3、easuring leakage from lubricating grease (commonly known as thecone bleed test) uses the same equipment as the obsolete, withdrawn Federal FED-STD-791C (FederalTest Method (FTM) 791C791C) Method 321.3, Oil Separation from Lubricating Grease (StaticTechnique). Despite the lack of a precision statemen

4、t, Method 321.3 was used for many years inspecifications to evaluate the tendencies of base fluid separation from military and industrial greases.Test Method D6184 supersedes the FTM method by overcoming deficiencies of Method 321.3. Itincludes the procedures and precision determinations resultant f

5、rom a cooperative study conducted byparticipating members of Subcommittee D02.G0 of Committee D02.D02.G0.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the tendency of lubricating grease to separate oil at an elevated temperature.This test method shall be conducted at 100 C for 30 h unles

6、s other conditions are required by the grease specification.1.2 This test method is suitable for use with most all greases, but the test precision was established using greases having canbe used on any grease with a worked penetration (Test Methods D217) greater than 220220 mm10 (NLGI No. 3 grade) a

7、nd lessthan 340Consistency Number 3 or softer). However, no precision data exists for greases with a penetration greater than 340 mm(NLGI No. 1 grade).10 (softer than NLGI Consistency Number 1).1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 lubricating grease, na semifluid to solid product of a dispersion of a thickener in a liquid lubricant.3.1.1.1 DiscussionThe dispersion of the thickener forms a two-phase system and immobilizes the liquid lubricant by su

18、rface tension and otherphysical forces. Other ingredients imparting special properties are often included.

19、ely divided particles dispersed in a liquid lubricant toform the products structure.3.1.3.1 DiscussionThe thickener can be fibers (such as various metallic soaps) or plates or spheres (such as certain non-soap thickeners) which areinsoluble or, at most, only very slightly soluble in the liquid lubri

20、cant. The general requirements are that the solid particles beextremely small, uniformly dispersed, and capable of forming a relatively stable, gel-like structure with the liquid lubricant D2174. Summary of Test Method4.1 The weighed sample is placed in a cone-shaped, wire-cloth sieve, suspended in

21、a beaker, then heated under static conditionsfor the specified time and temperature. Unless otherwise required by the grease specification, the sample is tested at standardconditions of 100 C 6 0.5 C for 30 h 6 0.25 h. The separated oil is weighed and reported as a percentage of the mass of thestart

22、ing test sample.5. Significance and Use5.1 When lubricating grease separates oil, the residual material may change in consistency, which can affect the ability of theproduct to function as designed. Test results obtained with this procedure are not intended to predict oil separation tendencies ofgre

23、ase under dynamic service conditions.5.2 This test method is used for specifications and quality control.6. Apparatus6.1 Test ApparatusThe assembled apparatus consists of a cone-shaped sieve constructed of 60 mesh, corrosion-resistant wirecloth, a 200 mL tall-form beaker without spout, and a closely

24、 fitting cover with a hook in the center. Construction details anddimensions are shown in Fig. 1.6.1.1 The conical sieve shall be fabricated of stainless steel, monel, or nickel wire cloth, of No. 60 medium-heavy mesh asdefined in Table 2 of Specification E437 and shall be fabricated to the dimensio

25、ns and requirements shown in Fig. 1.NOTE 1Sieves of stapled or wire-bound construction, instead of silver-soldered construction, have been used in the past. Such sieves do not conformto this test method.6.2 Oven, capable of maintaining the specified temperature, 100 C 6 0.5 C.6.3 Balance, having a m

26、inimum capacity of 250 g and a sensitivity of at least 0.01 g.7. Sampling7.1 Examine the sample for any indication of non-homogeneity such as oil separation, phase changes, or gross contamination.If any abnormal conditions are found, obtain a new sample.7.2 The sample submitted for analysis should b

27、e minimally sufficient for duplicate testing.7.3 Although the mass of the test grease is determined, the sieve is filled by volume rather than mass. Each test will require aquantity sufficient to fill the sieve to approximately the same level as indicated in Fig. 1 (about 10 mL). Approximately the s

28、amevolume shall be used for each test regardless of the grease density; the mass will range from about 8 g to 12 g.4 Available from Standardization Documents Order Desk, Bldg. 4 Section D, 700 Robbins Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19111-5094, Attn: NPODS.online at ASSIST QuickSearch (http:/quicksearch.dla.
