ABSTRACT

With the growing incidence of extreme climate and serious pollution, the capability to resist high-voltage arc discharge has been considered as one of crucial performances for silicone rubber in the field of electrical power. Herein, to enhance the tracking and erosion resistance of addition-cure liquid silicone rubber (ALSR), a kind of ureido-attached vinyl MQ silicone resin [hydrolytic condensation products of monofunctional silane (M) and tetrafunctional silane (Q)] (U-VMQ) was synthesized. The chemical structure of U-VMQ was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and proton nuclear magnetic resonance, and the effects of U-VMQ on the mechanical properties, thermal stability, and tracking and erosion resistance of ALSR were investigated. The results showed that U-VMQ was beneficial for the improvement of mechanical properties and thermal stability of ALSR. With 2 phr of U-VMQ containing 2.5 wt % of vinyl content, the ALSR successfully passed the inclined plane tracking at 4.5 kV, and the electrical erosion rate was only 0.13%. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
