HT PURITY PROCESS
PETRO-CANADA AND THE PATENTED HT PURITY PROCESS
BASE OIL MANUFACTURE
Lubricant base oils are produced in a series of steps which are designed toenhance certain desirable properties. For paraffinic oils, these include viscosityindex, oxidation resistance, thermal stability and low temperature fluidity.
Starting from petroleum crude oil, the typical process for making a lubricantbase oil is as follows:• Separation of lighter boiling materials, such as gasoline, diesel, etc.• Distillation to give desired base oil viscosity grades• Selective removal of impurities, such as aromatics and polar compounds• Dewaxing to improve low temperature fluidity• Finishing to improve oxidation resistance and heat stability
Generally both Solvent Refined and Hydrocracked base oils are manufacturedthis way, but differ in the processes used.
BASE OIL CLASSIFICATION
Before reviewing how base oil is manufactured, we should explain theAmerican Petroleum Institute’s (API) Base Oil Classification system. Forengine oils, the API system classifies base oils into five major groups, asshown below:
API Base Oil Characteristics ManufacturingGroup Sulphur Saturates Viscosity Index Method
Wt, % Wt, % VII > 0.03 < 90 80-119 Solvent RefinedII < 0.03 > 90 80-119 HydroprocessedIII < 0.03 > 90 120 + Severely HydroprocessedIV Polyalpha Olefins (PAOs) OligomerizationV Other Base Oils Various
Group I, or conventional base oils manufactured by Solvent Refining, make upmost of the base oil produced in the world today. Containing more than 0.03 wt % Sulphur and less than 90 wt % Saturates, they are less pure thanHydroprocessed or Synthetic base oils. While these groups were originallyintended to be used for engine oils, their usage has expanded beyond thisarea.
Group II and III base oils are manufactured by what the API calls Hydro-processing or Severe Hydroprocessing. These are just other names for Petro-Canada’s Patented HT Purity Process. With Sulphur contents of lessthan 0.03 wt % and Saturates contents of more than 90 wt %, they are morepure than Group I base oils.

HT PURITY PROCESS
SOLVENT REFINING PROCESS
Initially, light oils such as gasoline, diesel, etc., are separated from crudepetroleum by atmospheric distillation. The resulting material is charged to avacuum distillation tower, where lubricant fractions of specific viscosity rangesare taken off. These fractions are then treated individually in a solventextraction tower. A solvent such as furfural is mixed with them and extractsabout 70-85% of the aromatic material present. The solvent extracted lubefraction is then dewaxed by chilling to a low temperature, which removes muchof the wax. This improves the low temperature fluidity of the product. Finally,the dewaxed lube fractions are sometimes finished to improve their colour andstability, depending on the application requirements. One common method offinishing is mild hydrofinishing. This step should not be confused withPetro-Canada’s Patented HT Purity Process, as conditions oftemperature and pressure in hydrofinishing are mild and less effective. TheAPI classifies the products of Solvent Refining as Group I base oils.

PETRO-CANADA’S HT SEVERE HYDROCRACKING PROCESS
In Petro-Canada’s HT Severe Hydrocracking process, the elimination ofaromatics and polar compounds is achieved by reacting the feedstock withhydrogen, in the presence of a catalyst at high temperatures and pressures.
Several different reactions occur in this process, the principal ones being:• Removal of polar compounds, containing sulphur, nitrogen and oxygen• Conversion of aromatic hydrocarbons to saturated cyclic hydrocarbons• Breaking up of heavy polycyclo-paraffins to lighter saturated hydrocarbons
These reactions take place at temperatures as high as 400°C , pressuresaround 3000 psi and in the presence of a catalyst. The hydrocarbonmolecules that are formed are very stable and this makes them ideal for useas lubricant base oils. They are classified by the API as Group II base oils.
There are two stages in the Petro-Canada Severe Hydrocracking process.The first one removes unwanted polar compounds and converts the aromaticcomponents to saturated hydrocarbons. After separation into desired viscositygrades by vacuum distillation, batches of waxy lube base oil are chill dewaxed.These are then passed through a second high pressure hydro-treater foradditional saturation. This final step maximizes base oil stability, by removingthe last traces of aromatic and polar molecules.

