BACKGROUND

[0002] In modern power transmission systems, high-voltage cables undertake the key task of efficiently and stably transmitting a large amount of electric energy. High-voltage transmission has been widely applied in the fields of long-distance and large-capacity power transmission, long-distance submarine cable or large-city underground cable power transmission, and power distribution networks, due to its advantages of small line loss, large transmission capacity, and high operating stability. As an indispensable part of a high-voltage cable transmission system, the performance of a high-voltage cable accessory directly relates to the safe and stable operation of the entire transmission system. The cable accessory not only needs to ensure normal transmission of electric energy, but also needs to effectively disperse the electric field concentration phenomenon at the cable terminal head, which requires it to have high insulation strength, good sealing performance, excellent mechanical strength, storage stability, and reliable conductor connection performance, and other excellent characteristics.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN 110845851 B, which is a prior application of the present applicant, discloses a liquid conductive adhesive for power cable accessories and a preparation method thereof.

[0038] The base rubber provided by this invention includes base rubber 1 and base rubber 2. The formulation of the base rubber contains two conductive fillers: carbon black and carbon nanotubes. By utilizing the synergistic effect of carbon black and carbon nanotubes, the problems of blackening and poor color fastness caused by excessive carbon black addition in a single carbon black formulation system are overcome. Furthermore, the defects of high viscosity and poor processability of pure carbon nanotube systems are avoided. The final conductive silicone rubber has the characteristics of excellent conductivity, low friction and no color fading, and good processing fluidity. In addition, a pH buffer solution is added to the base rubber, which can greatly increase the storage stability of the prepared A and B rubbers. This allows the hardness and vulcanization speed of the conductive silicone rubber obtained by mixing A and B rubbers after long-term storage to be almost the same as that of the fresh rubber.

[0166] Performance testing

[0167] Test using the following methods;

[0168] Appearance: Visual inspection;

[0169] Viscosity: DIN 53019-1;

[0170] Shore hardness: ISO 48-4;

[0171] AC volume resistivity: ISO 1853;

[0172] T90 vulcanization time: ISO 6502;

[0173] Colorfastness test: such as Figure 1 As shown, the Martindale abrasion tester was used for testing. The vulcanized test piece was subjected to a pressure of 12 kPa and rubbed repeatedly with wool cloth 200 times. The cloth was then removed and the color of the residual adhesive on the cloth was observed. The darker the color, the easier it was for the test piece to fade during the rubbing process.

[0174] The prepared conductive silicone rubber was tested immediately, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0175] Table 1 Test Data of Fresh Conductive Silicone Rubber

[0176]

[0177]

[0178] The prepared A and B rubbers were stored for one year before being mixed and vulcanized. The vulcanized conductive silicone rubber was then tested.

[0179] The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0180] Table 2 Test data of conductive silicone rubber after 1 year of storage

[0181]

[0182] The color fastness test results of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are as follows: Figures 2 to 7 As shown.

[0183] Data Analysis

[0184] from Figures 1 to 6 As can be seen from Table 1, the conductive silicone rubbers of Examples 1 to 3 contain both carbon black and carbon nanotubes as conductive fillers, and have a low AC volume resistivity, indicating that they have good conductivity; in addition, they have moderate viscosity, good processability, good color fastness, and do not fade with low friction.

[0185] The conductive fillers in the conductive silicone rubbers of Comparative Examples 2 and 3 contain only carbon nanotubes or conductive carbon black. It can be seen that although the AC volume resistivity of Comparative Example 2 is low, its viscosity is extremely high; while the color fastness of Comparative Example 3 is extremely poor, it is easy to shed black, and its AC volume resistivity is high, resulting in poor conductivity.

[0186] As can be seen from Table 2, the data of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 show that after one year of storage, the Shore hardness of Comparative Example 1 without added pH buffer solution decreased significantly, and the T90 curing time increased substantially, while the Shore hardness and T90 curing time of Example 1 remained almost unchanged, indicating that it has good storage stability.

[0187] In summary, the conductive silicone rubber of this invention utilizes the synergistic effect of carbon black and carbon nanotubes to overcome the problems of blackening and poor color fastness caused by excessive carbon black addition in single carbon black formulation systems; it also avoids the defects of high viscosity and poor processability of pure carbon nanotube systems; the final conductive silicone rubber has the characteristics of excellent conductivity, low friction and no color fading, and good processing fluidity; in addition, the addition of pH buffer to the base rubber can greatly increase the storage stability of the prepared A and B rubbers, so that the hardness and vulcanization speed of the conductive silicone rubber obtained by mixing A and B rubbers after long-term storage are almost the same as those of fresh rubber.

[0188] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within the present invention.
