ELECTRICAL DiTA ON ,,ROCLORo Introduction Time hae cot permitted ua to carry out electrical measurements on all of the Aroclor samples sent by your laboratory and as listed In your letter to Dr. C. K. Bump of June 27, 1947, It -roe hollered that dielectric constant, ions factor, and direct current resistivity measurements over a temperature range for e Ion chlorinated and highly chlorinated biphenyl; also one sample each of the terphanyl and the mixed biphenyl and terphenyl aeries would represent the electrical be havior of Aroolora. The tj*end of the eleotrlcsl properties of the samples not measured oan be estimated; l.e. as the viscosity of the \roclors of a particu lar series increases, the loss factor will decrease and the loss faotor maximum (II' within the temporature range measured) will be shifted to higher temperatures. An increase in viscosity will increase the resis tivity of the Aroclor, The dielectric constant of material is a meosure of its polBrizability. Therefore, any ohange in the structure of the mleoule which will Increase its polarizability will oauae an incroase in dielectric constant. Accuracy )f Data The accuracy of the alternating current data is dependent on the dissipation foctor of the dleloctrlc at a particular frequency and a particular temperature. The dielectric constant values are acourete within .2% provided tho dissipation factor la less than 10JS. The error is greater with increasing dissipation factor. The accuracy of loss factor (dielectric constant 1 dissipation factor) is also dependent on dissipation factor, Aroclor 5442 was the only sample which had a dlasi rat ion faotor greeter than 10 and that occurred at the following conditions; 41 *C, 500 cycles . 41 *C, 750 eyolea 35*C, 500 oyolee It will be noted that the dielectric constant* extrapolated to 100*C. ohock satisfactorily with the value* listed in your letter to Dr, Dump. The direct current resistivity values have a 30ft error for the greatest rralstance readings on our Instrument. For lower resistance values the error decreases. Aroclora 1221, 1254 showed an increase in resistance with time whioh is indicative of polarisation effects. For these materials then, resistance was read after the voltage "ms epplled and then at the end of one minute - an empirical method used for taking a reudable value. Aroolora 4465 and 5442 did not show noticeable pola- COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 011923 HARTOLDMON0024706 "2 - 13 100 ' December 2, 1947 rlz.etlon effects, even at the high tcnperaturea. Data The dielectric constant of Aroclor 1221 and 1254 is Independent of frequency, The dielectric conntant of Aroclor 4465 end 5442 Is also Independent of frequency at the high temperatures. The liquld-llke properties of 4465 and 5442 disappear at the lower temperatures where dispersion region becomes evident. It will be notloed that the dielectric constant curves (at the lover tempera tures) hate the earns order as those of the corresponding loss factor curves end the inflection regions ooour at the loss factor maxima tem peratures* The loss factor curves of 5442 at the higher temperatures show a eharp up-awing, indicative of o large conductance component in the lose faotor. Similarly, the loss factor curves of 1221 and 1254 seem to be In the conductance region. Aroclor 1221 showed on unu.iual sensitivity in changing lose factor values and os great an insensitivity to change in dielectric constant. It was found that a sample measured Initially at room temperature and meusured at successively increasing temperatures gave different loss footor values when compared to meesurenents made with the initial tem perature high and then successively lowered. Results showed that raining the temperature of the liquid or allowing the material to stand in the open for long periods always lowered the Iosb factor, probably volatilizing the more conducting or the high loss substances in the Aroclor, Below 5000 oycles this effect was very noticeable, the diffe rences inrreaslnr with decreasing frequency. It may be mentioned here that loss factor measurements at low frequencies might possibly be used os an analytical tool or ss a oontrol method of indicating volatile subetanoes contained in ths Aroclor 1200 series. The log resistivity versus 1/T graph is useful as an indication of the chang,e that occurs in resistivity with temperature - or what is related, the change in viscosity with temperature. The actual slopes of 4463 and 5442 cannot be assured since there should have been more measurements made at high temperatures, However these two Aroclor a have a much larger viscosity-temperature coefficient than the other two plots. It is hoped that the enclosed -ranhs will summarize the dielectrlo properties of the Aroclors measured.

Chi or ice ted diphenyl is manufactured by I.G. Farben under tne trade narw of Clophen, Gone types are liquid and others solid at norraal tempersturea. They are used as impregnanta aa alternatives to hydrocarbon oils end waxes. Clophen shares with other chlorinated materials a high permittivity and has the same dangers in handling, due to noxious properties. In addition to the grades suited to capacitor impregnation, a grade known os T64 is made by 1.0. Ferben, suitable for trans former cooling.

