SPECIFICATIONS: Foaming

What is foaming? Foaming assesses the degree of foam formation and destruction in oil. In liquids (hydraulic oils, engines), the air exposure range typically contains 8-9% dissolved air. When oil is in the air and foaming, it will increase the oxidation of the lubricant, increase the flow of oil and cavitation will appear. Most of […]

SPECIFICATIONS: Metal content and water content

Metal content: Additives in lubricant production include substances such as detergents, dispersants, antioxidants, abrasive agents, etc. Many additives contain one or more metallic elements. determined in this method. The amount of water, water content: Water destroys oil Rusting metal parts Water accelerates oxidation Water contaminates oil Maximum water content of 0.05% V

SPECIFICATIONS: Corrosion copper plate

– Used to assess the ability of oil to corrosive to corrosive metals. – The sulfur compounds in oil will cause corrosion of many different metals. – Corrosion is defined as an oxidation on metal surfaces causing metal loss or accumulation of deposits. – Hydraulic oil, aviation oil, metal cutting oil, especially transformer oil and […]
