This paper describes the aging behavior of the oil impregnated repulped cellulose and compares it with the aging behavior of the oil impregnated standard cellulose. In order to evaluate the reliability of using repulped cellulose in transformers, the accelerated aging process was applied to both types of cellulose by increasing the temperature to 150 °C and their aging behavior was studied and ...

Power transformers use Kraft paper as insulation in the electrical windings present in the core, which is immersed in oil. In service, the temperature of the windings of core will go to 75C to 85C. If the transformer is over loaded, then the temperature can exceed upto 100°C causing the cellulose chains in the paper to cleave at an accelerated rate, which results in the degradation of mechanica...

Insulation cellulose paper is a basic measure for power transformer’s remaining useful life, and its advantageous low cost, electrical, mechanical properties have made it an extensive insulation system when impregnated in dielectric liquid. Cellulose deteriorates as result of ageing due to some chemical reactions like pyrolysis (heat), hydrolysis (moisture), oxidation (oxygen) that affects degr...

Using mineral oil (MO) derived from petroleum, e.g., transformer insulation, raises environmental risk and affects sustainability. Due to its affordability easy availability, MO will ineluctably be preferred over other biodegradable oils. Therefore, tools must developed recover aged MO, extend the life cycle, increase The work presented here is aimed at investigation of electrical insulation pr...

Methods are described for the separation of oligodeoxyribonucleotides and oligoribonucleotides by chromatography on thin layers of cellulose impregnated with polyethyleneimine.

In order to evaluate the reliability of using repulped cellulose in transformers, the aging process was applied on standard and repulped cellulose in a laboratory accelerated model by increasing of temperature to 150 ° C and their behavior was monitored by measuring the amount of 2-furfural released in oil by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) in the consecutive aging periods and...

Bacterial cellulose was produced by Acetobacter xylinum (strain TISTR 975). Bacterial cellulose is an interesting material for using as a wound dressing since it provides moist environment to a wound resulting in a better wound healing. However, bacterial cellulose itself has no antimicrobial activity to prevent wound infection. To achieve antimicrobial activity, silver nanoparticles were impre...

A main purpose of doing a diagnostic in cable system including its accessories such as impregnated paper insulated oil filled cable termination is to predict failure before they occur. Those cable and accessories, which are about to fail, can be replaced, thereby reducing the incidence of electrical system failure, thus reducing the electricity outages. This paper presents the work carried out ...

The resistivity of oil impregnated paper will decrease during its aging process. This paper takes paper resistivity as an assessment index to evaluate the insulation condition of oil impregnated paper in power transformer. The feasibility of this method are discussed in two aspects: reliability and sensitivity. Iterative inversion of paper resistivity was combined with finite element simulation...
