In this paper, the volume resistivity properties due to mixture ration of linear low density polyethylene(LLDPE) and ethylene vinyl acetate(EVA) are studied. Electrodes is composed of upper electrode 37(mm $\Phi$), guardring electrode(inner 55(mm $\Phi$ ), and lower electrode 87(mm $\Phi$ In order to measure the leakage current, We used electrometer and stable oven with temperature controller. Measurement method is to measure the leakage current of next specimen after applying the voltage according to 'Step Apply Methods' for ten minutes. In order to measure the volume resistivity properties, the micro electrometer is used, the range of temperature and applying voltage are 25 to 100[$^{\circ}C$] to 100[V] respectively.

Radiation effects on dielectric properties of low density polyethylene(LDPE) were investigated using the various measurements of FT-IR, gel content and elongation at break. FT-IR spectra showed that polar groups were comprised in LDPE due to radiation treatment. It was also confirmed that the formation of polar groups on LDPE caused the increased dielectric properties such as permittivity and tan $\delta$. However, in this study, any evidence of decreasing permittivity was not found although the morphological change of LDPE could be identified from the increasing gel content and the decreasing elongation.

The treeing inhibitors of barbituric acid derivatives and azocompounds effects on the electrical properties of crosslinked low density polyethylene were investigated. The electrical treeing parameters for tree inception voltage, AC breakdown strength. volume resistivity, capacitance and dissipation factor at 1Mz and thermoluminescence measurements were discussed. From the results, 4- (4-nitrophenylazo) resorcinol among the treeing inhibitors was shown good insulation characteristics.

Rice starch was incorporated into linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) using a Brabender Plastic-Corder internal mixer at a temperature of 140$\^{C}$ and 40 rpm. The starch loading was varied from 0 to 30% with 5 intervals. Studies on brabender torque development, mechanical properties and water absorption were investigated. The starch loading did not influence the brabender torque significantly. With respect to mechanical properties; the tensile strength and elongation at break decrease with increasing starch loading. The Young's modulus also increases with the starch filling. Mechanical properties were deteriorated as the starch absorbed moisture. The rate of water absorption was dependent on the starch filling in the composites. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis was performed for the tensile fracture surfaces and it revealed the starch agglomeration and a poor dispersion of starch in the LLDPE matrix.

In order to investigate the effects of crystal structure in electrical breakdown of polyethylene film. Low molecular materials in polyethylene are removed by the method as follow. Polyethylene was dissolved in xylene and filtered through a glass fiber filter. And then, a polyethylene thin films of thickness $0.5 - 0.9{\mu}m$ are prepared with heat treatment from solution casting. To evaluate the performance of PE film, Electrical breakdown of PE film are measured on M( Al) - I (PE)-M(Al) system.

Aging characteristics of the crosslinked polyethylene have been measured after applying electrical, thermal and combined stresses. ICP and FT-IR measurements confirmed diffusion of low molecular weight components such as antioxidant and presence of carbonyl group. Carbonyl group of aged crosslinked polyethylene under combined stress was detected by FT-IR. As deterioration of the crosslinked polyethylene progresses, crystallinity degree and density decrease. Also, dielectric properties have been measured by tan $\delta$ and $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ measurements. The three-parameter Weibull distribution was found to be the best suited among other probabilistic distribution representing the dielectric breakdown strength of aged crosslinked polyethylene. The scale parameter and location parameter decreases as the applied stress increases. The shape parameter increases as the stress increases.s.

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) powder was investigated as a hydrophobic additive component in particleboard (PB). PBs were manufactured using southern pine particles with a liquid phenolic resin binder at two press temperatures. LDPE at three application rates was used. PBs were tested for physical properties and water soak dimensional stability per the procedure ASTM D 1037. The results indicated that as the LDPE addition level and hot-press temperature were increased, the panel water absorption and thickness swell values decreased. However, the panel's physical properties were affected negatively by increased LDPE application rates. These results indicated that LDPE could be used only in limited amounts to improve the panel's water soak dimensional properties.

The compounds of recycled polyethylene(PE) and fly-ashes were prepared. Polymers used were sorted PE from mixed plastics of household waste and Low Density Polyethylene(LDPE) and Linear Low Density Polyethylene(LLDPE) recycled from the scrap of packaging film plants. Fly-ashes were from the power plant and from the household waste incinerator. The tensile strength of recycled LDPE and LLDPE compounds decreased and the flexural modulus increased with greater amount of the power plant fly-ash. Anthracite fly-ash gave rise to slightly higher tensile and flexural strength of the LLDPE mixtures than bituminous coal fly-ash presumably due to higher content of unburned carbon. The incinerator fly-ash introduced to household waste PE enhanced both tensile strength and flexural modulus of the compounds. When LDPE and household waste PE were used together, the synergistic effect of incinerator fly-ash to household waste PE was offset by reduced crystallization of LDPE due to the filler particle. The compounds of household waste PE and incinerator fly-ash might be applied to structural materials for such as sewage pipe, which reduces the waste treatment cost and conserve the environment and resources.
