Abstract
In this paper, a novel modification method for biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) membranes is proposed based on surface-grafting technology. The experimental results show that, compared with the pristine samples, the surface-grafted films show better breakdown strength under different voltage stress especially at higher temperatures (85 °C). The DC withstand strength of the surface-grafted PP membranes grows by 42.7% from 386.4 to 551.2 kV/mm. The breakdown strength climbs by 63.5% from 305.9 to 500.2 kV/mm under DC superimposed pulse voltage. Under DC superimposed harmonic stress, the breakdown strength is increased from 175.6 to 587.4 kV/mm by 234%. The influence of surface modification on charge transmission behavior is proposed based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulation. This research provides a theoretical and methodological reference for performance optimization by surface modification for BOPP capacitors.
