Rheology of Used Diesel Lubricants When Contaminated with Soot-The Brookfield Measurement Opportunity

摘要

used Diesel oil viscosity is commonly measured by the kinematic method as outlined in the Mack T-8 used diesel soot procedure (ASTM D 5967 for used oil form Mack T-8 engine test, and CEC L-83-A-97 for used oil form PSA XUD11 ATE engine test). The limitations of the kinematic Viscosity measurement for used oils heavily loaded with Carbonaceous matters, have led to a new proposed Method with many be better suited for these oils.
