Abstract

Abstract The capacitors of this invention are impregnated with a composition having high dielectric strength, excellent insulation resistance, low dissipation factor, excellent resilience when new and after long storage, and resistance to pulse testing which is very high. Their cost is low. They involve impregnants being a liquid, hydroxyl terminated butadiene homopolymer catalytically cross-linked by diallyl isophthalate or the like. A preferred catalyst combination is revealed. Methods of impregnation are discussed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 21 words
A capacitor per claim 1 in which the polybutadiene contains about 60 percent trans-1,4; 20 percent cis-1,4; and 20 percent vinyl-1,2.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 15 words
A capacitor per claim 1 in which the composition also contains an organic peroxide catalyst.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
A capacitor according to claim 1 in which the capacitor includes a multiplicity of layers comprising paper.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A capacitor according to claim 1 in which the capacitor includes a multiplicity of layers comprising reconstituted mica.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
The capacitor of claim 1 in which the impregnant includes a catalyst being a mixture of dicumyl peroxide and 2,5-dimethyl-2,5 di (tertiary butyl peroxy) hexane.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 97 words
A method of making impregnated capacitors which comprises impregnating a capacitor with a liquid composition according to claim 1 at a temperature of 150* -160* F. + or - 10* F. and a pressure maximum of 5 Torr absolute, soaking the impregnated capacitor, applying pressure circa 50-60 p.s.i. thereto, subjecting the capacitor to vacuum, soaking it at atmospheric pressure at 150* to 160* F. + or - 10* F., subjecting it to pressure of circa 50-60 p.s.i., returning it to atmospheric pressure at 160* F., and curing the capacitor at a temperature of 275* to 450* F.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 31 words
The method of claim 7 in which the capacitor comprises paper and the curing temperature is first on the order of 275* F. and thereafter on the order of 300* F.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 8 in which the capacitor includes reconstituted mica and the curing includes a stage at about 450* F.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
The method of claim 7 including as a catalyst a mixture of dicumyl peroxide and 2,5-dimethyl-2,5 di (tertiary butyl peroxy) hexane.
