Silicone transformer oils are typically used without additives due to their inherent stability and performance characteristics. However, in some cases, additives may be included to enhance specific properties:
Antioxidants: Prevent oxidative degradation, extending oil life.
Metal Deactivators: Inhibit catalytic effects of metal contaminants.
Corrosion Inhibitors: Protect transformer components from corrosion.
Antifoam Agents: Reduce foam formation during operation.
These additives help maintain the oil’s insulating and cooling effectiveness, ensuring consistent transformer performance.
