1、FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD EU-BJ 010-01 2001 0724 FORD MODIFIED OXIDATION TEST Revised Editorial - no technical change A. Cockman Application This method is used to determine the stability of lubricating oils. Evaluation of the lubricant consists in determining the tendency of oil to thicken and/or
2、 to form insolubles, varnish and strong acids. Description of Test A covered beaker containing the sample is maintained at test temperature in a temperature controlled heating device. The sample is agitated by means of a steel paddle. Aluminum, steel and copper strips are immersed in the lubricant t

9、 to be tested. Rinse test strip in naphtha and dry. Clean a 400 mL beaker and add 275 mL of the oil to be tested. Using laboratory tongs place 1 steel, 1 copper and 5 aluminum test strips in the beaker strip holder. Place the beaker and contents in the heating device, insert the stirring rod through
10、 the opening of the cover and fit the strip holder and strips into the beaker. Ensure that the end of the stirring rod is 20 +/- 1 mm above the bottom of the glass beaker. Start the test, being careful not to overheat the sample, and run continuously (24 h per day) until completion of the specified
11、number of test hours. A 15 mL sample of test oil and an aluminum strip is removed from each beaker at 24 h intervals. The aluminum test strip is washed in petroleum naphtha and rated for varnish deposits using standard CRC varnish rating. Viscosity at 37.78 OC and 98.89 OC are determined using the A
12、STM D 445 method. The pentane insolubles are determined by diluting 1 gram of sample with 100 mL pentane and filtering through a 0.3 micron millipore filter, or as specified in the relevant specification. At the conclusion of the test, the additional data to be obtained is strong acid number, infrar
