Elecrical treeing performance of plasma-treated silicone rubber based nanocomposites

Nanocomposites have gained interest as insulating materials due to their excellent ability to resist electrical discharges. However, the poor adhesion of nanoparticles with polymer may reduce their capability towards discharge resistances. In the present study, atmospheric pressure plasma treatment...
