Abstract

XPS and EDX were used to study CuxS deposition in Kraft insulating paper obtained from ageing paper samples in contact with a copper sheet, in mineral oil containing dibenzyl disulphide (DBDS). Qualitative and quantitative evidence of CuxS were obtained from bulk and surface analyses of insulating paper provided by the different depth resolution of the techniques used. The influence of [DBDS], oxygen, time, and Cu-paper contact upon the formation and mobilisation of CuxS were studied. A contact-based mechanism to explain CuxS contamination on paper and its displacement was proposed. The role of O2 in enhancing CuxS displacement was also investigated.
