Abstract: A composition is disclosed of a solution of a resinous carrier and at least two compounds which thermoparticulate at different temperatures between 60.degree. and 200.degree. C. A coating is made by applying the composition to a portion of an electrical apparatus exposed to a gas stream. As the temperature of the coating increases the compound therein thermoparticulate. The time between which the compounds thermoparticulate indicates the rate of rise of the temperature and analysis of the products of thermoparticulation indicates the location of the coating in the electrical apparatus. Alternatively, the coating can consist of several layers with a thermoparticulating compound in each layer which thermoparticulates at different temperatures.

Abstract: Electrical apparatus cooled with a stream of hydrogen gas is protected from overheating by applying a coating to a portion of the apparatus which is exposed to the gas stream. The coating contains a compound which decomposes between 80.degree. and 200.degree. C. to produce a gas detectable by a monitor. The monitor detects gases heavier than hydrogen in the gas stream and sounds an alarm when they are present.

Abstract: Stereo-regular polymers are produced by forming a moving stream of gaseous monomer having an electric dipole moment, irradiating the monomer with monochromatic light of a wavelength suitable for activating it, and orientating the activated monomer in an electric field. The activated, oriented monomer then polymerizes to form a stereo-regular polymer.Alternatively, a monomer of the general formula ##STR1## can be used, where at least one of the R groups, the resonating R group, forms an electric dipole moment with the remainder of the monomer. The monomer is then irradiated with a monochromatic light beam having a frequency which resonates with a harmonic frequency resulting from the bond between the resonating R group and the remainder of the monomer. Activation of that particular bond on that particular type of monomer results in a stereo-regular polymer.For best results, however, the two methods are combined.

Abstract: An on-line apparatus and method of using particulography as a technique for detecting and locating overheated material such as insulation within a gas-cooled dynamoelectric machine is disclosed. This technique detects the presence of and identifies the origin of thermoparticulates in a gas stream which are produced by thermal degradation of materials. The gas cooling system is continuously monitored by a gas stream monitor and upon the detection of thermoparticulates in the gas stream, the gas stream is diverted through a particulate collection chamber for entrapment of a sample of the thermoparticulates. The sample is then isolated from the gas cooling system and a flow of clean gas is forced through the sample while the collection chamber is heated at a predetermined rate. Heating the collection chamber will cause reparticulation of the thermoparticulates which are carried to a gas stream monitor located downstream by the flowing gas.
