In recent years, the number of high-voltage transmission lines has sharply increased with the rapid development of modern industry. However, a corona discharge phenomenon often occurs on the exposed high-voltage transmission lines, leading to energy loss and noise pollution. Herein, we have proposed a facile spraying method to prepare a superhydrophobic and thermally conductive coating to restrain the corona discharge phenomenon of high-voltage transmission lines, with vinyl silicone oil and hydrogen silicone oil as the main materials and modified boron nitride (BN) as a thermal conductive filler. The obtained composite coating exhibited superhydrophobicity, with a high water contact angle of 162°. In addition, the coating also showed a good self-cleaning capability, non-adhesion capability, mechanical stability, and chemical stability. Owing to the construction of the thermally conductive pathways with BN, the thermal conductivity of the coating reached 1.05 W/m·K, which was beneficial to quickly dissipating the heat generated by the current heating effect. Moreover, the corona losses of the positive and negative electrodes under simulated rainy conditions were decreased by 7.43% and 8.05%, respectively. The findings of our work have provided a new strategy to effectively restrain the corona discharge phenomenon of transmission lines, showing great application potential in the field of high-voltage power networks.
