Q

THEY POSSES POOR OILINESS

A

MINERAL OR PETROLEUM OIL

22
Q

NO SINGLE OIL SAVES AS THE MOST SATISFACTORY LUBRICANT FOR MANY OF THE MODERN MACHINERIES

A

BLENDED OILS

23
Q

OILINESS OF A LUBRICANT CAN BE INCREASED BY ADDITION OF AN _____ LIKE VEGETABLE OILS AND FATTY ACIDS

A

OILINESS-CARRIERS

24
Q

A THICK FILM OF OIL IS DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN, AND THE OIL NEED TO HAVE A HIGH OILINESS.

A

EXTREME-PRESSURE ADDITIVES

25
Q

BESIDES IMPROVING OILINESS DIRECTLY

A

HIGH-PRESSURE ADDITIVES

26
Q

CONTAIN CERTAIN MATERIALS WHICH ARE ABSORBED ON THE METAL SURFACE OR REACT CHEMICALLY WITH METAL, PRODUCING A SURFACE A LAYER OF LOW SHEAR- STRENGTH ON THE METAL SURFACE, THEREBY PREVENTING THE TEARING UP OF THE METAL.

A

EXTREME-PRESSURE ADDITIVES

27
Q

THEY REACT AT HIGH TEMPERATURE ON METAL SURFACES, FORMING SURFACE ALLOYS SO AS TO PREVENT THE WELDING TOGETHER OF THE RUBBING PARTS UNDER SEVERE OPERATING CONDITIONS.

A

HIGH-PRESSURE ADDITIVES

28
Q

DEPRESSING ADDITIVES USED ARE PHENOL AND CERTAIN CONDENSATION PRODUCTS OF CHLORINATED WAX WITH NAPHTHALENE

A

pour-point

29
Q

THESE PREVENT THE
SEPARATION OF WAX FROM THE OIL

A

pour-point

30
Q

WHEN ADDED TO OIL, RETARD OXIDATION OF OIL BY GETTING THEMSELVES PREFERENTIALLY OXIDIZED.

A

ANTIOXIDANTS OR INHIBITORS

31
Q

THEY ARE PARTICULARLY ADDED IN LUBRICANTS USED IN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES, TURBINES, ETC., WHERE OXIDATION OF OIL IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM.

A

ANTIOXIDANTS OR INHIBITORS

32
Q

ARE AROMATIC, PHENOLIC OR AMINO COMPOUNDS

A

ANTIOXIDANTS

33
Q

ARE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS OF PHOSPHORUS OR ANTIMONY.

A

Corrosion Preventers

34
Q

THEY PROTECT THE METAL FROM CORROSION BY PREVENTING CONTACT BETWEEN THE METAL SURFACES AND THE CORROSIVE SUB

A

Corrosion Preventers

35
Q

ARE DETERGENTS SUCH AS THE SALTS OF PHENOL AND CARBOXYLIC ACIDS.

A

DEPOSIT INHIBITORS

36
Q

HAVE HIGHER SHEAR OR FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE THAN OILS AND, THEREFORE, CAN SUPPORT MUCH HEAVIER LOADS AT LOWER SPEEDS.

A

GREASES OR SEMI-SOLID

36
Q

ARE FORMED IN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE,
DUE TO IMPERFECT COMBUSTION.

A

DEPOSIT

37
Q

THEY ALSO DO NOT
REQUIRE AS MUCH ATTENTION UNLIKE THE LUBRICATING LIQUIDS.

A

GREASES OR SEMI-SOLID

38
Q

HAVE A
TENDENCY TO SEPARATE INTO OILS AND SOAPS

A

GREASES

39
Q

IN SITUATIONS WHERE OIL CANNOT REMAIN IN PLACE, DUE TO HIGH LOAD, LOW SPEED,
INTERMITTENT OPERATION ETC.

A

GREASES

40
Q

IN BEARING AND GEARS THAT WORK AT HIGH TEMPERATURES

A

GREASES

41
Q

DRIPPING OR SPURTING OF OIL IS UNDESIRABLE, BECAUSE UNLIKE OILS, ____ IF USED
DO NOT SPLASH OR DRIP OVER ARTICLES BEING PREPARED BY THE MACHINE.

A

GREASES

41
Q

IN SITUATIONS WHERE BEARING NEEDS TO BE SEALED AGAINST ENTRY OF DUST, DIRT,
GRIT OR MOISTURE, BECAUSE _____ ARE LESS LIABLE TO CONTAMINATION.

A

GREASES

42
Q

SOLID LUBRICANTS ARE USED WHERE:

A
  1. OPERATING CONDITIONS ARE SUCH THAT A LUBRICATING FILM CANNOT BE
    SECURED BY USE OF LUBRICATING OILS OR GREASES.

    LUBRICATING OIL OR GREASE IS UNACCEPTABLE.
  3. OPERATING TEMPERATURES OR LOAD IS TOO HIGH EVEN FOR A SEMI-SOLID
    LUBRICANT TO REMAIN IN POSITION; AND (IV) COMBUSTIBLE LUBRICANTS MUST BE AVOIDED
43
Q

THE TWO MOST USUAL SOLID LUBRICANTS

A
  1. Graphite
