Abstract

The photo-stimulated discharge (PSD) technology was used to characterize the trap distribution of polyethylene (PE) and the PE that doped with 5% MgO before and after electrical aging. For the PE with the aging time increasing, the internal shallow trap of the material gradually reduced and deep trap gradually increased. But for the PE that doped with 5% MgO with the aging time increasing, shallow trap gradually increased and the deep trap gradually reduced. Results show that: during the electrical aging process the PE produces a large amount of free radicals which can introduce deep traps. Adding impurity of MgO can effectively restrain charge moving that injected from electrode, thus to improve the internal electric field distortion of PE.
