Mineral oils; It is obtained by processing crude oil in refineries. Mineral oils cannot be obtained directly. It is obtained by mixing different viscosity base oils and additives added according to product properties.
Properties of mineral oils:
When the asperites on the product surfaces, ie the indentations and protrusions that can be seen under the microscope, contact each other on the dry surface, friction occurs. The main task of mineral oils is to reduce friction between surfaces. It separates two solid objects by forming a film layer between the surfaces in contact and allows the parts to move easily.
Obtaining Mineral Oils:
"Mineral Oils" are obtained by processing crude oil in refineries. Mineral oils are passed through different special processes and base oils, which are the raw materials of mineral oils, are obtained. Subsequently, base oils are classified according to their viscosity and base oils with a suitable viscosity for the desired mineral oils are mixed with additives.
The reason for the differences in mineral oils available on the market;
- Chemical differences of base oils used
- Differences of additives used
Classification of Mineral Oils:
1. Aliphatics
Paraffinic
Naphthenic
2. Aromatics
3. Aliphatic and Aromatics