HT PURITY PROCESS
HT SEVERE HYDROCRACKING/HYDROISOMERIZATION
In 1996, Petro-Canada completed a new base oil manufacturing unit to run inparallel with its existing base oil plant. This new unit utilizes the HT SevereHydrocracking process, but replaces the chill dewaxing step with the moremodern and efficient wax conversion process .... HydroIsomerization.
The HydroIsomerization process employs a special catalyst to selectivelyisomerize wax (n-paraffin mixture) to high VI, low pour point, iso-paraffiniclube oil. The process yields base oils with higher VIs and improved yields,compared to previous conventional dewaxing techniques. The process iscapable of giving 130 VI base fluids, in a single pass. More usually, it is set upto produce high viscosity index (Group II) base oils with VIs ranging from 95 to105 or unconventional (Group II+ and III) base fluids with VIs ranging from 115to 130. A further process feature is the flexibility it offers to produce base oilswith ultra low pour points .... lower than - 25°C.
Petro-Canada employs HydroIsomerization dewaxing in conjunction with HTSevere Hydrocracking and as a result its base oils have the following attractivefeatures:
• Very High Viscosity Index (100 to 130)• Low Volatility• Excellent Oxidation Resistance• High Thermal Stability• Excellent Low Temperature Fluidity• Low Toxicity
These features give performance characteristics very similar to lubricantsbased on poly-alpha-olefin (PAO), a type of synthetic.

HT PURITY PROCESS
COMPARISON OF THE PRODUCTS OF PATENTED HTPURITY PROCESS AND SOLVENT REFINING
• BASE OILS
There are significant differences in certain characteristics between HTSeverely Hydrocracked and Solvent Refined base oils. The main reason forthe difference lies in the virtual elimination of aromatic molecules (less than0.5%) in our HT Purity Process. HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils aretermed “99.5+% Pure”. In comparison, the aromatics content of SolventRefined oils is somewhere between 10-30% so Solvent Refined base oils areconsiderably less pure.
Characteristic Significant Difference
COLOUR HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils are clear and colourless
VISCOSITY INDEX HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils have high VIs so they ‘thin-out’ less at high temperatures.
OXIDATION RESISTANCE HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils respond very well to anti-oxidants and so have superior resistance to oxidation and a longer lubricant life in finished products.
THERMAL STABILITY HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils have verygood resistance to heat.
CARBON RESIDUE HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils produce low residues.
DEMULSIBILITY HT Severely Hydrocracked oils separate readily from water.
LOW TOXICITY HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils have low toxicity, due to a virtual absence of impurities. Petro-Canada White Oils are pure enough to be used in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
BIODEGRADABILITY HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils have biodegradability characteristics.

HT PURITY PROCESS
• FINISHED LUBRICANTS
Finished lubricants blended from Petro-Canada HT Severely Hydrocrackedbase oils are superior to lubricants blended from Solvent Refined base oils inseveral areas. These include:• Viscosity Stability• Oxidation Resistance• Thermal Stability• Reduced Environmental Impact
• VISCOSITY STABILITY
In service, Petro-Canada HT Severely Hydrocracked lubricants do not‘thicken-up’, i.e. increase in viscosity, as much as Solvent Refined lubricants.This is especially valuable for automatic transmission fluids, where consistentshift characteristics depend on viscosity stability. This feature also contributesto greater fuel efficiency in motor oils and reduced power consumption fromindustrial lubricants.
• OXIDATION RESISTANCE
Finished lubricants based on Petro-Canada HT Severely Hydrotreated basestocks show a superior resistance to oxidation compared to Solvent Refinedlubricants. This allows them to be used at higher temperatures or for longertime periods than Solvent Refined lubricants. Petro-Canada’s unique line ofproducts, such as COMPRO XL-S Compressor Fluid, TURBOFLO Fluid, etc.are based upon this valuable property.
• THERMAL STABILITY
Petro-Canada HT Severely Hydrocracked lubricants demonstrate excellentthermal stability. This leads to reduced deposits and cleaner equipmentinternals, compared to Solvent Refined lubricants. Petro-Canada product linesthat exploit this feature include CALFLO Heat Transfer Fluid, COMPRO XL-SCompressor Fluid, Automatic Transmission Fluid, etc.
• REDUCED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Petro-Canada HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils have very low toxicity andbiodegrade faster than Solvent Refined lubricants of comparable viscosity, dueto a virtual absence of impurities. When carefully formulated with selectedadditives, these features are preserved in finished lubricants. Applicationswhere these features may be found include:- Petro-Canada PURITY FG FoodGrade Lubricants, ENVIRON MV Hydraulic Oil, PARAFLEX HT Fluids,SEPRO* XL, etc.

