It appeared to be of interest to evaluate the depressant efficiency of additives on the basis of results obtained in studying electrophoretic and dielectric properties of wax-containing systems when these additives are present. The electrical properties of dispersion of a petroleum paraffin wax (mp 56/sup 0/C) in n-heptane were investigated in the presence of the commercial pour depressants PMD D (specification TU 01-270-68) (a polymethyacrylate) and AzNII (GOST (All-Union State Standard) 8443-57) (condensation product from chlorinated wax and naphthalene), and two ester-type additives synthesized in the laboratory: TyumII 79, which is bis(diacylpentarythritol 4-nitrophthalate) and TyumII 222, which is bis(diacylpentarythritol succinate). The pour depressants TyumII 79 and TyumII 222 are products obtained by condensation of C/sub 21/-C/sub 26/ synthetic fatty acids, pentaerythritol, and a dicarboxylic acid (4-nitrophthalic acid or succinic acid), with component ratio 2.1:1:1 and 2.1:1:0.55, respectively.
