Effect of UV treatment on the dielectric strength of BOPP capacitor film
The effect of UV treatment on dielectric breakdown strength of metallized biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) capacitor film was studied. Results from Weibull statistical analysis indicate that an optimal UV exposure level of ~3.4 J/cm2 (200-400 nm) increases the breakdown strength at 1% probability by ~20%. UV spectroscopic analysis indicates that the antioxidant in BOPP was consumed almost entirely. The results suggest that antioxidant remaining in the BOPP after processing may have an unfavorable effect on the breakdown strength of the film
Large area DC dielectric breakdown voltage measurement of BOPP and PTFE thin films
The DC dielectric breakdown strength of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thin films is not widely available. A large-area breakdown measurement on self-clearing polymer films rapidly provides extensive data sets, but presents challenges in data analysis. This research extends the large-area method used on BOPP and other polymers to PTFE thin films. Measurements obtained from the large-area method are compared to more traditional, single breakdown per sample measurements.
Texture Feature Extraction of RGB, HSV, YIQ and Dithered Images using GLCM, Wavelet Decomposition Techniques
When changing the format of an image from simple RGB to HSV, YIQ and Dithered image, the characteristics of image also change. In this paper, the similar images in the above formats are retrieved using statistical and structural retrieving techniques i.e. GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) and Wavelet Decomposition techniques. The best results are coming for dithered, HSV images by using GLCM technique for feature extraction and by using Wavelet decomposition; HSV images are giving the best results. While other formats also give the correct retrieval but from the accuracy point of view, HSV images are retrieved with better accuracy using both techniques.
