29、C:2013 INTRODUCTION The establishment of suitable criteria for the evaluation of the radiation resistance of insulating materials is very complex, since such criteria depend upon the conditions under which the materials are used. For instance, if an insulated cable is flexed during a refuelling oper

30、ation in a reactor, the service life will be that time during which the cable receives a radiation dose sufficient to reduce to a specified value one or more of the relevant mechanical properties. Temperature of operation, composition of the surrounding atmosphere and the time interval during which

31、the total dose is received (dose rate or flux) are important factors which also determine the rate and mechanisms of chemical changes. In some applications, temporary changes may be the limiting factor. Given this, it becomes necessary to define the radiation fields in which materials are exposed an

32、d the radiation dose subsequently absorbed by the material. It is also necessary to establish procedures for testing the mechanical and electrical properties of materials which will define the radiation degradation and link those properties with application requirements in order to provide an approp

BS EN 60544-1:201360544-1 IEC:2013 7 ELECTRICAL INSULATING MATERIALS DETERMINATION OF THE EFFECTS OF IONIZING RADIATION Part 1: Radiation interaction and dosimetry 1 Scope This part of IEC 60544 deals broadly with the aspects to be considered in evaluating the effects of

34、 ionizing radiation on all types of organic insulating materials. It also provides, for X-rays, -rays, and electrons, a guide to dosimetry terminology, methods for dose measurements, testing carried out at irradiation facilities, evaluation and testing of material characteristics and properties, doc

Dosimetry that might be carried out at locations of use of the material is not described in this standard. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

38、as the following definitions apply. 3.1 exposure X measure of an electromagnetic radiation field (X- or -radiation) to which a material is exposed Note 1 to entry: The exposure is the quotient obtained by dividing dQ by dm, where dQ is the absolute value of the total charge of the ions of one sign p

39、roduced in the air when all of the electrons (and positrons) liberated by photons in air of mass dm are completely stopped in air: 1References in square brackets refer to the Bibliography. BS EN 60544-1:2013 8 60544-1 IEC:2013 mQXdd= (1) The SI unit of exposure is the coulomb (C) per kilogram: C/kg.

40、 The old unit is the roentgen R: 1 R = 2,58 10-4C/kg. The exposure thus describes the effect of an electromagnetic field on matter in terms of the ionization that the radiation produces in a standard reference material, air. 3.2 electron charge fluence Q quotient obtained by dividing dQ by dA, where

41、 dQ is the electron charge impinging during the time t on the area dA: AQQdd= (2) 3.3 electron current density j quotient obtained by dividing dQ by dt, where dQ is the electron charge fluence during the time interval dt: tAQtQjddddd2= (3) 3.4 absorbed dose D measure of the energy imparted to the ir

42、radiated material, regardless of the nature of the radiation field Note 1 to entry: The absorbed dose D is the quotient obtained by dividing d by dm where d is the mean energy imparted by ionizing radiation to matter of mass dm: mDdd= (4) The SI unit is the gray (Gy). The old unit is the rad: 1 Gy =

43、 1 J kg-1(= 102rad). Since this definition does not specify the absorbing material, the gray can be used only with reference to a specific material. The absorbed dose is determined in part by the composition of the irradiated material. When exposed to the same radiation field, therefore, different m

44、aterials usually receive different absorbed doses. Note 2 to entry: For purposes of dosimetry, it has been found convenient to specify dose in terms of dose to water. The dose to other materials can be found by applying cavity theory. 3.5 absorbed dose rate Dquotient obtained by dividing dD by dt, w

45、here dD is the increment of absorbed dose in the time interval dt: tDDdd=(5) BS EN 60544-1:201360544-1 IEC:2013 9 The SI unit of absorbed dose rate is the gray per second: 1 Gy s-1= 1 W kg-1(= 102rad s-1= 0,36 Mrad h-1) 4 Radiation-induced changes and their evaluation 4.1 General Although the variou

46、s types of radiation interact with matter in different ways, the primary process is the production of ions and electrically excited states of molecules which, in turn, may lead to the formation of free radicals. The technique to detect ions, excited states and radicals (short-lived intermediate spec

47、ies) are briefly described in Clause A.4. Radiation-generated mobile electrons, which become trapped at sites of low potential energy, are also produced. The first phenomenon leads to permanent chemical, mechanical, and electrical changes of the material; the second results in temporary electrical c

48、hanges in performance 2. 4.2 Permanent changes In polymeric materials, the formation of free radicals during irradiation leads to scission and cross-linking processes that modify the chemical structure of the insulation, generally leading to deterioration of the mechanical properties. This mechanica

49、l deterioration frequently gives rise to significant electrical property changes. However, important electrical property changes sometimes occur before mechanical degradation becomes serious. For example, a change in dissipation factor or in permittivity might become serious for the reliable functioning of a resonant circuit. The extent of scission and cross-linking processes depends on the absorbed dose, the absorbed dose rate,
