Abstract

Condensers are widely used for many purposes. These devices are employed in one form or another in radio transmitting and allied industries such as television and amplifier circuits. They are used in automatic equipment, telephone, telegraph, and railway signal equipment as well as in condenser type motors. Condensers reduce sparking and arcing at contact relay points, switches, circuit breakers, time clocks, and thermostats. A vital part of a condenser is the dielectric. In present day condensers mineral oil is used extensively.

The purpose of this investigation is to study other organic compounds in an effort to find a good di electric·, one that is more suitable than mineral oil.
