This paper examines the effect of Co-60 gamma-ray irradiation to a maximum total dose of 1000 kGy on the charge transport in polyethylene based micro/nanocomposites. Micron sized hexagonal boron nitride (BN) and nano size silica (SiO2) fillers are used in this work. Surface potential decay measurement are used to evaluate the charge transport in the composite samples. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, differential scanning calorimetry, and gel content techniques are used to understand the irradiation induced variations in the microstructure of the composites. The results indicate that the carrier trap center becomes shallower and the carrier mobility tends to increase with increasing gamma ray dose and this effect is mitigated with the addition of fillers. It is suggested that the radiation induced reduction in the crystallinity and the appearance of voids and the formation of carbonyl groups are responsible for the observed effect. The micron- and the nano-size particles hinder the penetration of oxygen, thereby reducing oxidation, and the gamma-ray irradiation induces increased charge transport in the composites.
