Introduction: Cellulose
Paper is hygroscopic.
Moisture may p enetrate to the interior of the
insulation and will be affecting the electrical properties
and causing further degradation. Since the process of
cellulose degradation is not reversible, results in a
limited life span of the transformer with the life span of
the cellulose. Ageing of cellulose is due to pyrolysis,
oxidation and hydrolysis causing a reduction in
mechanical strength [1], [2]. Dielectric properties have
to improve in an insulation system and hence
development of novel polymer insulation technology for
power transformers is necessary [4]. The current
situation in the power industry together with worldwide
economic and environmental situation, have led to a
renewed interest in insulation technology. Novel
polymer insulation technology is growing and expanding.
Polymers are widely used for a variety of electrical
applications and finding increasing applications in
power sector. The electrical properties of such polymers
are strongly influenced to the environmental induced
degradation mechanisms.
