When extra performance is required we use synthetic & specialty base oils. Combined with a high-quality additive package these oils last longer in service & can cope with wider extremes of temperature & pressure. However, not all synth...
Mineral base oils derived from refined crude oils dominate the market by volume. API Group I – III oils are the most popular, so understanding how they behave and their physical/chemical characteristics is key to understanding their performance.
Base oils are a foundational component of lubrication. The base oil viscosity is the leading factor in lubrication performance. In this course we will classify base oils by type and discuss the properties that define base oil performance.
