Summary

The maintenance of lubricating oils in circulating systems which ordinarily lubricate the bearings and gears of machines or motors as well as hydraulic systems in industry is discussed. Interfacial tension values can be useful in determining when to purify oil in order to prevent sludging of systems, and information as to the remaining service life or degree of inhibitor exhaustion may be swiftiy obtained by rotary bomb oxidation testing. Oil decomposition products usually may be effectively removed by fuller's earth adsorptive filtration without reducing stability. (auth)
