Will engine oil evaporate under natural conditions?
1 Answers
Under normal temperature conditions, engine oil generally does not evaporate, but it may evaporate under high-temperature conditions inside the engine, which can pollute the atmosphere. More information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Function: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. 2. Composition: Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties. Additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance, granting it certain new properties, making them an essential part of lubricating oil.
