Hardening of tung oil by anhydrous ferric chloride solution

摘要

Tung oil mixed with anhydrous ferric chloride solution is a very desirable filling compound for many applications because it will gel at room temperatures in a comparatively short time. The data presented here give some information regarding the insulation resistance of tung oil hardened by anhydrous ferric chloride and answer some of the questions which have arisen in connection with the practical application of this compound.
