E-Book - Analytical Methods for the Evaluation of Lubricants
Lubricants are essential to the reliability and efficiency of countless mechanical systems – from industrial gearboxes and turbines to automotive engines and high-performance hydraulic drives.
This e-book offers a comprehensive look at laboratory methods, application examples, and analytical solutions for evaluating lubricants, greases, metalworking fluids, and specialty oils. It brings together real-world testing scenarios, industry-relevant standards, and practical workflows developed across multiple lubricant types and use cases.
Structured around typical sample types and testing goals, the chapters cover:
- Kinematic viscosity, density, and low-temperature behavior
- Oxidation stability and flash point
- Friction and wear performance under controlled tribological conditions
- In-service monitoring of used oils and lubricant degradation
- Evaluation of environmentally acceptable lubricants (EALs)
- Additive testing and formulation behavior
- Quality control of metalworking emulsions and greases
- Matching measurement methods to industry standards and application demands
