Polyethylene oxide (PEO) is a water-soluble polymer that is widely used as a model system to examine fundamental processes. This paper details an investigation into the physical, thermal and electrical properties of PEO-based nanocomposites containing a highly hydrophilic boehmite nanofiller. The boehmite was dispersed into the PEO in solution in distilled water, by using controlled shear conditions,...
Polyethylene oxide (PEO) has been used for several years as an electrolyte solvent in lithium polymer cells. One beneficial quality is its high viscosity, that remains high up to temperatures just short of its solid-state Tm, allowing the production of thin electrolyte layers. PEO batteries are sometimes preferred over lithium ion due to their greater power/weight ratio. PEO is a polar polymer and...
Crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) remains the material of choice for modern high voltage extruded cables possessing good thermal stability and excellent electrical properties. However, increasing pressure to limit the environmental effects of human activity and to promote recycling has forced researchers to look to new materials to replace XLPE in the medium to long term. Recently, a number of propylene...
