What is the difference between fuel gasoline and engine oil gasoline?
1 Answers
Fuel and engine oil have the following specific differences: 1. Different functions: (1) Fuel: Fuel is burned to generate energy to drive the engine, and fuel belongs to the category of fuel. (2) Engine oil: Engine oil is engine lubricating oil, which can lubricate and reduce wear, assist in cooling and temperature reduction, seal and prevent leakage, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. 2. Different types: (1) Fuel: Fuel is mainly classified into gasoline and diesel. Gasoline is classified according to its octane content, such as 90#, 97#, etc. Diesel is classified according to its freezing point. For example, 0# means it will solidify into a solid when the temperature is below 0 degrees Celsius. (2) Engine oil: It is divided into gasoline engine oil, diesel engine oil, and gas engine oil. Engine oil on the market can be simply divided into mineral oil and synthetic oil based on its base oil. 3. Different characteristics: (1) Fuel: Fuel is a mixture of various compounds composed of multiple elements, and its freezing point is related to its chemical composition. As the wax content in the fuel increases, the freezing point of the fuel rises; while the more gum-like substances in the fuel, the lower the freezing point. Fuel easily generates static electricity when in contact with air, steel, etc., and static charges can accumulate and remain on their surfaces for a considerable time. The faster the fuel flows, the higher the voltage generated. (2) Engine oil: Lubricity; low-temperature operability; viscosity-temperature characteristics; oxidation resistance; foam resistance.
