The implement of oil-pressboard insulation may lead to surface electrification and discharge at the interface under certain condition. It is of significant importance to take an insight into the phenomenon occurring at the interface. Through experiment, the pressboard is found as a porous material. The interface changes abruptly from bulk pressboard to the bulk oil as a result of the porous structure. A new model is proposed which divides the interface into bulk oil region, transition region, and bulk pressboard region. The width of the transition region is decided according to the microtome figure. The effective permittivity of the transition region is calculated using a new model based on fractal theory. The model is validated and compared with previous calculation model. The effect of the existence of transition region on the electric field distribution is discussed.展开更多

The following main conclusions were obtained. For clay possessing structural negative charges, the PZNC independent of electrolyte concentration （c） should exist just as amphoteric solid without structural charges such as oxides or hydroxides. A common intersection point （CIP） should appear among the potentiometric （or acid-base） titration curves at different c and the pH at the CIP should be PHPZNC. A CIP among potentiometric titration curves at different c for kaolinite was observed, and the value of PHPZNC of kaolinite was 2.16. The values of pHPZNPC were decreased with increasing c, which arises from the presence of structural negative charges of kaolinite. In addition, it was observed that a good linear relationship existed between pHPZNPC and 1g c. According to the values of PHPZNC and σst measured, the intrinsic surface reaction equilibrium constants, pK and pKa1^int and pKa2^int of 1-pK and 2-pK models could be directly calculated for clay, and the values of pK, pKa1^int and pKa2^int for kaolinite were 2.93, 1.90 and 3.97, respectively. These experimental values of pKa1^int and pKa2^int for kaolinite are obviously lower than those optimized with fitting programs in literatures, which maybe arises from the introduction of a type of permanent negatively charged sites in the models of literatures. An interesting result obtained in this study is that the inert electrolyte chemical binding does not exist for kaolinite, which also arises from the presence of structural negative charges.展开更多
