Description

Plasma jet device for insulating material surface modification
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of insulation preparation of power equipment, and relates to a plasma jet device for surface modification of an insulating material.
Background
With the continuous development of high-voltage direct-current transmission in China, the insulation performance of an insulation material in a direct-current electric field is widely concerned. The high molecular polymer material has good mechanical property and insulating property, and is often used as an insulating material for high-voltage equipment of an electric power system. For example, epoxy Resin (Epoxy Resin) is widely used in gas insulated transmission lines (GIL) and Gas Insulated Switches (GIS) by virtue of its excellent electrical properties, high temperature resistance, ease of preparation, and the like. However, the polymer material surface is easy to generate a phenomenon of charge accumulation under high voltage direct current, the voltage resistance of the polymer material surface is reduced, the probability of surface flashover is increased, and the operation safety of power system equipment is threatened. Researches show that the insulating property of the material can be effectively improved and the probability of flashover can be reduced by carrying out surface modification treatment on the polymer material. The atmospheric pressure plasma jet is applied to the surface modification of the material, has the advantages of simple and convenient operation, strong controllability, capability of treating complex surfaces, no environmental pollution and the like, and is a hotspot of current research.
Helium and argon are common working gases for atmospheric pressure plasma jets. The inert gas can be used as the working gas to obtain lower plasma excitation voltage, and is easier to control than air plasma. The plasma jet flow is used for surface modification, so that the flexibility is strong, different reaction media are introduced into the jet flow working gas, a large number of different types of active particles can be generated to react with the surface of a material, and the surface modification with different requirements is realized. E.g. by introducing appropriate amounts of H into the working gas 2 O, after the surface of the material is modified by the generated plasma jet, the hydrophilicity of the surface of the material can be improved; a reaction medium containing F, si or Ti is added into working gas, and after the surface of the material is modified by the generated plasma jet, a film can be deposited on the surface of the material, and F, si or Ti-containing groups are introduced, so that the surface charge accumulation phenomenon of the material is improved, and the insulation property is improved.
When plasma is used to surface treat a material, argon is generally used as a working gas. Compared with helium, the argon plasma has high chemical activity, larger action area when processing materials, low price and lower use cost. But at the same time, the argon plasma has the defects of poor discharge stability and uniformity, high breakdown voltage and the like. Helium is expensive, has small action area and low efficiency when used for modifying materials, but has better discharge uniformity and stability, low breakdown voltage and easier control. In summary, helium and argon have corresponding advantages and disadvantages as plasma working gases, and in order to achieve the best material surface modification effect, it is necessary to improve the current plasma jet device for insulating material surface modification.
