Opis

This book discusses the refining of lube oil base stocks, chemistry of additives, the formulation technology of lubricants, and the performance of important finished products. It provides a thorough examination of base stocks, including its processing, oxidation stability, chemistry and performance of additives, and its interfacial properties. A dedicated chapter is given to the surface activity and performance of the most important finished products, such as turbine oil, hydraulic oil, and engine oil. The author analyzes the limits of lubricant testing, including its effects on water contamination and the necessary temperatures and stability for lubricant storage.
