It has been a few years since the publication of the first edition of Spectro Scientific’s In-Service Oil Analysis Handbook. Our original goal was to compile a comprehensive reference book of common in-service oil analysis techniques to help readers understand and choose the right technique and instrumentation for their needs. We had to limit the scope in the first two editions because of the amount of effort needed to cover all the topics. In-service oil analysis for condition based maintenance covers a wide array of topics. I am pleased to say that in this third edition, we are much closer to our goal. We reorganized the structure of the content for better clarity and we added articles to cover more topics and instruments associated with oil analysis. Also, we rewrote several articles including the latest developments on the market. As we learned more from our customers about their successes using on site oil analysis, we developed case studies that you can find in this edition. This work is not possible without the time and effort from the contributing authors: Patrick Henning, Daniel Walsh, Robert Yurko, Ken Caldwell, Thomas Barraclough, Maria Bartus, Randi Price, John Morgan, Aifeng Shi and Yuegang Zhao from Spectro Scientific and Ray Garvey from Emerson Process Management.

  • OIL and Your Engine
    OIL and your engine Foreword Bearing failure, piston ring sticking, and excessive oil consumption are classic symptoms of oil-related engine failure. How do you avoid them? There are numerous ways, three of the most important being Scheduled Oil Sampling (S·O·S SM), regular maintenance of the lubrication system, and the use of correct lubricants. Following these recommendations can mean the difference between experiencing repeated oil related engine failure and benefiting from a productive and satisfactory engine life. This booklet attempts to tell the story of oil: what it is composed of and what its functions are, how to identify its contamination and degradation, typical consequences, and some preventive measures to help you protect your engine against the devastating effects of oil related engine failure. Understanding Oil Function Engine oil performs several basic functions in order to provide adequate lubrication. It works to keep the engine clean and free from rust and corrosion. It acts as a coolant and sealant; and it provides an oil film cushion that keeps metal-to- metal contact to a minimum, thereby reducing friction and wear. But these are only the basic functions of oil. It is the particular demands of a given application and the special conditions under which an oil is used that largely determine the numerous additional functions oil must perform. These additional functions make choosing the correct oil for the job vital. The selection of a suitable lubricating oil should be based on the engine performance requirements as specified by the manufacturer, as well as the application and the quality of the available fuel.

Ahmed, Rabab M. Nasser* Department of Petroleum Applications, Egyptian Petroleum Research Institute. Correspondence to: Rabab M. Nasser (E-mail: [email protected]) Received January 12, 2015, Accepted March 30, 2015 Abstract Jojoba homopolymer was prepared, elucidated, and evaluated as lube oil additive, then novel six co- polymers were prepared via reaction of jojoba oil as a monomer with different alkylacrylate, (dodecyl- acrylate, tetradecyacrylate, and hexadecyacrylate), and with different α – olefins (1-dodecene, 1-tetra- decene, and 1-hexadecene), separately with (1:2) molar ratio. The prepared polymers were elucidated using Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR) and Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC), for determination of weight average molecular weight (Mw), and the thermal stability of the prepared poly- mers was determined. The prepared polymers were evaluated as viscosity index improvers and pour point depressants for lubricating oil. It was found that the viscosity index increases with increasing the alkyl chain length of both α- olefins, and acrylate monomers, while the pour point improved for additives based on alkyl acrylate. Keywords: Lubricating oil additives; viscosity modifiers; pour point depressants; jojoba – acrylate copolymers; jojoba- α olefins copolymers; TGA and DSC analysis. 1. Introduction Lubricants and lubrication were inherent in a machine ever since man invented machines. It was water and natural esters like vegetable oils and animal fats that were used during the early era of machines. During the late 1800s, the development of the petrochemical industry put aside the application of natural lubricants for reasons including its stability and economics [1].

  • Lubricant Additives: What Degree Are They Removed by Filtration Systems?
    FEATURE ARTICLE Dr. Neil Canter / Contributing Editor Lubricant additives: What degree are they removed by filtration systems? Several factors indicate that additive removal by filters is nonexistent in properly maintained lubricant systems. LUBRICANT MANUFACTURERS FACE EXTENSIVE CHALLENGES in formulating prod- ucts for their end-user customers. Several articles have been published in TLT discussing many techniques for helping lubricant companies and end-users achieve superior performance for their lubricants and production machines. One issue that has not received much attention is concern about whether filters are involved in removing additives from lubricants. There is no ques- tion that the role of filtration equipment in maintaining lubricant systems is crucial. In the November TLT, an article based on a Webinar presentation sponsored by STLE University reviewed the fundamentals of filtration.1 (avail- able digitally at www.stle.org.) Filters serve the purpose of removing contaminants from lubricant sys- tems that, if left, can significantly reduce operating life and affect the perfor- mance of production machines. The particles trapped from filters can range in size from 40 microns down to the 6-10 micron range. This latter range is the focus for most filters. Concern has been raised in the lubricant industry on an anecdotal basis that filters might also remove additives from lubricants as they remove con- taminants. Such a scenario could reduce the effectiveness of the lubricant and 26 • DECEMBER 2013 TRIBOLOGY & LUBRICATION TECHNOLOGY WWW.STLE.ORG adversely impact its application.

    PRO-SPEC® D. D. MOTOR OIL PRO-SPEC® D. D. MOTOR OIL meets or exceeds API CF-2 and provides an enhanced level of lubricant performance over the CD-II category for two-stroke cycle engines (Detroit Diesel Series 53, 71, 92, and 149). Single grade oils having less than 1% sulfated ash are preferred and primarily recommended for new Detroit Diesel design changes. Sulfated ash is related to the oil's additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which may cause valve distress under certain operating conditions. Most of the sulfated ash is related to total base number which measures an oil's alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid. As TBN increases, sulfated ash also increases to where lubricants with TBN's above 10 will likely have sulfated ash contents above 1.0%. It should be understood the use of PRO-SPEC® D. D. MOTOR OIL is with fuel with less than 0.5% sulphur. For fuels with higher sulphur content, use PRO-SPEC® SAE 40 with a TBN of 15. The higher TBN is necessary to offset the harmful effects of acids formed during the burning of high sulphur fuels. High Total Base Numbers are important to control deposits in four-stroke cycle diesel engines and to neutralize the effects of high sulphur fuel in all diesel engines. For two-stroke cycle engines, Detroit Diesel recommends lubricants with a sulfated ash content of 1.0% or less and TBN's between 6 and 10 for engines operating on less than 0.5% sulphur fuel. Starting in 1994, diesel fuel for U.S.
