Definitions
- the invention relates to high dielectric strength capability epoxy resins, utilizing epoxy chromium ionic bonding within chromium intercalated silicate material upon cure, to provide a high voltage epoxy resin matrix for the intercalated silicate.
- These resins can be used for a wide variety of insulation applications for generator stators and rotors.
- the high dielectric strength will allow its use as very thin insulation and permit low-cost dip coating or spraying procedures to be used.
- Mica a group of silicates, such as KAl 2 AlSi 3 O 10 (OH) 2 (muscovite) or KMg 3 AlSi 3 O 10 (OH) 2 (phlogopite), has been long been a key component of high voltage electrical insulation in electrical machines over 7 kV, because of its particularly high dielectric strength, low dielectric loss, high resistivity, excellent thermal stability and excellent corona resistance.
- mica is used in the form of flakes on a glass fabric backing, which provides mechanical -integrity required for machine wrapping of coils, as shown for example in U.S. Patent Specification Nos. 4,112,183 and 4,254,351 (Smith and Smith et al.), respectively.
- mica tape is wrapped around the coil and then impregnated with low viscosity liquid insulation resin by vacuum-pressure impregnation ("VPI"). That process consists of evacuating a chamber containing the coil in order to remove air and moisture trapped in the mica tape, then introducing the insulation resin under pressure to impregnate the mica tape completely with resin thus eliminating voids, producing resinous insulation in a mica matrix. This resin is subsequently cured by a prolonged heating cycle. In practice, complete elimination of voids is difficult, and the voids can be a recurring source of electrical and mechanical problems. And of course, the mica tape is thick, bulky, and difficult to apply to the coils.
- VPI vacuum-pressure impregnation
- voids can have significant consequences for both the electrical performance of the coil and its mechanical integrity. Electrically the voids can act as locations for partial discharges, which increase the electrical losses in the coil and can degrade the surrounding insulation during prolonged exposure. Mechanically the voids can be places where delamination can begin, causing potential disintegration of the coil.
- the problems associated with the VPI process are primarily the result of the several steps involved: (1) bake out of the coil, (2) evacuation, (3) impregnation, and (4) curing. Each step is time-consuming and must be carried out correctly in order to produce a finished coil which meets the electrical and mechanical requirements. The process time and scrap coils represent significant increased cost of the coil fabrication method.
- Drljaca et al. in "Intercalation of Montmorillonite with Individual Chromium (III) Hydrolytic Oligomers", Vol. 31, No. 23, 1992, pp. 4894-4897, taught chromium inserted/intercalated pillared clays as having sorptive and catalytic properties and possible substitutes 'for zeolites, that is, sodium or calcium aluminosilicates used for ion exchange water softening. Drljaca et al. further described, in "A New Method for Generating Chromium (III) Intercalated Clays, " Inorganica Chimica Acta, 256, 1997, pp. 151-154, Cr (III) dimer reaction with other dimer units to form planar sheets for intercalation into montmorillonite clays, Al 2 O 3 ⁇ 4SiO 2 ⁇ H 2 O
- Miller further describes the platelets as having a high "aspect ratio,” that is, high width compared to thickness, where molecular bonds are formed between the platelets and a polymer during compounding.
- the clay producers such as Nancor Inc. and AMCOL Intl., chemically stretch, that is, "open” the spacing between the platelets from about 4 Angstrom Units, about 0.0004 micrometer, to a thickness such that organic resin molecules can directly ionically or covalently attach to the platelet surface, allowing the platelet to directly react into the polymer structure during subsequent polymerization/compounding.
- the platelet bundles are also exfoliated into individual platelets by the clay producers to aid in polymerization/compounding.
- the molecular "tail” Miller states, has the chemical functionality to overcome the incompatibility between the hydrophilic (having an affinity for water) clay and the hydrophobic (water-repelling) organic polymer and enable them to directly form a molecular bond, that is, directly intercalate the polymer into the nanoclay.
- additional uses appear to be thermoplastic resin gas barrier packaging, microwavable containers, and epoxy resin circuit boards.
- the salt will have a phenol group (for phenolic resin), an epoxy group (for epoxy resin) and a polybutadiene group (for acrylonitrilebutadienerubber).
- phenol group for phenolic resin
- epoxy resin for epoxy resin
- polybutadiene group for acrylonitrilebutadienerubber.
