Atmospheric pressure plasma jet deposition of TiO2 layer on alumina/epoxy to improve electrical properties

  • In gas-insulated lines, basin-insulators can accumulate charge under non-uniform electric fields, distorting the field distribution and potentially causing surface flashover, which threatens the stability of power systems. In this study, Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jet (APPJ) technology was used to deposit TiO2 on the surface of alumina/epoxy (Al2O3/EP) composites. The impact of deposition of TiO2 layer on the surface morphology and chemical composition of Al2O3/EP was studied using testing methods such as Scanning Electron Microscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer, and Energy Dispersive Spectrometer. It was found that APPJ creates a dense, rough Ti-O layer on the Al2O3/EP surface, which bonds tightly with the substrate. The efficacy of APPJ was found to depend on processing time, with optimal results observed at 3 min, DC and AC flashover voltages increased by 29.6% and 15.7%, respectively. TiO2 layer enhances the conductivity of the resin and shallows trap levels. Through the synergistic effects of various factors, surface charges are efficiently dissipated and evenly distributed. This study not only reveals the physicochemical process of TiO2 deposition via APPJ but also integrates surface characteristics with electrical performance. The findings offer a new strategy to enhance surface flashover voltage and ensure equipment safety.
