Abstract
Space charge behavior such as charge distributions and conduction characteristics has been investigated by treating three low density polyethylenes having equivalent density (0.920 g/㎤) and melt index (2.0 g/10 min) in a xylene solution at 50∼72℃. It is found that the short chains of low molecular weight are removed by a boiling xylene solution increases with the increase of extraction temperature, the amount of which is different sample to sample and that short chains affect charge accumulation in a different manner depending on samples. In the case of conduction characteristics, the removal of short chains reduces current densities in all samples, but a space-charge-limited conduction (SCLC) mechanism found in control LDPE samples remains unchanged regardless of extraction temperature. The charge formation in LDPE is also found to be independent of content of chemical structural irregularities.

밀도가 0.920 g/㎤이고 용융지수가 2.0 g/10 min 정도인 세 저밀도 폴리에틸렌을 xylene으로 50∼72℃의 온도범위에서 추출한 후 이들 시료의 전하분포와 전기전도특성을 조사하였다. 용매추출온도에 따라 추출되는 짧은 사슬의 함량은 증가하나 그 양은 시료에 따라 다르며 이들 짧은 사슬이 전하축적 현상에 미치는 영향도 각기 다른 것으로 밝혀졌다. 전기전도특성의 경우 용매추출이 전기전도도를 감소시키기는 하지만 전기전도기구는 모두 동일한 공간전하 제한전도기구를 따른다. 각 시료의 공간전하거동은 화학결함농도와는 무관한 것으로 나타났다.
