Popis: Polyethylene thin films of different thickness have been obtained by evaporation method. We have produced the treeing discharge by electron beam irradiation. The films have been examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron diffraction (ED), before and after irradiation. It is observed that: (1) the polyethylene thin films have a structure of the fine spherulites before irradiation; (2) structural damages (channels, treeing figures and zones in which the material was melted and resolidified) accompanying the space charge produced in thin polyethylene films.
