In the realm of electronic components, the selection of appropriate insulating materials is critical for optimal performance and reliability. Among these materials, dielectric fluids play a pivotal role, especially in capacitors. Ningbo Inno Pharmchem Co., Ltd., a trusted supplier of specialty chemicals, highlights the significant advantages of using low viscosity insulating oil, specifically Phenyl Xylyl Ethane (PXE) oil, in capacitor applications.

The viscosity of an insulating oil refers to its resistance to flow. For capacitor impregnation, a lower viscosity offers several distinct benefits that directly impact manufacturing efficiency and product quality. When it comes to PXE oil, its naturally low viscosity makes it an exceptionally effective impregnating agent. Why is this important?

  • Enhanced Penetration: Low viscosity allows the oil to penetrate deep into the fine structures of the dielectric material, such as the paper and polymer films used in capacitors. This thorough impregnation ensures that all air voids are filled, maximizing the dielectric strength and preventing partial discharges that can lead to premature failure. This is a key reason why manufacturers choose to buy PXE insulating oil for their high-quality capacitors.
  • Faster Impregnation Times: A less viscous fluid flows more readily, significantly reducing the time required for the impregnation process. This can lead to increased manufacturing throughput and reduced production costs. For capacitor manufacturers, optimizing cycle times is often a major goal.
  • Lower Processing Temperatures: In some cases, lower viscosity oils may require less heat to achieve adequate flow and penetration, potentially reducing energy consumption during the manufacturing process.
  • Uniform Distribution: The easy flow of low viscosity PXE oil helps ensure a more uniform distribution throughout the capacitor's dielectric assembly, leading to more consistent performance characteristics across the product batch.

As a specialized chemical manufacturer in China, Ningbo Inno Pharmchem Co., Ltd. understands these processing advantages. Our Phenyl Xylyl Ethane insulating oil is carefully formulated to meet stringent viscosity requirements, ensuring it performs optimally in a wide range of capacitor designs. We provide detailed technical data, including kinetic viscosity at 40°C (typically ≤7.0 mm²/s), to allow engineers to precisely integrate our product into their manufacturing workflows.

The combination of superior dielectric properties, excellent compatibility with polypropylene film, and crucially, its advantageous low viscosity, makes PXE oil a standout choice for modern capacitor technology. By choosing PXE oil as their impregnating agent, manufacturers can achieve higher performance, greater reliability, and more efficient production. Ningbo Inno Pharmchem Co., Ltd. is committed to being a dependable supplier of this critical chemical, supporting the continuous innovation within the electronics industry.
