• To get knowledge about lubricants and additives
• To know types of lubricant
What is lubricant?
Properties of lubrication
Basic Lubricant Knowledge
Classification of lubricants
Additives
What is lubricant?
• The substances which are used to decrease the force of
friction between the moving parts of machine in contact
• All liquids will provide lubrication to a degree
• There are two main groups, oil lubricants and grease
lubricants
Basic Lubricant Knowledge
Properties of lubricant
• Viscosity
• Viscosity Index
• Pour Point
• Flash Point
• Consistency or penetration number (Grease)
• Dropping Point (Grease)
• Structural Stability
Basic Lubricant Knowledge
Viscosity
• One of the main properties of any oil lubricant
• Is the measure of a lubricant’s resistant to flow
• Measured by petroleum industry in centistokes,
which numerically equal to mm2/s
• First consideration in selecting lubricant oil for
specific applications
Properties of lubricant
ViscosityProperties of lubricant
Operation condition VS viscosity needed
• Higher load requires high viscosity
• Higher temperature requires higher
viscosity
• Increased speed requires lower viscosity
Viscosity index
• The property of resisting changes in viscosity due to changes
in temperature
• The higher the VI number of oil, the less tendency for its
viscosity to change with the changes in temperature
Properties of lubricant
Pour Point
• The lowest temperature at which the oil will flow
Properties of lubricant
Flash Point
• Minimum temperature at which sufficient liquid is vaporized
to create a mixture of fuel and air that will burn if exposed
to a source of spark
Properties of lubricant
Consistency or penetration number (grease)
• Is defined as its resistibility to deformation under an applied
force, in other words its relative stiffness or hardness
Properties of lubricant
Dropping point
• The temperature at which the oil separates from the
thickener
Properties of lubricant
Structural stability
• The ability of the grease to resist changes in consistency
during mechanical working
Properties of lubricant
Classification of lubricants
Based on condition
• Solid lubricants
• Semi solid lubricants
• Liquid lubricants
Based on use
• Automotive lubricants
• Industrial lubricants
• Special lubricants
Basic Lubricant Knowledge
Classification of lubricants (Cont’d)
Based on grade
• Multi grade lubricants
• Mono grade lubricants
Based on source
• Mineral based lubricants
• Synthetic based lubricants
Basic Lubricant Knowledge
Mineral based lubricants
• The mineral lubricants get from crude oil through refine.
• Need to add additives, usually 10%
Classification of lubricants
Synthetic based lubricants
• Is a lubricant consisting of chemical compounds that are
artificially made (synthesized).
• Synthetic lubricants can be manufactured using chemically
modified petroleum components rather than whole crude oil
Classification of lubricants
Semisolid lubricants
• Greases
• An oil with thickening agent added
Classification of lubricants
Solid lubricants
• There are many types of solid lubricant used for different
applications
• Synthetic, metallic or mineral powders such as PTFE (Teflon),
copper, graphite
