The additives. THOR-105 training course on diagnosis of oils and greasings portable analyzers.

Additives are chemical compounds that are added in small the quantities in the base oil to improve their performance properties. Can be from 0.1% to 30% of the finished oil.

We invite all technicians on our training course THOR-105 "Tribodiagnostics. Fundamentals of lubrication of machines and equipment".

Additives are used to modify the base oil, and exactly:

• Expand existing properties.

• Remove unwanted properties.

• Add new properties.

The types of additives and their role in oil:

• Anti - protects the surface of the engine from wear under boundary friction.

• Corrosion inhibitors protect the steel/iron
from rust/corrosion.

• Dispersant - share small particles
soot in the oil.

• Cleaning - clean the surface from the engine and neutralize the generated acid.

• Antioxidant - compensate for the effect of oxidation from sources such as water, heat, air, catalysts and other

• Defoamers and other
