چکیده

در این تحقیق، آزمون جذب آب بر روی کامپوزیت پلیمری تقویت‌شده با الیاف شیشه تک جهتِ (GFRP) به‌منظور به‌کارگیری در عایق‌های کامپوزیتی ولتاژ بالا انجام شد. نمونه‌های کامپوزیتی در دمای اتاق در آب مقطر، به‌صورت غوطه‌وری قرار گرفتند و مقاومت شان به جذب رطوبت برحسب نرخ جذب رطوبت، میزان جذب رطوبت و ضریب نفوذ ظاهری تعیین شد. همچنین اثر هندسه نمونه (اثر لبه) بر روی جذب رطوبت کامپوزیت موردبررسی قرار گرفت. بر طبق نتایج می‌توان پی برد که تغییرات در میزان رطوبت اثر ویژه‌ای بر روی خواص مکانیکی و الکتریکی مواد کامپوزیتی خواهد داشت. آزمون کشش به‌منظور تعیین خواص مکانیکی، اندازه‌گیری ولتاژ شکست و جریان نشتی به‌منظور بررسی خواص الکتریکی و تصویربرداری به کمک میکروسکوپ الکترونی عبوری برای مشاهده مورفولوژی نمونه‌های GFRP صورت گرفت. با افزایش زمان غوطه‌وری استحکام کششی و مدول یانگ نمونه‌ها کاهش یافت. بعلاوه، آب جذب‌شده به‌وسیله نمونه‌های کامپوزیتی منجر به افت ولتاژ شکست و افزایش جریان نشتی کامپوزیت شد که می‌تواند نشان‌دهنده‌ی تخریب آن‌ها باشد.

چکیده [English]

Water absorption tests were performed on unidirectional glass/polymer composite materials used in high voltage composite (nonceramic) insulators. The composites were based on E-glass fibers with polyester resin. The composites were exposed to distilled water at room temperature and their resistance to moisture absorption in terms of the rate of moisture absorption, maximum moisture content and apparent diffusivity was determined. In particular, the effects of specimen geometry (the edge effect) on moisture absorption by the composites were evaluated. It was found that changes in moisture content have a special effect on the mechanical and electrical properties of the composite material. The tensile test was conducted to determine the mechanical properties, breakdown voltage and the leakage current were measured to determine the electrical properties and scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the morphological property of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) samples. A reduction in both module and tensile strength was observed with water aging. Furthermore, Water absorbed by composite samples had a detrimental influence on the breakdown voltage and leakage current of composite specimens that could be an indicator of degradation.