- Yano and Usuki et al. of Toyota R&D in "Synthesis and Properties of Polyamide - Clay Hybrid", Journal of Polymer Science , Part A, Polymer Chemistry, Vol. 31, 1993, pp. 2493-2498, describe use of montmorillonite intercalated with an ammonium salt of dodecylamine as an aligned filler in a polyamide resin hybrid, for use as a gas barrier film.
- montmorillonite was mixed with hot water to disperse the sodium, which was then replaced with the ammonium salt of dodecylamine which then interacted with dimethylacetamide (“DMAC”) to "open” the platelets of montmorillonite.
- DMAC dimethylacetamide
- the intercalated montmorillonite was then simply dispersed into a polyamide matrix and cast as a film, where the montmorillonite oriented parallel to the film surface to provide barriers to gas permeation.
- an electrically conducting member insulated with a coating of a resin interactive with and bonded to an oligomer which contains a metal selected' from the group consisting of Cr, Sn, Zn and mixtures thereof, said oligomer disposed within an Al.Si.O containing structure, wherein said structure constitutes from about 3 wt.% to 35 wt% of the resin weight.
- the coating is from 0.1. cm to 0.3 cm thick, and is dip coated, sprayed or extruded onto a substrate such as a conductor, where the conductor can be metal coil for dynamoelectric machinery, such as 7 Kv or higher electrical generators.
- the invention also resides in a method of making a resinous coating suitable for use as an electrical insulation, comprising the steps of (a) providing an oligomer containing a metal selected from the group consisting of Cr, Sn, Zn and mixtures thereof; (b) providing a solid Al.Si.O based material having a platelet form and having spaces between their constituent platelets, which spaces are capable of being expanded; (c) providing a liquid resin selected from the group consisting of polyepoxide resins, styrenated polyepoxide resins, polyester.resins and 1, 2-polybutadiene resins, which resins can interact and polymerize in the presence of Cr, Sn, or Zn; (d) inserting the metal containing oligomer into the spaces within the solid Al.Si.O based material; and (e) causing the liquid resin and the solid metal inserted Al.Si.O based material to contact each other to form a resinous admixture such that the metal inserted Al.S

- Particularly useful resins are solventless polyepoxide (epoxy) resins, styrenated polyepoxide resins, polyester resins, and 1,2-polybutadiene resins, all of which can interact and-polymerize in the catalytic presence of Cr, Sn and Zn.
- the preferred Al.Si.O structure is montmorillonite and the preferred oligomer is a Cr(III) oligometer.
- the voltage endurance of these materials greater than 1000 hours at 7.5 kV/mm (188 volts/mil), and generally within the much higher range of 2800-3000 hrs. @ 188 volts/mil.
- the normal range of, for example, unfilled epoxy resin is 1000 hrs @ 188 volts/mil, thus the resins of this invention can be applied in thicknesses below 0.063 cm (0.025 inch) for voltages up to 35 kV.

- One type of resinous composition that can be used in this invention is obtainable by reacting epichlorohydrin with a dihydric phenol in an alkaline medium at about 50°C., using 1 to 2 or more moles of epichlorohydrin per mole of dihydric phenol. The heating is continued for several hours to effect the reaction, and the product is then washed free of salt and base.
- the product instead of being a single simple compound, is generally a complex mixture of glycidyl polyethers.
- the principal product may be represented by the chemical structural formula shown in FIG. 6, where n is an integer of the series 0, 1, 2, 3 . . ., and R represents the divalent hydrocarbon radical of the dihydric phenol.
- the dibalent hydrocarbon radical has a composition similar to that shown in FIG. 7A, to provide a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A type epoxide. It is noted that the dibalent hydrocarbon radical may also have a composition' similar to that shown in FIG. 7B, providing a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F type epoxide resin.
- the bisphenol epoxides used in the invention have a 1, 2-epoxy equivalency greater than one. They will generally be diepoxides.
- epoxy equivalency
- glycidylether resins that are useful in this invention include polyglycidyl ethers of a novolac prepared by reacting an epihalohydrin with an aldehyde, for example a phenol formaldehyde condensate.
- Cycloalyphatic type expoxides are also useful, as are glycidyl ester epoxy resins, both being non-glycidyl ether epoxides, all of which are well known in the art and described in detail by Smith et al, in U.S. Patent Specification No. 4,254,351, where epoxidized polybutadiene, also useful in this invention is described. All of these previously described resinous compositions will be hereafter defined and described as "polyepoxide resins”.
- polyester resins include polyesters, and 1-2, polybutadienes, all of which are well known in the art.
