Description
Summary:A sample of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and a polar plasticizer consisting of dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) was prepared and found to possess inconvenient electrical properties (permittivity, dielectric loss, and conductivity). Different samples of PVC compositions were formulated from the PVC–DOP–DBP system and also variable proportions of a copolymer of 1‐octadecene‐maleic anhydride or its hexadecylester. Lead stearate as a heat stabilizer and kaolin as a filler were added. The effect of copolymer structure on the electrical properties of the PVC–DOP–DBP system was studied to obtain a plasticized PVC of good electrical insulation character. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
