The present invention pertains to triglyceride-based dielectric fluids having fatty acid compositions of between approximately 25% and approximately100% fatty acids comprising at least one carbon-carbon double bond, and wherein approximately 0-100% of the carbon-carbon double bonds are chemically modified. Further, the present invention pertains to the use of the dielectric triglyceride fluids in electrical and/or power applications, electrical and/or power apparatuses comprising the dielectric triglyceride fluids, as well as methods for preparing said fluids. Moreover, the present invention relates to chemically modified triglycerides for use in dielectric fluids. |