- polyester resins are a large group of synthetic resins, almost all produced by reaction of dibasic acids with dihydric alcohols. In a few cases trifunctional monomers such as glycerol or citric acid are used.
- polymers applies especially to the products made from unsaturated dibasic acids such as maleic acid.
- Unsaturated polyester resins can be further polymerized through cross linking. Often, another unsaturated monomer such as styrene is added during this second stage of the polymerization, which can occur at ordinary temperature with suitable' peroxide catalysts.
- maleic anhydride and fumaric acid are the usual unsaturated acid components, while phthalic anhydride, or adipic or azelaic acid are the corresponding saturated materials.
- Commonly used glycols are ethylene, propylene, diethylene, dipropylene, and certain butylene glycols.
- the added polymerizable monomer is styrene, vinyltoluene, diallyl phthalate or methyl methacrylate.
- unsaturated polyester resins there are other important types.
- alkyd resins are made from saturated acid and alcohol monomers with many types of modifications, usually the inclusion of an unsaturated fatty acid.
- butadiene is caused to polymerize' 1,2- so that the No. 1 carbon of each butadiene molecule becomes attached to the No. 2 carbon of another molecule.
- the main backbone of the resulting polymer contains only the No. 1 and No. 2 carbons, while all the No. 3 and No. 4 carbons are in vinyl side chains, as shown in FIG. 9, for example.
- These 1,2- polybutadienes exist in isotactic, syndiotactic and atactic forms, but cannot have cis and trans forms.
- Useful oligomers containing, a metal M, selected from the group consisting of Cr, Sn, Zn and their mixture can, for example, be of the dimer structure, as shown in FIG. 10.
- the reaction sequence useful to provide the insulated conducting member of this invention is shown generally in FIG. 4.
- An oligomer would be prepared containing Cr, Sn, Zn or their mixtures. This can be accomplished, generally, by the reaction of a strong acid (that is, Perchloric acid) with a metal salt [chromium nitrate, Tin chloride dehydrate, Zinc nitrate hydrate] in aqueous solution.
- a strong acid that is, Perchloric acid
- a metal salt chromium nitrate, Tin chloride dehydrate, Zinc nitrate hydrate
- One particularly useful Cr (III) oligomer is a Chromium (III) 2,4-pentanedionate having the composition indicated in FIG. 11. Additional reference is also made to FIG. 4, where oligomers of this type are indicated by the reference numeral 40.
- oligomers can, optimally, be, reacted with each other to form dimer chains in the form of planar sheets about 0.0004 to 0.0009 micrometers (4 to 9 Angstrom Units) thick. This is shown in FIG. 12, for example, and taught by Drljaca et al. in Inorganica Chimica Acta, 256 (1997) pp 151-154.
- a solid Al.Si.O based material having a platelet form and having spaces between their constituent platelets, capable of being expanded, such as an unmodified mica-type silicate is generally shown as 42 in Fig. 4.
- unmodified muscovite mica, phlogopite mica or clay type silicates such as montmorillonite, or their mixtures can be treated to expand or further '"open" spacing between constituent platelets, such material generally shown as 43, so that oligomers and organic resin molecules can intercalate into the mica or clay platelets, with the result shown in step (2).
- these mica or clay platelets can be chemically treated by contact with amines, onium salts, such as ammonium salts, or other chemicals added in amounts effective to expand the interlayer distance or sprang of the mica or clay and help to make those materials less hydrophilic and more hydrophobic so that the generally hydrophobic polymer materials can more easily interact with the mica or clay.
- step 2 the metal containing oligomer 40 is inserted or disposed within, that is, intercalated into opened Al.Si.O based material, as described previously in the Background, to provide structure 43', for example muscovite KAl 2 AlSi, 3 O 10 (OH) 2 , phlogopite KMg 3 AlSi 3 O 10 (OH) 2 or montmorillonite Al 2 O 3 .4SiO 2 ⁇ H 2 O.
- structure 43' for example muscovite KAl 2 AlSi, 3 O 10 (OH) 2 , phlogopite KMg 3 AlSi 3 O 10 (OH) 2 or montmorillonite Al 2 O 3 .4SiO 2 ⁇ H 2 O.
- This is carried out, in one method, by dissolving the metal containing oligomer in a suitable solvent, for example a ketone Chromium(III) 2,4-pentanedionate and then contacting the Al.Si.O 2 based material with the solution for an effective time, followed by drying.
