What elements are in Thixatrol ST?
Thixatrol ST is a rheology modifier composed of a mixture of organic derivatives that includes castor oil and hydrogenated castor oil. These elements help to control the flow properties and thicken the formulation in various applications such as personal care products.
Why is oil an insulator?
no or very little The very same characteristics that makes it a good lubricant also makes it non-conductive. A good lubricant is not necisarily non-conductive. Soapy water is a good lubricant and is also a fair conductor of electricity. Engine oil does not conduct electricity because there are no charge carriers in it. A charge carrier is any chemical species with a net electric charge. Pure water is a very poor conductor of electricity. Dissolving salt in water produces ions (charged chemical species) which act as charge carriers. As a result, salt water is a much better electrical conductor than is pure water. In the case of motor oils, there are no charge carriers. Furthermore, salts are not soluble in oil so it isn't usually possible to add a charge carrier to increase the electrical conductivity. In metals, the "charge carriers" are electrons. A hunk of metal is essentialy a single molecule. Some of the metals electrons are not held tightly to an individual atom and can migrate through the metal under the influence of an electric field. In oil there are no loosely held electrons in the indvidual molecules, hence no possibility for the electrons to migrate within a molecule. Even if there were loosely held electrons within the molecules, there is no low energy mechanism to transfer mobile electrons between molecules. So, oil is non-conductive because it doesn't contain any charge carriers. Oil usually can not be made conductive by the addition of salts.
Is oil used to make electricity?
Electricity can be made from fossil oils ,like coal, lignite etc when it is burned it can produce electricity otherwise in some hydraulic systems the oils used in it can also produce electricity
How do you generate electricity from oil?
Three technologies are used to convert oil into electricity:Conventional steam - Oil is burned to heat water to create steam to generate electricity.Combustion turbine - Oil is burned under pressure to produce hot exhaust gases which spin a turbine to generate electricity.Combined-cycle technology - Oil is first combusted in a combustion turbine, using the heated exhaust gases to generate electricity. After these exhaust gases are recovered, they heat water in a boiler, creating steam to drive a second turbine.A:crude oil is minedcrude oil is sent to refineryrefined oil sent to power plantoil is burned, creating heatheat is used to boil watersteam created turns turbinesturbines turn generatorsmagnets in generators move free electrons in copper wireelectricity is distributed
Is electricity produced by burning greenhouse gases?
When coal and oil are burnt to generate electricity, they are converted almost entirely to greenhouse gases. When natural gas is burnt to generate electricity, some of it is converted to water and some is converted to carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. Because of this, natural gas is preferable as a fuel, compared to coal and oil. Generating electricity from wind, water flow (hydro-electricity), solar energy and hot rocks (geothermal electricity) emits no greenhouse gases.
Is mustard oil good conductor of electricity?
No
Is coconut oil a good conductor of electricity?
Yes
What is the good brand name of castor oil?
which brand is good of castor oil.
Does liquid conduct electricity well?
It depends on the liquid. Oil would not be a good conductor of electricity. Water is a good conductor, though distilled water is not. Any liquid metal or ionic compound would be a good conductor.
Will coconut oil can conduct electricity?
No, in general oils do not conduct electricity.
Is oil a conductor or insulator of electricity?
Oil is an insulator of electricity. It does not conduct electricity well due to its low conductivity properties.
Is oil a conductor?
No, oil is not a good conductor of electricity. It is considered an insulator due to its low electrical conductivity. Oil is often used to insulate electrical equipment and components to prevent electric shock and fire hazards.
Which liquid substance is an insulator of electricity?
One example of a liquid substance that is an insulator of electricity is purified water. Pure water does not conduct electricity well because it is a poor conductor of ions necessary for electrical conduction to occur. However, impurities in water can make it a better conductor of electricity.
Is there an expiration date for castor oil?
Castor oil can expire or become rancid. Good castor oil should be clear and odorless whereas expired oil may become cloudy and develop an unpleasant odor.
Is castor oil fish oil?
Castor oil is extracted from castor seeds
Is oil an conductor?
yes, in a word. It is just not as good of a conductor as other materials such as copper or gold, because it does not have the same atomic structure but it will still conduct electricity.
Is castor oil good for dry skin on cats?
Veterinarians have determined that castor oil is not good for cats. However, olive oil is a great alternative for treating dry skin on cats.
