摘要
This is a laboratory study on the aging of SIR and hydrophobicity recovery. UV radiation, corona discharges, acid rain, dry-band arcing are employed as sources of the aging. Chemical and morphological analysis is used to detect the surface chemical and structural changes derived from these stresses, The nature of highly mobile low molecular weight (LMW) chains achieving a quick recovery of the hydrophobicity is carefully examined. Their generation and extinction caused by these stresses are investigated. From this study, it is shown that oxidation that induces crosslinking, branching, interchanging and a formation of silanol groups are the most dominant chemical reactions during the aging of SIR. Furthermore, silanol groups that are byproducts of oxidation restrict the diffusion of mobile LMW chains, which decreases the recovery speed of hydrophobicity and accelerates the aging. A typical aging scenario of SIR from the installation to the end of their life is drawn.
