Abstract
This paper investigates the erosion of silicone rubber composites filled with various fillers. The fillers under study are alumina tri-hydrate, magnesium hydroxide and silica in a liquid silicone ru bber. The inclined plane tracking and erosion test was used to compare the erosion of the composite materials at 50 wt% filler level and at 4.5 kV. Simultaneous thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses are reported which shows various mechanisms by which the fillers can su ppress the dry­ band arcing erosion. The effect of water of hydration in the alumina tri-hyd rate and magnesium hydroxide is investigated and its effect on the suppression of the dry-band arcing erosion is reported for the composites filled with alumina tri-hydrate and magnesiu m hydroxide.
