SZShiyin ZengWLWendong LiWHWeiwei He

Key Points

  • Combined UV and tensile stress significantly degrades silicone rubber properties.
  • The aging process shows interactions like molecular scission and oxidative crosslinking.
  • Silicone rubber degradation affects the performance of composite insulators over time.
  • Understanding these effects can lead to better material design in high-temperature applications.

Abstract

Under UV and tensile stress, molecular scission, oxidative crosslinking and filler precipitation jointly contribute to the degradation of HTV silicone rubber, exhibiting synergistic and competing effects throughout the aging process.
