Solvent processing, first used in the 1930s to improve base oil performance, is still used today to produce Group I lubricant stock. Slide13: Liquid lubricants Lanolin (wool grease, natural water repellant) Water Mineral oils Vegetable (natural oil) Synthetic oils Others Note: although generally lubricants are based on one type of base oil or another, it is quite possible to use mixtures of the base oils to meet performance requirements. Laboratory environments to create these lubricants. Sepahan Oil produces Group I SN500 base oils, engine oils, industrial lubricants, automobile gear oils, greases and anti-freeze, paraffin, heavy slack wax and rubber processing oil at the Isfahan plant. Lubricants, the base fluid is extracted from crude oil. To help you choose between synthetic and petroleum-based lubricants for your Falk gearbox, we compare and contrast these two options below and explain when it's best to use each variety. Can be manufactured from base oil or slax wax from dewaxing process. During the extraction process, the crude oil must be refined, all salt and wax must be removed, and the oil must be distilled to separate out the usable hydrocarbons. This process again produces two products: a byproduct wax that is almost completely paraffinic and a dewaxed oil that contains paraffins, naphthenes and some aromatics. SAE viscosity index >120 - Manufactured by special processes such as isohydromerization. The market for vegetable oil based hydraulic fluids has grown because of relative advantages that these fluids have, when compared with other fluid types.