It wee stated that no German capacitor manufacturer uses Clophen for the manufacture of small capacitors for radio and telephone purposos end where these have been used by the Ger man fighting services they were supplied by the Italian firm, Ducati. - 2. Manufacture. (1) The synthesis of diphenyl from benzene. Diphenyl is synthesised from benzene as shown in the figure, following:- COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 011933 HARTOLDMON0024711 --v'W'v---Condenser Distilling Column S\ 500-650*C - 200 *C Two-stace Host Drchenger Reaotlon Coil 800*0 Synthesis of Diphenyl from Benzene The synthesis occurs in the vapour phase, at 000*0. and atmospheric pressure, in an electrically heated reaction coil of copper-nanconeoe alloy. No catalyst is required. Th appoyatus, apart from the reaction coll, is of iron, and operates at the temperatures shown above, /.bout 10,' of the benzene vopour Is converted Lnto diphenyl in one passage through the reaction coll. The purity of the benzene is of importance for the elec trical quality of the ultimate chlorinated produota and a specification Is attached overleaf. The benzene used was believed to contain 0,2 to 0.3JC of paraffins but little definite information could be obtained regarding any undesirable Impurities or the mechanism by whioh they cause poor electrical performance. Thiophene wes stated to be definitely harmful, and vague reference vb made to "nitro-compounds", to "aliphatic hydrocarbons" and to "substances which could not be chlorinated". The pre iae nature of these materials was not known, but their absence woe ensured by obtaining benzene always from suppliers whose product wos known to be satisfactory,, Analytical Speciflcatlon for Pure Benzene Appearance: Clear and colourless.

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 0L193, HARTOLDMON0024712 Difficulty in the synthesis wan still bein^ experienced, due to rapid corrosion of the copper-manganese reaction coil, operating at 800*U. A smell scale experimental pporotuo using a fused silica coll had been made, but had not beon developed for production use. In addition to diphenyl, ebout 5% each of 1-3 and 1-4 terphenyle are produced by the process. These are se parated, chlorincted and used in seeling Tarnishes; present production is about 4 tone per month. No use is mode of chlorterphenyls as paper lmpre^nants, since the materials are resinous and tend to crack; moreover the permittivities are lower then thoas of the chlordlphenyls. The crude diphenyl is next purified by distillation. During this process the ternhenyls remain in the residue. They ere extracted In the following meaner;- fhe residue is dissolved In hot benzene, filtered, and the 1-4 isomer obtained by fractional crystallization. The crude product is distilled in vaoue, yielding 1-4 tex-phenyl with malting point of 208*C . The 1-3 isomer, remaining in solution in benzene, is more difficult to Isolate. The solution is clarified with activated char coal, filtered, und the benzene evaporated. The residue is distilled to yield 1-3 terphenyl with siting point 80-64*0 . (2) Chlorination of diphenyl. For the chlorination of diphenyl a lead lined vessel of 10,000 litres capacity is used. It is charged with 6000 kg. of diphenyl and 15 kg. of ferric chloride. The mix ture is heated to 110*0., agitated and chlorine passes. In. The addition of chlorine is continued for 100 hours at a rate of 130-135 kg/hur during which tine the tem perature is raised gradually from 110*C. to 130*C, The end point of the chlorination is determined by measuring the density of the product. To remove hydrogen chloride formed in the process, dry air is blown through the liquid for 2 hours and this hy drogen chloride is recovered. The product Is transferred to another vessel and treated with 1/25! of solid sodium hydroxide, heated and agitated. The sodium hydroxide is allowed to settle oat and the Clophen drawn off from the top, transferred to another vessel to which Fuller's earth and soda are added and the liquid redistilled. The stills for this process are gas heated. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 011935 HARTOLDMONOQ24713 3 Prcpcft Le b ,, ' , (1) Capacitor impregnating grades.

