Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The effect of crosslinking degree on accelerated water tree aging in crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) was investigated. The peroxide-crosslinking process was adopted to make XLPE specimens with different degrees of crosslinking by controlling the doping content of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) in low-density polyethylene (LDPE). The water blade electrode method was applied to accelerate water-tree aging of LDPE and XLPE specimens (hereafter referred to as the specimens), and their morphologies were observed using an optical microscope. The variation of crystalline morphology and anti-cracking performance of the amorphous region in the specimens were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and an electronic universal testing machine. Based on the experimental results, it was found that XLPE has great anti-water-treeing performance compared to LDPE. In addition, the higher the crosslinking degree, the better the anti-water-treeing performance. Although crystal growth is inhibited due to the crosslinking reaction, the density of tie molecular chains greatly increases in the amorphous region and exhibits significantly tighter lamellar stacking, which is the reason that water tree growth is restrained with increasing crosslinking degree.
