Summary of Test Method3.1 The sample of grease is oxidi

7、zed in a pressure vesselheated to 99C (210F) and filled with oxygen at 110 psi (758kPa). Pressure is observed and recorded at stated intervals. Thedegree of oxidation after a given period of time is determinedby the corresponding decrease in oxygen pressure.NOTE 1The pressure vessel has been referre

Significance and Use4.1 This test meth

10、od measures the net change in pressureresulting from consumption of oxygen by oxidation and gain inpressure due to formation of volatile oxidation by-products.This test method may be used for quality control to indicatebatch-to-batch uniformity. It predicts neither the stability ofgreases under dyna

11、mic service conditions, nor the stability ofgreases stored in containers for long periods, nor the stabilityof films of greases on bearings and motor-parts. It should notbe used to estimate the relative oxidation resistance of differentgrease types.5. Apparatus5.1 Oxidation Pressure Vessel, Sample D

17、 the following procedures: (1) Keep oil andgrease away from oxygen at high pressure. Keep oil and greaseaway from all regulators, gages and control equipment. (2) Useoxygen only with equipment conditioned for oxygen service bycareful cleaning to remove oil and grease from area in contactwith high pr

(5) Always use a pressure regulator todeliver oxygen. Release regulator tension before openingoxygen cylinder.

Preparation of Apparatus7.1 Clean the sample dishes from all contamination fromprevious runs and from dust settling from the air by washingthem with n-heptane and then with a cleaning solution. Followthe final cleaning operation by a thorough tap water rinse, adistilled water r

26、inse, and drying in an oven. Handle the cleandishes only with forceps. (WarningHandle in well-ventilated area, preferably in a hood. Keep away from heat,sparks, and open flame. Keep container closed when not inuse.) (WarningSee 6.3, and avoid skin contact, which maycause severe burns.)7.2 If lacquer

27、 is found after a run, clean the inside of theoxidation pressure vessel and the metal supports for thepressure vessel dishes by immersing in an appropriate solventcapable of removing the lacquer, such as gum solvent asspecified in Test Method D 525, and scrubbing with a bristlebrush followed by dryi

28、ng. Scrub further with water and a finescouring powder until all the lacquer deposits are removed.Follow the scouring operation by a thorough tap water rinse, adistilled water rinse, and drying in an oven. Handle the cleanmetal supports only with forceps.8. Procedure8.1 Fill each of the five dishes

29、with 4.00 6 0.01 g of grease.Distribute the samples in the dishes in a uniform layer with asmooth level upper surface. Place the filled dishes on the fivebottom shelves of the holder, leaving the top shelf to act as acover to prevent condensing volatile products from droppinginto the grease samples.

30、 When assembling the pressure vessel,place a small ball of glass wool in the bottom of the stem.8.2 Place the dish holder in the pressure vessel with asealing gasket in place, and close the pressure vessel bytightening the bolts slowly and uniformly. Clear the air fromthe pressure vessel by introduc

Bring the oxygen pressureto a value as shown in the following table:Room Temperature PressureC F psi kPa17 to 20 62 to 68 85 58620 to 23 68 to 74 86 59323 to 27 74 to 80 87 6

33、when thepressure vessel is placed in the bath in the following step, 8.3, andconsequently no release of oxygen will be required in most cases. Thisminimizes the chance of a leak developing at the valve after the overnightcheck for leaks has shown the pressure vessel to be satisfactory.8.3 Place the

34、pressure vessel in the oil bath maintained at atemperature of 99 6 0.5C (210 6 1.0F).

A gradual drop inpressure indicates a continuous leak in the pressure vessel.Observe and record the pressure at least every 24 h. In case aleak develops, do not report the results but repeat the test.8

36、.4 Start timing at the moment of immersion of the pressurevessel in the oil bath, and continue the oxidation for the timeperiod specified.NOTE 5Specifications are usually given in terms of pressure drop inpounds per square inch, or kilopascals at one or more time intervals, forinstance, after 100, 2