QUALITY ASSURANCE – SECOND TO NONE IN THE WORLD
ISO 9001 REGISTRATION
ISO 9001 is the global standard for documenting quality control throughout an entiremanufacturing and business process. It is administered by the International Organi-zation for Standardization (ISO), a Swiss based organization that sets rigid stan-dards for a very wide range of products and services.
ISO 9001 is an international standard that adopts a process approach to qualitymanagement and business. It promotes a focus on customer quality requirements,enhancing customer satisfaction, and achieving continual improvement through theuse of setting measurable objectives and targets.
Petro-Canada Lubricants earned the distinction of being the first lubricants manufac-turer in North America to be ISO 9001 registered. To be registered, the ISO 9001process requires a thorough inspection of a company’s production and control sys-tems by an independent registrar. Stringent audits are conducted to ensure detailedprocedures are rigidly adhered to and all products are manufactured consistently inaccordance with established standards. Following registration, twice yearly auditsare conducted by the registrar to ensure ongoing compliance and improvement.
ISO/TS 16949 REGISTRATION
In March 1997, Petro-Canada became the first Canadian lubricant manufacturer toreceive QS9000 certification. Developed by Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, and theNorth American truck manufacturers, the goal of QS9000 was the creation of funda-mental quality systems to provide continuous improvement with an emphasis ondefect prevention and the reduction of variation and waste in the supply chain.
In October 2002, Petro-Canada Lubricants opened the door to the global market bybeing the first lubricants manufacturer in the world to be registered to ISO/TS 16949.This new global standard, which replaces QS9000, is designed for third party suppli-ers to the automotive companies. This strongly demonstrates Petro-Canada’s abilityto continuously improve our quality system. ISO/TS 16949 was jointly developed byISO and the IATF (International Automobile Task Force) and contains all require-ments of ISO 9001 and additional automotive requirements.
ISO 14001
ISO 14001 is an internationally recognized approach to Environmental Management.It is a disciplined approach to identification, prioritization, and management of envi-ronmental impacts resulting from business operations, and as member of the ISOfamily of International Standards, provides a consistent set of operating guidelines.
ISO 14001 differs fundamentally from ISO/TS 16949 and ISO 9001. Whilethese programs provide guidelines to address customer needs and expecta-tions in terms of quality of product/service, ISO 14001 focuses on the protec-tion of the natural environment and protecting people from environmentalimpacts. It is more rigorous than the environmental elements prescribed inPetro-Canada’s TLM Standard.
Petro-Canada Lubricants has chosen ISO 14001 as the foundation for itsEnvironmental Management System due to its wide recognition and globalacceptance. ISO 14001 principles are in line with Petro-Canada’s internalTotal Loss Management philosophy.

ENGINE OIL FUNCTIONSA modern engine oil has been carefully developed by engineers and chemiststo perform several important functions. The efficient operation of an enginedepends on the oil doing the following:
� Permit easy starting� Lubricate engine parts and prevent wear� Reduce friction� Protect against rust and corrosion� Keep engine parts clean� Reduce combustion chamber deposits� Fight soot� Cool engine parts� Seal combustion pressures� Be non-foaming
� Permit Easy StartingThe ease of starting an engine depends not only on the condition of thebattery, ignition and fuel quality, but also on the flow properties of the motoroil. If the oil is too viscous or heavy at starting temperatures, it will imposeenough drag on the moving parts that the engine cannot be cranked fastenough to start promptly and keep running.
Since cold temperatures thicken all oils, an oil for winter use must be thinenough to permit adequate cranking speeds at the lowest anticipatedtemperature. It must also be fluid enough to quickly flow to the bearings toprevent wear. In addition, the oil must be thick enough, when the enginereaches normal operating temperatures, to provide adequate protection.
The characteristic of an oil which determines ease of cranking is its viscosity atthe cranking temperature. Viscosity is a measure of the oil’s resistance to flow.This resistance, or fluid friction, keeps the oil from being squeezed out frombetween engine surfaces when they are moving under load or pressure. Resis-tance to motion or flow is a function of the molecular structure of the oil. Since itis this resistance that is responsible for most of the drag put on the starter duringcranking, it is important to use an oil with viscosity characteristics that ensuresatisfactory cranking, proper oil circulation, and high temperature protection.
Handbook Canadian 2/27/07 8:43 AM Page 29

