Capacitive polymer-matrix composites (PMCs) were fabricated with various nanofillers, defined as nanodielectrics. Surface modification of nanofillers was conducted to improve the homogeneity of nanocomposites. A capacitive sensor was designed and fabricated to measure dielectric properties of thermally aged cable jackets for the purpose of nuclear power plant (NPP) cable status monitoring. Silanized-Si/epoxy nanocomposites were studied for structural capacitors. The surface treatment of Si nanoparticles by silane coupling agents was achieved to improve dispersion of nanofillers in an epoxy matrix. The nanocomposite shows an increase of dielectric breakdown strength and dielectric constant with no significant increase in loss tangent at 10 w...
