method.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the surface modification of LDPE film via corona discharge treatment and subsequent graft polymerization, and their effect on the resulting dyeability is studied in terms of the surface functional groups, surface energetics, and acid-base interaction between the modified LDPE and the dyes used.

Electrospinning has gained interests as a polymer processing technique for nanofiber fabrications. It is well known that both polymer solutions and polymer melts can be electrospun. Among them, melt electrospinning is environmentally friendly technique due to the absence of solvent. However, the diameter of melt-electrospun fibers is typically thicker than solution-electrospun fibers. By using a home-made melt-electrospinning device, micron-sized fibers with smooth and even surfaces were electrospun successfully. We demonstrate that low-density polyethylene fibers can be reduced in diameter with a viscosity-reducing additive such as low molecular weight polyethylene monoalcohol and polyethylene wax. The diameter was further reduced by blending it with oxidized polyethylene wax due to polarity increment. Additionally, parameters affecting the diameter were analyzed such as an applied voltage and a spinning distance.

High tenacity polyethylene(HTPE) fiber is one of the most important synthetic fibers which possesses outstanding properties such as low density, excellent surface hardness and scratch resistance, superior electrical insulation and low cost. In this study, we dyed high tenacity polyethylene filaments using three different solvent dyes based on log P calculations. We evaluated the dyeing characteristics of dyed high tenacity polyethylene filaments based on dyeing temperature, dyeing time and concentration of solvent dyes. We also analyzed the tensile strength and elongation properties of dyed high tenacity polyethylene filaments with various dyeing temperature and dyeing times. The optimized dyeing condition can be found at $120^{\circ}C$ for dyeing time of 1 hour with 4%(o.w.f.) of solvent dyes.
