The invention belongs to the technical field of crosslinked
polyethylene, and particularly relates to crosslinked
polyethylene for a high-
voltage cable and a preparation method of the crosslinked
polyethylene. The cross-linked polyethylene for the high-
voltage cable is prepared from the following raw materials in parts by weight: 100 parts of low-density polyethylene, 3.5 to 4.5 parts of nano filler master batch, 0.30 to 0.35 part of
tetra [beta-(3, 5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionic acid]
pentaerythritol ester, 0.7 to 0.8 part of 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine
oxide, 0.7 to 0.8 part of 4-allyloxy-2-hydroxybenzophenone, 0.7 to 0.8 part of 2, 5-dimethyl-2, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 1.0 to 1.2 parts of 2, 5-di-tert-butylperoxy-3-
hexyne; and 0.8 to 1.0 part of tert-butyl peroxyisononanoate. The crosslinked polyethylene for the high-
voltage cable has excellent tensile strength and
breakdown strength.
