“…Increasing OMMT loading to 5 phr was shown to improve electrical and mechanical properties, and a further increase in the filler content led to the reduced properties, which could be related to a low particle dispersion at high clay loadings. Although there are some studies on mechanical and electrical properties of EPDM/SR/clay nanocomposites, to the best of our knowledge, limited researches were made to characterize the electrical and dielectric properties of nanocomposites based on EPDM, SR, and hybrid SR/EPDM matrices [17,18]. Therefore, the main purpose of the present study is to compare the electrical and dielectric characteristics of these blend composites for high-voltage insulators.…”

Silicone rubber (SR) and ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) are widely-used polymers as housing for high voltage insulators. In this work, SR/EPDM/clay nanocomposites were obtained by two-roll mill mixing for outdoor polymeric insulators. Morphology, dielectric properties, dielectric breakdown strength (DBS), and surface and volume resistivity of different weight contents of nanoclay (Cloisite 15A) incorporated in SR, EPDM, and SR/EPDM hybrid nanocomposites were characterized. In addition, the distribution of breakdown voltages was fit to the distribution of Weibull and estimated the scale and shape parameters. The polar groups of the clay particles enhanced the polarization capability of the nanocomposites. Moreover, DBS results showed an enhancement of the dielectric strength proportional to clay content. Finally, the surface and volume resistance of all nanocomposites decreases but maintains very high electrical resistance. The experimental data presented in this study will be useful for designing and manufacturing the outdoor insulators.

“…Elastomers more frequently studied for DEA applications include silicone, polyacrylic rubber (ACM) and polyurethane . Moreover, some research has been conducted on DEAs utilizing acrylonitrile‐butadiene rubber (NBR), natural rubber (NR), chloroprene, ethylene propylene diene and fluorinated rubbers. However, different testing approaches, equipment setups, sample dimensions and conditioning used in the previously mentioned studies make it rather difficult to compare those versatile rubber materials.…”

Dielectric elastomers are materials well known for their superior actuation behavior under applied electric field. The simplicity of material fabrication and clear working principle of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) can offer various applications of dielectric elastomers. In this work, we have compared a number of different types of commercially available elastomers in terms of actuation performance. It was found that well‐known commercial rubbers like acrylonitrile‐butadiene rubbers (NBR) can offer higher actuation performance in DEAs than the frequently used dielectric elastomers, such as acrylic rubber and silicone. The acrylonitrile content of the NBR was found to play an important role in the dielectric and consequently actuation properties. More interestingly, we observed that addition of organic oil, such as dioctyl adipate, can greatly enhance the actuation performance. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