- a suitable solvent for example a ketone Chromium(III) 2,4-pentanedionate
- the proportion of Al.Si.O 2 to resin in the metal-containing oligomer is from about 3 wt% to 35 wt%, preferably 5 wt% to 20 wt%. upon heating the resinous composition 44 will chain link to form polymers 46 around and within the Al.Si.O material 43 as shown in step (3) of FIG. 4.
- the mechanism responsible for protecting polymer materials from electrical breakdown can be described as follows. Mica is unique amongst materials in having a high resistance to partial discharges thereby increasing the voltage endurance and prolonging the life of insulation materials. It is now generally believed that the mechanism responsible for this protective behavior is electronic in nature and not physical. The high energy electrons resulting from partial discharges (sometimes referred to as "electron avalanches") are slowed down and deenergized by the strong positive fields generated by the arrays of K + ions held within the silicate lattice galleries. It is this effect which is apparently primarily responsible for the protective nature of mica in high voltage insulation systems.
- transition metal salt can be guided by considering the charge/size ratio.
- One mechanism by which mica is effective at scavenging free electrons is the presence of K + ions in the lattice galleries. These ions are typically held very tightly and are very effective scavengers of free electrons.
- transition metal ions typically have higher charge and smaller size, thus having a much higher charge/size ratio.
- Some examples are provided in the table shown in Figure 13. The concept is that replacing K + ions in these lattice galleries with metal ions gives insulation materials with even more effective partial discharge protection (and hence longer voltage endurance) than is found with mica. This is because the higher charge/radius ratio of these metal ions will give more efficient deenergizing of the fast electrons which are responsible for damaging insulation materials.
- the resulting composition can be applied to an electrical member, for example, a wire, or coil, an electronic component or the like.
- the insulating effect of the composition is extraordinary and will be such that it can be applied in cross-sections as thin as 0.06 cm.
- these new dielectric materials could be used in a high performance molding resin or be used as a replacement for advanced mica tapes for vacuum pressure impregnating resin manufacture.
- the ultimate pay-off would be the opportunity to drastically reduce their groundwall thicknesses dramatically beyond the present levels.
- an insulation system that is, 0.005 cm (0.002 inch) thickness, for generator coils could quite possibly be the outcome of this development.
- the very high dielectric capability of these materials would allow this extremely thin insulation layer to be used.
- the type of mica-type silicate used in this experiment was montmorrillonite silicate clay (Tradename "K-10") from the Aldrich Chemical Co. This material had the following characteristics: a free-flowing white powder, with a particle surface area of 220-270 m 2 /g and a bulk density of 300-370 g/l.
- the mixture was filtered and washed with fresh ethanol/water (50/50 v/v).
- the product was dried in air and then in a vacuum oven at 50°C for 10 hours, so that, at the end of that time, the silicate clay had a more open structure suitable for intercalation.
- the silicate was subsequently treated with Chromium (III) 2,4-pentanedionate having the chemical formula [C 5 H 7 O 2 ] 3 Cr, available from Aldrich Chemical Company. This reaction was carried out by dissolving the Chromium compound in methylethyl ketone and stirring at room temperature with the silicate for 2 hours.
- the resulting product was air-dried and then put in a vacuum oven at 50°C for 12 hours, to provide a Cr(3 + ) intercalated clay.
- Chromium intercalated clay was then suspended in a liquid polyepoxide vacuum pressure impregnating resin, made according to the teachings of U.S. Patent 4,254,351, and cast into 10.2 cm diam. cake samples. These samples were gelled for 2 hours at 135°C, and then heated for 16 hours at 150°C until they were fully cured. Typically, the Chromium intercalated silicate was added at level of 10% (by weight) to the epoxy resin. Control samples of the polyepoxide resin alone were also cast into 10.2 cm diam cakes and cured as above.
- Example 1 In addition to the long-term voltage endurance tests, described in Example 1, there are other important tests to be used in the evaluation of high voltage electrical insulation.
- One such test is the short-time Dielectric Strength measurement (ASTM D-149) which involves the placement of cured samples of resin (typically about 110 mils in thickness) between two electrodes under oil. The applied voltage is increased from zero to breakdown in a uniform, specified rate from 0.5 to 1.0 kV per second. Typically for electrical insulation of the thicknesses specified above, the voltage will exceed 35 kV before breakdown will occur. The dielectric strength voltage breakdown value is then calculated from the voltage at breakdown divided by the sample thickness (Volts/mil).
