Abstract
Incorporating two-dimensional (2-D) boron nitride (BN) into polyimide/aluminum nitride (PI/AlN) renders a simple strategy in producing new ternary composite films with longer corona aging life and higher breakdown strength compared with PI/AlN. During corona aging process, the effects of 2-D BN on adjusting the microstructure evolution of ternary composites were investigated using quasi-in-situ technology systematically as follow: (SEM), (AFM), (FTIR), (XRD) and (SAXS) at different corona time. Quasi-in-situ characterization results show that the corona aging modes of the two composite films are quite different, the introduction of BN nanosheets could protect the C–N–C and C–O–C bonds from breaking as well as accelerate the fillers expose via autoxidation reaction. In addition, BN nanosheets could induce the distance between PI molecular chains to shorten during the corona process, resulting in more dense structures coordinating with AlN and PI. Different corona aging mechanism compared with that of the PI/AlN composite films was proposed. This work demonstrated the effect of 2-D BN nanosheets in the PI/AlN+BN ternary composites, which can be used to expand their application in insulating polymer based composites.
