Present-day lubricant demand is for maximum oxidation stability, superior low-temperature performance, low volatility, and improved additive response, which are difficult to achieve through conventional processing. Conventional solvent lubricant refining produces base oils with a viscosity index (VI) of ...
Oils and Aftermarket Fuel Additives product strategy for the globe. Dave will interface with technology, business colleagues, and customers in support of Consumer Brands. Dave has a Ph. D. in Chemistry, patents on lubricant composition and manufacture, and exte...
Automotive manufacturers and lubricant producers have used Groups I to V base oils depending on the application. Demanding applications, like high temperature performance in turbochargers, extreme cold temperature climates, long drain intervals, or even stop and go traffic conditions require a higher leve...
But base oils are only the part of the story. Lubricant makers must also consider the impact of additives because the engine performance is dependent on how the combination of base oils and additives work together. Tags: Engine Oil , Automotive Trends ,...
If you can, test several lubes out on the back of your hands. Look for a formula that is not sticky or greasy, and does not evaporate quickly. You want something that feels smooth and hydrating on your skin. Make sure you check the ingredients list when choosing a lubricant. Oil-based...
On September 1, 2000, the Stoke-on-Trent City Council in the United Kingdom confirmed that tests on a can of baby food revealed a toxic substance. The investigations indicated that a can of Heinz Cheesy Parsnip and Potato Bake was contaminated with mineral oil lubricant, possibly from a mach...
The base oil and additive package are the major components in grease formulations, and as such, exert considerable influence on the behavior of the grease. The thickener is often referred to as a sponge that holds the lubricant (base oil plus additives). By adding the proper grease to your ...
The most common industrial lubricants primarily consist of a base oil and are either mineral-based, synthetic, or vegetable-based. Additives are also added to the base oil to optimize the properties of the lubricant. Another form of lubricant, grease, is made by combining a base oil with a ...
Understanding the tribological basics is essential to extending the service life of machine elements and lubricants. For this purpose, it is necessary to study the micro-/nanotribological interactions between the lubricant and the macro-... SB Wiendl,WR Zabel,G Poll,... - 《Tribology》 被引量...
