Abstract
The electrical conduction of purified aromatic liquids in the tip-plane electrode geometry was studied for high electric fields. The current voltage curves, the current pulses were measured for dc applied voltage in toluene, benzyltoluene, and in the saturated hydrocarbon ndecane. In n-decane, current pulses are similar to corona discharges in electronegative gases and to pulses previously studied in liquid cyclohexane. In aromatic liquids, a discontinuity in the current-voltage curve was also observed for an electric field of 4.5±0.5 MV.cm -1 whereas current pulses were detected for higher fields. This behavior is attributed to the ionization and electronic attachment of aromatic molecules
