What Do Oil Parameters Mean?
1 Answers
Oil parameters refer to the temperature performance of engine oil, also known as engine lubricating oil. Its functions include: 1. Lubrication and friction reduction; 2. Assisting in cooling and temperature reduction; 3. Sealing and leak prevention; 4. Rust and corrosion prevention; 5. Shock absorption and buffering. Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of base oil performance. It can be categorized into diesel engine oil and gasoline engine oil. Engine oil is classified by viscosity index into: 1. Low viscosity index; 2. Medium viscosity index; 3. High viscosity index; 4. Very high viscosity index; 5. Ultra-high viscosity index.
