The pirelli gassing tendency of transformer oils

Because of the changing supply situation for “transformer oils,” it is particularly important to understand the mechanisms by which these oils react. In particular, if the compositional dependences of these reactions can be established, oils from different crude oil sources or refining processes can be more readily assessed and used with confidence. Optimum compositions can be established, processing techniques leading to the optimum can be considered and improved techniques to continually assess the quality of the resulting oils can be developed.
