OSTI ID:6544690
Sandia National Laboratories is currently interested in the development of a polymer film capacitor that is tolerant to radiation. The capacitors are to be utilized in a high voltage-plus discharge application. Radiation response data at high dose/dose rate levels are presented for polyvinylidene fluoride (PVF/sub 2/), polysulfone, and Mylar. The results show that PVF/sub 2/ is the most radiation tolerant while Mylar is the least tolerant. The data also show that the radiation response is quite dependent on operating electric stress. Although PVF/sub 2/ has good radiation tolerance and a dielectric constant which is a factor of three larger than Mylar and polysulfone, PVF/sub 2/ has properties which complicate its use as a capacitor dielectric. Electrical properties of these materials will be presented and discussed.
