Summary of Test Method4.1 The test oil is mixed in a glass container with three otherliquids that are used to simulate engine conditions: (1)anoxidized/nitrated fuel component (Annex

10、 A2), (2) a mixture ofsoluble metal naphthenates (lead, copper, iron, manganese, andtin naphthenates (Annex A3), and (3) Type II reagent water.4.2 The glass container holding the oil mixture is placed ina high pressure reactor equipped with a pressure gauge. Thehigh pressure reactor is sealed, charg

11、ed with oxygen to apressure of 620 kPa (90 psig), and placed in an oil bath at160C at an angle of 30 from the horizontal. The high pressurereactor is rotated axially at a speed of 100 r/min forming a thinfilm of oil within the glass container resulting in a relativelylarge oil-oxygen contact area.NO

The period of timethat elapses between the time when the high pressure reactor isplaced in the oil bath and the time at which the pressure beginsto d

Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used to evaluate oxidation stabilityof lubricating base oils with additives in the presence ofchemistries similar to those found in ga

17、soline engine service.Test results on some ASTM reference oils have been found tocorrelate with sequence IIID engine test results in hours for a375 % viscosity increase.3The test does not constitute asubstitute for engine testing, which measures wear, oxidationstability, volatility, and deposit cont

18、rol characteristics of lubri-cants. Properly interpreted, the test may provide input on theoxidation stability of lubricants under simulated engine chem-istry.5.2 This test method is intended to be used as a benchscreening test and quality control tool for lubricating base oilmanufacturing, especial

19、ly for re-refined lubricating base oils.This test method is useful for quality control of oxidationstability of re-refined oils from batch to batch.5.3 This test method is useful for screening formulated oilsprior to engine tests. Within similar additive chemistry andbase oil types, the ranking of o

20、ils in this test appears to bepredictive of ranking in engine tests. When oils havingcompletely different additive chemistry or base oil type arecompared, oxidation stability results may not reflect the actualengine test result.5.4 Other oxidation stability test methods have demon-strated that solub

21、le metal catalyst supplies are very inconsistentand they have significant effects on the test results. Thus, fortest comparisons, the same source and same batch of metalnaphthenates shall be used.NOTE 2It is also recommended as a good research practice not to usedifferent batches of the fuel compone
