Fig. 1 shows Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis of phase-change microcapsules without doped ferromagnetic nanoparticles, wherein the phase-change microcapsules have a monodisperse spherical structure, a particle size of about 9 μm, and a uniform size.
Fig. 2 is an energy spectrum (EDS) analysis of the phase change microcapsule doped with ferromagnetic nanoparticles, and the surface of the phase change microcapsule modified with ferromagnetic nanoparticles has a uniform distribution of a large amount of iron elements, indicating that the ferromagnetic nanoparticles are bonded to the surface of the microsphere. The ferromagnetic nano particles modify the surface of the microsphere and have the function of guiding the development of the electric tree to the vicinity of the phase change microcapsule.
FIGS. 3 to 4 are diagrams of the shapes of the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box without the phase-change microcapsule and the polylactic acid shell material of the electric energy metering box with the phase-change microcapsule for 60 min. Partial discharges of the material in the insulating layer due to excessively high concentrated field strengths lead to dendritic ageing of the insulating material, known as electrical dendrites. As can be seen from the figure, when the withstand voltage time is 60min, the longitudinal lengths of the electric tree branches in the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage power metering box without the phase-change microcapsule and the polylactic acid shell material of the power metering box with the phase-change microcapsule are 342.4 μm and 312.5 μm respectively, and the transverse lengths are 541.8 μm and 296.7 μm respectively. The electric tree in the polylactic acid shell material of the electric energy metering box containing the phase-change microcapsules is in a dense cluster shape, the electric tree in the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box without the phase-change microcapsules is sparse, and the longitudinal length and the transverse length are respectively reduced by 8.7 percent and 45.2 percent. The phase change microcapsule effectively inhibits the growth of electric tree branches in the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box, and improves the dielectric property of the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box.
Fig. 5-6 are partial discharge signal diagrams of the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box without the phase-change microcapsule and the polylactic acid shell material of the electric energy metering box with the phase-change microcapsule for 60min of withstand voltage respectively, and it can be seen from the diagrams that the partial discharge inside the sample mainly occurs at the stage of gradually increasing power frequency alternating voltage and is less influenced by withstand voltage time. The discharge voltage amplitude is observed to find that when the voltage is withstand for 60min, the average discharge amplitude of the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box without the phase-change microcapsule is 1.73mV, the average discharge amplitude of the polylactic acid shell material of the electric energy metering box with the phase-change microcapsule is 1.12mV, and the average discharge amplitude is reduced by 35.2%, which shows that the internal partial discharge strength of the polylactic acid shell material of the electric energy metering box is weakened, and the partial discharge process is inhibited, thereby proving that the phase-change microcapsule has an inhibiting effect on the development of electrical branches in the polylactic acid shell material of the low-voltage electric energy metering box, and realizing the anti-electrical aging effect of the polylactic acid shell material of the electric energy metering box.
