Abstract :
L. J. Berberich1 discusses the stability of hydrocarbon oils used for capacitor, cable and transformer insulation, and states that considerable evidence has been presented that all oils contain natural oxidation inhibitors. There is evidence that these inhibitors are derivatives of aromatic hydrocarbons, rather than the aromatic hydrocarbons themselves. He further discusses the mechanism of oil oxidation.
