however in that a physical examination or chemical analysis of the layers after thermoparticulation may indicate the maximum temperature to which the area was exposed since the lower layers may not be as severely damaged this information is useful in determining the extent of damage to the insulation in the generator the composition is applied to portions of the electrical apparatus which are exposed to the gas stream the coating formed does not function as insulation and is usually applied on top of insulation but can also be applied to conductors the greases are usually applied to conductors the application may be made by painting spraying dipping grease gun or other techniques a suitable coating thickness after drying is about 1 16 inch the particles of tpc should not be covered with excessive resinous carrier as that may prevent the decomposition particles from escaping into the gas stream after evaporation of the solvent and room temperature cure of the resinous carrier if necessary the apparatus is ready to be operated ______________________________________ parts by weight______________________________________zinc acetyl acetonate 2 zn c sub 5 h sub 7 o sub 2 2h sub 2 odimethyl malonic acid 8 c sub 2 h sub 5 sub 2 cooh sub 2 34 krytox 240 ad 34 grease 2epoxy resin 50 solids in toluenemade from 200 pbw parts by.
