The relation between the chemical structure of anti additives and streaming current

Experiments were conducted to determine whether electrification is most effectively reduced by ionic or nonionic additive substances. The authors performed tests on the antielectrification effects of a variety of additives, and found that, for use with transformer oil, nonionic substances give more satisfactory results. In the present experiment, the relation between chemical structure and the electrification inhibiting effect was evaluated for 11 types of nonionic additives (of the polyethylene group) having known structures.<
