Hundreds of lubricant additives are available industry-wide to
improve base stock properties and protect metal surfaces; however,
the wrong combination of these commodities can result in
substandard performance. Surface Activity of Petroleum Derived
Lubricants explains how surface activity is affected by several
factors: the interfacial properties of lube oil base stocks at
oil/surface interfaces, lubricant solvency properties, additive
interactions, and variations in temperature. The book provides an
understanding of these factors that will influence proper selection
of base stocks and additives necessary for resisting foaming and
air entrainment, inhibiting rust and corrosion, preventing wear,
and controlling emulsification and demulsification. Using 300
tables to provide experimental data from books, journals, and the
patent literature, this practical and comprehensive reference
examines: the refining of lube oil base stocks the chemistry of
additives the formulation technology of lubricants the performance
of the most important finished products such as turbine oils,
hydraulic fluids, and engine oils Insight into these variables
enables petroleum chemists and engineers to choose the right
lubricant base stock and additive combination. By becoming aware of
these important elements, those in industry are better able to make
the right choices, leading to reduced costs, improved performance,
and better management of production timelines.
