Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluid Performance Testing

摘要

This paper scientifically, objectively and quantitatively compares the performance of several biodegradable hydraulic fluids to the performance of several petroleum hydraulic fluids. Testing was done at independent laboratories, by the U.S. Military, by several Original Equipment Manufacturers, and by long term field trials. This testing shows that the performance of biodegradable lubricants can be as good, if not better than, conventional petroleum fluids.
