ABSTRACT

The electrophysical properties of HDPE/ZrO2 composites based on micro- and nanosized zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) were studied. The influence of both filler sizes and gamma radiation on the electrophysical properties of HDPE /ZrO2 composites was investigated. It was shown that the filler concentration in HDPE /ZrO2 nanocomposites is higher than in microcomposites, which leads to an increase in the effective interfacial surface area and enhanced interaction between the components. An increase in the gamma radiation dose leads to an increase in the interfacial adhesive interaction and a decrease in the mobility of macromolecules in the matrix due to an increase in the density of radiation crosslinks.

Keywords: HDPE /ZrO2 nano- and microcomposite, polyethylene, electrophysical properties, gamma radiation
