Abstract

This chapter deals with the basics and chemistry of natural esters and their applications as a liquid insulator. This chapter also describes the refining and processing techniques of various vegetable oil-based natural esters. This chapter also includes detailed discussion of vegetable esters of different origin and their suitability as a liquid insulator. The historical evolution of vegetable esters as transformer insulating fluid was elaborately presented in this chapter. This chapter also distinguishes the natural esters and mineral oils as a liquid insulator. This also gives detailed discussion on current research scenario of vegetable oil-based ester fluids for the power sector.
