Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of transformer oil detection, and in particular to a method for detecting the content of a rubber antioxidant in transformer oil. Background Art
[0002] Transformer oil is a liquid medium with cooling, arc extinguishing and insulating functions. The excellent performance of transformer oil is an important guarantee for the safe and stable operation of transformers. After large transformers are put into operation, their service life can reach 30 to 40 years. The internal structure of the transformer is complex and there are many types of materials, including transformer oil, copper wires, silicon steel sheets, insulating paper and cardboard, insulating paint and rubber sealing materials. These materials include metal materials, non-metallic materials, both organic small molecules and polymer materials. These materials are immersed in transformer oil for a long time, and under the influence of multiple factors such as electric field, magnetic field and temperature, various complex reactions occur, which have various effects on the performance of transformer oil.
[0003] Rubber sealing materials and rubber pads are indispensable materials inside the transformer. The antioxidants of rubber sealing materials are mainly aniline substances. In recent years, it has been found that the actual transformer oil has become smelly, the dielectric loss factor has increased, and the insulation performance of the transformer oil has decreased. Through a large number of separation and analysis tests, it was finally determined that it was due to the additives in the rubber sealing materials - antioxidants. The life of the transformer is as long as thirty or forty years. The rubber material is immersed in the transformer oil for a long time. The concentration of the antioxidant dissolved in the transformer oil is continuously enriched, resulting in a gradual increase in the impact on the insulation performance of the transformer oil. Therefore, monitoring the content of rubber antioxidants in transformer oil is of great significance to ensure the safe and stable operation of the transformer. Summary of the invention
[0004] The invention provides a method for detecting the content of rubber antioxidant in transformer oil, so as to improve the accuracy of detecting the content of rubber antioxidant in transformer oil.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a method for detecting the content of rubber antioxidant in transformer oil, comprising the following steps:
[0006] (1) adding n-hexane to a solid phase extraction column containing silica gel filler for activation, wherein the solid phase extraction column is a MEGA-BE-SI solid phase extraction column;
[0007] (2) Adding transformer oil sample into solid phase extraction column;
[0008] (3) eluting the solid phase extraction column with n-hexane;
[0009] (4) Turn on the vacuum pump to drain all the n-hexane on the solid phase extraction column;
[0010] (5) flushing the solid phase extraction column with a solvent, collecting the solvent flushing liquid, and using the solvent to adjust the volume to obtain the flushing liquid to obtain the test liquid, wherein the solvent is methanol and / or acetonitrile;
[0011] (6) Analyze the content of rubber antioxidant in the test liquid by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the solvent is acetonitrile and methanol in a volume ratio of 2:1.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the mass of the transformer oil sample is 2 times or less than the mass of the silica gel filler in the solid phase extractant.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the solid phase extraction column is a MEGA-BE-SI solid phase extraction column.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the rubber antioxidant is one or more of N-isopropyl-N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine, N-(1,4-dimethylpentyl)-N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine, and N-(1-methylheptyl)-N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine.
[0016] As a preferred embodiment, in step (6), the gas chromatography conditions are as follows: the column oven has a programmed temperature rising function, the starting temperature of the temperature rising program is 50-90°C, the starting holding time is 0 min, the heating rate is 10-20°C / min, the final temperature is 280°C, the final holding time is 2 min, and the helium flow rate is 0.8 mL / min-1.5 mL / min.
[0017] As a preferred embodiment, in step (6), the mass spectrometry conditions are as follows: the ion source is an electron impact source (EI) with an electron energy of 70 eV; the interface temperature is 270°C ± 0.5°C; the collection mode of the mass analyzer is the ion collection mode (SIM), and the quantitative ions are determined according to the specific type of the antioxidant.
[0018] As a preferred embodiment, in step (6), the liquid chromatography conditions are: using a C18 chromatographic separation column and a chromatographic workstation, a flow rate of 1 mL / min, an injection volume of 1 uL, a UV detector detection wavelength of 270 nm, and a mobile phase of methanol and water in a volume ratio of 1:1.
[0019] As a preferred embodiment, in step (3), solvent A with a volume of more than twice the volume of the transformer oil sample is used for elution.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] Transformer oil is a complex mixture of alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons. To detect rubber antioxidants, it is first necessary to separate them from the complex transformer oil bulk molecules. Failure to separate them will cause the chromatographic absorption peaks of low-concentration rubber antioxidants to be covered by high-concentration transformer oil bulk molecules, making them undetectable or inaccurately detected. The present application uses solid phase extraction to extract the rubber antioxidant in transformer oil, and uses a specific solvent to fix the rubber antioxidant in the transformer oil in the filler with a high probability, efficiently separates the rubber antioxidant from the transformer oil, and then quantitatively detects the separated rubber antioxidant components, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the rubber antioxidant in the transformer oil.
