What happens if the oil goes bad？

If the oil in use is broken, the following changes will occur:

1) Appearance change: the color becomes darker and mixed, resulting in emulsification, with obvious abrasive particles, mechanical impurities and oil sludge.

2) Viscosity change: the viscosity of oil containing viscosity index improver decreases due to mechanical shear, while the viscosity increases due to oil oxidation and emulsified sludge.

3) Acid value change: in oil products containing high acid value additives, the decrease of acid value at the initial stage of use indicates that after the consumption of additives, the increase of acid value at the later stage is the result of oxidation to produce acid products.

4) Moisture increase: the anti emulsification performance becomes poor, extreme pressure agent hydrolysis affects lubrication, and tooth surface pitting and gluing may occur.

5) Benzene and pentane (petroleum ether) insoluble matter increase: This is the result of oxidation products, metal chips, dust and other pollution of oil products at high temperature during long-term use.

In order to deal with the changes of pollutants in the oil and restore the oil to the new oil index, it is necessary to use the vacuum oil purifier. Ty-r series vacuum oil purifier is aimed at the purification of industrial lubricating oil. The equipment can improve the cleanliness, color, viscosity and other indexes of the oil, so that the oil can continue to be reused, which is environmentally friendly and cost controlled.
