The influence of paraffinic base oil on the performance of naphthenic base oil was investigated by studying the low-temperature viscosity of tested oils. The viscosity of lube oils increased with an increasing content of high-viscosity paraffinic base oil in the oil mixture. And the low-temperature viscosity was less influenced when the content of paraffinic base oil in the mixture was insignificant. In order to reduce the cost for formulating lubricating oil, a small fraction of paraffinic base oil can be added into naphthenic base oil as far as the property of lubricating oil can meet the specification. According to the study on low-temperature viscosity of the oil mixed with paraffinic base oil and naphthenic base oil, a basic rule was worked out for the preparation of qualified lubricating oils.展开更多

The results of commercial application of the catalyst have revealed that the catalyst after pretreatment including drying, sulfidation and reduction can process VGO into base oils meeting the HVI II and HVI II+ standards, and can manufacture base oils meeting the HVI III standard after incorporating the filtrate oil or gatch from acetone-benzene solvent dewaxing unit. The nitrogen content of the feed oil to the IDW reactor should be controlled at 1.0—1.5 ppm, while the CO and CO2 contents in fresh hydrogen is strictly controlled to avoid poisoning of the IDW-HDF catalysts.展开更多

The effects of the chain length of side chain groups on the viscosity, acid value, low temperature fluidity, thermo-oxidative stability, tribological properties and surface tension of diester derivatives were investigated. The results showed that increasing the chain length of side chain groups had a positive influence on the viscosity, viscosity index, acid value, pour point, friction coefficient and wear scar diameter along with a negative influence on the oxidation onset temperature, volatile loss, insoluble deposit, maximum non-seizure load and surface tension. These diester derivatives exhibited improved physicochemical and tribological properties that make themselves promising environmentally friendly biolubricant basestocks.展开更多

The product was characterized by FTIR, elemental analysis, thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Four-ball tests showed that the addition of a certain concentration of the additive to rapeseed oil could effectively increase both the load-carrying capacity (PB value), resistance to wear, and friction-reducing abilities. SEM observations confirmed that the additive could result in a reduced diameter of the wear scar.展开更多

Natural zeolite from Klaten was activated using hydrothermal treatment at temperature 500 ℃ for 6 h (produced ZAAHd), the ZA sample was treated with hydrothermal followed by Microwave (produced ZAAHdM), the ZA sample was treated with HCI 3 N at temperature of 90 ℃ for 30 min (produced ZAAH), the ZAAH sample was heated in to microwave (produced ZAAHM), the ZAAHM was treated hydrothermal (produced ZAAHMHd), the ZAAHMHd sample was heated in to microwave (produced ZAAHMHdM), soaking of natural zeolit activated by HCl-microwave-hydrothermal-microwave in NH4NO3 1 N which was stirred using stirer at room temperature for 24 h (produced ZAAHMHdMN) and the ZAAHMHdMN sample was heated into microwave (ZAAHMHdMNM). The heating process by microwave was conducted at 550 watt for 15 rain. Catalyst characterization involved determination of the number of total acid sites using gravimetric method with vapour adsorption of NH3 and pyridine, catalyst crystallinity by XRD (X-ray diffraction) and TO4 (T= Si and AI) site by infra red spectrophotometer (IR). Hydrocracking of waste lubricants oil was performed in a fixed bed reactor of stainless steel at temperature of 450 ℃, H2 flow rate of 15 mL/min., feed/catalyst ratio of 5. Liquid products of the hydrocracking were analyzed using GC (gas chromatography). The characterization results showed that various modification of natural zeolite increased acidity and dealumination degree of the catalysts. Products of the hydrocracking were liquid, coke, and gas fractions. Liquid products consisted of gasoline fraction (C5-C12), diesel fraction (C12-C20), and heavy oil fraction (〉 C20).Thc conversion of liquid products was increased with the increase of catalyst acidity. The greatest liquid product conversion was produced by the ZAAHMHdMNM catalyst, i.e., 56.80%, with selectivity towards gasoline, diesel, and heavy oil fractions was 88.37%, 8.61% and 3.02%, respectively. The increase of catalyst acidity increased the selectivity of gasoline fraction.展开更多

So...For environmental protection, energy conservation, and other reasons, water-based lubricants are increasingly chosen to replace oil lubricants. Water-based lubricants are divided into emulsified and solution types. Solution type water-based lubricants have attracted significant attention for the good stability, easy biodegradability, and safety for workers. However, some problems exist with current solution type water-based lubricants, such as poor lubricity and corrosion resistance. During the cold-rolling process, A1 plate rolled using oil-based lubricant lubrication shows metallic luster, but that rolled using water-based lubricant shows corrosion spots, black strips, and no metallic luster. Therefore, this study mainly analyzed the reasons for the darkness of A1 plate cold-rolled with water solution lubricants. The differences in plate surfaces lubricated by water solution and oil were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, auger electron spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The analysis results showed that the surface of the oil-lubricated sample is smooth, the oxygen content is low, and the oxide layer is thin, while the surface of the water solution-lubricated sample is rough, the oxygen content is high, the chemical composition is more complex, and the oxide layer is not uniform and thick.展开更多
