摘要

NaY zeolite nanoparticles doped in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is investigated. The zeolite nanoparticles are uniformly distributed in LDPE. Space charge distribution from pulsed electro-acoustic method and trap level from thermally stimulated current test are obtained. The results indicate that zeolite doping enormously suppresses space charge accumulation and reduces the conduction current by importing abundant deep traps. It can be explained that the zeolite nanoparticles increase the interface regions and introduce small size cavity traps from the porous surface of zeolite. The deep traps greatly weaken impurity ionization and carrier mobility, and raise potential barrier for charge injection.