No detailed infaristion was sought on this material, since it is unsuitable as a capocitor lmprejment and is only used as a ooolont for tranuformers and phase shifters. A summary of ite physical and chemical properties la civen in Appendix IV. It haa a low viscosity, la moderately stable under electrical stresses and has the distinct ad vantage over mineral oils of beln^ non-inflammable. The principal users of this product are A.E.O. and "Jlemene, but It is understood that, as with other chlorinated ecropounds, consorvotism end prejudice amonc customers have prevented its wider use. No stabilisers are added to the material a a their function of absorbing hydrochloric acid would be defeated by the formation of "chloride salts", which In turn become elec trolysed. It was ssid to be very important to avoid con tamination of Clophon T64 which may occur In transit and for this reason the use of leather for raskets must be avoided. 4. Methods of use, precautions, etc. No details were obtained on the method of impregnation used by I.G. for the construction of test-specimens of Clophen-impregnated capacitor. This was pertly coused by the non appearance, after the first day, of Engelhardt, but it is not considered likely that any novel processes are Involved, For information on the precautions necessary in the use of Clophen, teti lection II, 5, above. r 12/19/47 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 011937 HARTOLDMON0024715 IIT-A-t - 500 ">on - R.1,0,0, Final heport Mo, P93 Item tJos. 1, 7, 02 and 31 P0 x It Clophen Is mode In several rT-dos, which oorrecpond closely with their U.3. counterparts, A,50 beinc the crude moat commonly used for capacitors, t L'xcept for very rare use by "Uemons and rialnke for special orders, Clophen hc-a not been used In Germany for amall capacitors of the tele communication typo, but it hes been ueod extensively by Olenons-ichuckert for pov/er oapacitors.

In power factor correction and hlph roltage applications It Is consider ed practically ideal* The only type of Clophen used in bulk is A.50, pentachlordlphenyl, (corresponding to Aroelor 1254). A.30 end A.40 have been tried and found unstable, A.60, A.70 end A.80 ure too viscous to allow for pood irapregnatl on and have lower permittivities. Although the viscosity of A.50 at room temperature Is much rreater than that of oil, the viscosity at Impregnation temperature la sufficiently low to give do trouble in attaining thorough inrpregpna t ion. A routine check on conductivity Is mode on each drum of Clophen, and formerly if the conductivity were too high, the Clophen was treated with po?/dered chalk to neutralise the free acid. As the result of continual pressure on I.G. over a period of years, the acid content had gra dually diminished, and It la now possible without chalk ' treatment to work to the same rejection limit of resis tivity as for oil, vlx. 1013 ohn..em. at 20 *C. Drums of Clophen foiling to pass the conductivity test are returned to I.G., unless urgently needed. A certain elasticity is permissible in view of the hi^i standard set- Apert from conductivity, further acceptance checks are specific gravity (1.54-1,55) and permittivity (5.0 5,2). Permittivity is measured at 800 oycltjs and 20*C. on a Gchering bridge at low voltage. The acceptance standards for Clophen A.50 are shown graphically in Appendix XXXIV. Clophen costs about 1 li. 60 pfg./kg., and la therefore much dearer than oil (30 pfg./kr.). This extra expense ia offset, however, by the use of a special design whieh reduces the amount of Clophen required. An ad vantage claimed for this iapregnant Is that Is has a similar permittivity to paper (via. 5). Other lmpreppanta studied. As Clophen la considered nearly ideal, no serious attempts have been made to find superior moterials or addi tives to improve Its performance, This ettitude Is sup per ted by service experience, in whieh no failures have been reported. It is realised, however, that on froezing discharges nay oeeur in the eoatraetlon voids, whieh may result in decomposition of the Clophen and failure of the COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 01 L9 39 HARTOLDMON0024717 dielectric. Tests were performed (see 'Section 17, 2, (3)) to check whether this depredation does in fact occur, end no failure we3 noted. Nevertheless, 1.0. supplied snail samples resembling Clophen A.50 but having a lower melting point so thut this possible source of failure r. >uld be Investigated. De pression of the temperature at which the dipoles bacerr* lrmoblle should raise the maximum usable frequency and hence broaden the range of applications by introducing those ror eudlo-frequenoy furnaces. Two of these I.G, sonnies, with references A.1621! ond A.162N, are, like Clophen, rode fron benzene, but hare a lower chlorine content because of the presence of un additional alkyl croup (CnH2n`,T) Qn(5 hence a lower density. Their advantage over Clophen A.50 is that the setting point (l.e. tamporcture of maximum dispersion and of capacitance diminution) la lo-.vored from -0*C. to -17*C, The permit tivity, viscosity and non-inflamroblllty resemble those of Clophen A.50.
