Lubricating oil supplier

Lubricants can be divided into many different types according to the different sources of their base oil and the different composition of additives.

The main types of lubricants and their application areas are described below.

1. Mineral oil lubricants:

Mineral oil is the most common type of lubricating oil, and its main component is crude oil extracted from petroleum. Mineral oil lubricants have low cost and good high temperature resistance, and are suitable for general industrial equipment and vehicles.

2. Synthetic oil lubricants:

Synthetic oil is the lubricating oil obtained by synthetic chemical reaction, and its base oil comes from various sources, such as polyolefin, ester, polyether and so on. Synthetic oil lubricating oil has a high viscosity index, good oxidation resistance and anti-wear properties, suitable for high temperature, high load, long time operation conditions, such as aircraft engines, Marine engines, etc.

3. Semi-synthetic oil lubricants:

Semi-synthetic oil Lubricating oil is a mixture of mineral oil and synthetic oil, combining the advantages of both, with better anti-wear properties and high temperature properties. Suitable for some medium temperature and load industrial equipment and vehicles.

4. Bio-based lubricants:

Bio-based lubricating oil is the use of vegetable oil or animal oil as the base oil, adding related additives made of lubricating oil. Bio-based lubricating oil has good ecological and environmental performance and biodegradation performance, and is suitable for use in some special environments, such as agricultural machinery, food processing equipment and so on.

In addition to the main types mentioned above, there are some special lubricating oil types, such as:

5. High temperature lubricating oil:

High temperature lubricating oil is mainly used in equipment under high temperature conditions, such as high temperature dryers, high temperature furnaces and so on. This type of lubricant requires high temperature stability and oxidation resistance.

6. Low temperature lubricating oil:

Low temperature lubricating oil is mainly used in equipment under low temperature conditions, such as refrigeration equipment, freezers, etc. This kind of lubricating oil needs to have the characteristics of good low temperature fluidity and good low temperature starting performance.

7. Food grade lubricants:

Food-grade lubricating oil is mainly used in equipment that comes into contact with food, such as food processing machinery, packaging machinery, etc. These lubricants need to meet food safety standards and not cause contamination to food.

8. Air compressor oil:

Air compressor oil is mainly used in air compressor equipment, such as screw air compressor, piston air compressor and so on. This type of lubricating oil needs to have good lubricity and oxidation resistance to ensure the normal operation of air compressor equipment.

9. Automobile lubricating oil:

Automotive lubricating oil is mainly used in the lubrication of engine, transmission system, brake system and other automotive parts. According to the requirements of different parts, automotive lubricating oil can be divided into engine oil, gear oil, brake fluid and so on.

In short, different types of lubricants have their own applications in different fields and equipment. According to the working conditions, requirements and environmental characteristics of the equipment, the selection of the appropriate type of lubricating oil can ensure the normal operation of the equipment and extend the service life.
