Abstract :
The role of ions in the electrical breakdown process of liquids is presently insufficiently understood. Ions induce local changes to the electrical properties of water as well as contribute to the conductivity. The lag time to breakdown has been measured for various solution concentrations and hydrostatic pressures. The properties of both pure liquids and electrolytic solutions and their pressure dependence are discussed in the context of the observations.
