Abstract
The electrical breakdown of low and high-molecular-weight hydrocarbon gases and vapors as a function of the number of hydrogen (H) atoms replaced by chlorine (Cl) and fluorine (F) is discussed in this paper. The relationship between electrical breakdown and the number of Cl and F atoms attached to the ring of trifluoromethylbenzene is given. The electrical breakdowns of cyclohexyl and aromatic ring compounds are compared. The variation of electrical breakdown with the number of trifluoromethyl groups attached to cyclohexyl and aromatic rings, and also the effect of the molecular weight on the electrical breakdown of straightchain and cyclic compounds are shown.Keywords
