Therefore,diagnostic methods for determining

4、 the condition of engines and other machinery can be important.This test method is intended to quantify, for the purpose of equipment monitoring, the concentrationof metals in used lubricating oils. Although the precision statement was determined by analyzing avariety of used oils this test method c

Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of additive elements, wear metals, and contaminants in used and unusedlubricating oils and base

6、 oils by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). The specific elements arelisted in Table 1.1.2 This test method covers the determination of selected elements, listed in Table 1, in re-refined and virgin base oils.1.3 For analysis of any element using wavelengths below 190

7、 nm, a vacuum or inert-gas optical path is required. Thedetermination of sodium and potassium is not possible on some instruments having a limited spectral range.1.4 This test method uses oil-soluble metals for calibration and does not purport to quantitatively determine insolubleparticulates.Analyt

8、ical results are particle size dependent, and low results are obtained for particles larger than a few micrometers.21.5 Elements present at concentrations above the upper limit of the calibration curves can be determined with additional,appropriate dilutions and with no degradation of precision.1.6

9、For elements other than calcium, sulfur, and zinc, the low limits listed in Table 2 and Table 3 were estimated to be ten timesthe repeatability standard deviation. For calcium, sulfur, and zinc, the low limits represent the lowest concentrations tested in theinterlaboratory study.1.7 The values stat

35、apid determination of 22 elements in used and unused lubricating oils and in base oils, and itprovides rapid screening of used oils for indications of wear. Test times approximate a few minutes per test specimen, anddetectability for most elements is in the low mg/kg range. In addition, this test me

36、thod covers a wide variety of metals in virginand re-refined base oils. Twenty-two elements can be determined rapidly, with test times approximating several minutes per testspecimen.5.2 When the predominant source of additive elements in used lubricating oils is the additive package, significant dif

37、ferencesbetween the concentrations of the additive elements and their respective specifications can indicate that the incorrect oil is beingused.The concentrations of wear metals can be indicative of abnormal wear if there are baseline concentration data for comparison.A marked increase in boron, so

38、dium, or potassium levels can be indicative of contamination as a result of coolant leakage in theequipment. This test method can be used to monitor equipment condition and define when corrective actions are needed.5.2.1 The significance of metal analysis in used lubricating oils is tabulated in Tab

39、le 4.5.3 The concentrations of metals in re-refined base oils can be indicative of the efficiency of the re-refining process. This testmethod can be used to determine if the base oil meets specifications with respect to metal content.6. Interferences6.1 SpectralCheck all spectral interferences expec

To apply interference corrections, allconcentrations must be within the previously established linear response range of each element listed in

41、 Table 1.(. (WarningCorrect profiling is important to reveal spectral interferences from high concentrations of additive elements on the spectral linesused for determining wear metals.)6.1.1 Spectral interferences can usually be avoided by judicious choice of analytical wavelengths. When spectral in

Details of the empirical method are given in Test Method C1109 and by Boumans.4 Thisempirical correction method cannot be

With any instrument, the analyst must always be alert to the possible presence ofunexpected elements producing interfering spectral lines.4 Boumans, P. W. J. M., “Corr