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
The effect of temperature on viscosity varies widely with different types of oil.For this reason, a standard has been developed for measuring the amount ofviscosity change with temperature change. This standard is called the ViscosityIndex (V.l.). An oil with a high viscosity index is one that shows less change inviscosity with temperature. Today, through the use of new refining methods andspecial chemical additives, there are many high viscosity index engine oils thatare light enough for easy cranking at low temperatures and still be heavyenough to perform satisfactorily at high temperatures.
These oils with high viscosity indexes are known as “multi-grade” oils. Oftenthey are also called by names that imply all-season usage since they performsatisfactorily in both winter and summer. Multi-grade oils are most often recommended by vehicle manufacturers.
� Lubricate and Prevent WearOnce an engine is started, the oil must circulate promptly and lubricate allmoving surfaces to prevent the metal-to-metal contact that would result inwear, scoring, or seizure of engine parts. Oil films on bearings and cylinderwalls are sensitive to movement, pressure and oil supply. These films must becontinually replenished by adequate flow and proper oil distribution.
As mentioned earlier, the viscosity of an oil must be low enough at the startingtemperature to permit rapid cranking and starting, and high enough at peakoperating temperatures to ensure adequate engine protection.
Once the oil reaches the moving parts its function is to lubricate and preventwear of the moving surfaces. Lubrication engineers describe several classesof lubrication.
Full-film or hydrodynamic lubrication occurs when the moving surfaces arecontinuously separated by a film of oil. The determining factor in keepingthese parts separated is the viscosity of the oil at its operating temperature.The viscosity must remain high enough to prevent metal-to-metal contact.Since the metals do not make contact in full-film lubrication, wear is negligibleunless the separated parts are scratched by particles thicker than the oil filmitself. Crankshaft bearings, as well as connecting rods, camshaft, and pistonpins, normally operate with full-film lubrication.
Under some conditions, it is impossible to maintain a continuous oil filmbetween moving parts and there is intermittent metal-to-metal contactbetween the high spots on sliding surfaces. Lubrication engineers call thisboundary lubrication. Under these circumstances, the load is only partiallysupported by the oil film. The oil film is ruptured resulting in significant metal-to-metal contact. When this occurs, the friction generated between thesurfaces can produce enough heat to cause one or both of the metals incontact to melt and weld together. Unless counteracted by proper additivetreatment, the result is either immediate seizure or the tearing apart androughening of the surfaces.
Boundary lubrication conditions always exist during engine starting and oftenduring the operation of a new or rebuilt engine. Boundary lubrication is alsofound around the top piston ring where oil supply is limited, temperatures arehigh, and a reversal of piston motion occurs.
Handbook Canadian 2/27/07 8:43 AM Page 30
31
� Reduce FrictionUnder full-film lubrication conditions, a thick film of oil prevents metal-to-metalcontact between moving engine parts. Relative movement of these lubricatedparts requires enough force to overcome the fluid friction of the lubricant. Theviscosity of the oil should be high enough to maintain an unbroken film, butshould not be higher than necessary, since this increases the amount of forcerequired to overcome this fluid friction.
Car manufacturers specify proper oil viscosity ranges according to expectedambient temperatures. This is to ensure that the lubricant will provideadequate, but not excessive, viscosity at normal operating conditions. Whenoil becomes contaminated, its viscosity changes. With soot, dirt, oxidation, orsludge, viscosity increases; with fuel dilution it decreases. Both directions ofviscosity change are potentially harmful to the engine. For this reason,contaminant levels in motor oil must be kept low. This can be bestaccomplished by changing the oil and filter at proper intervals.
The amount and type of chemical additives is important for reducing frictionunder the extreme pressure conditions of boundary lubrication. The properbalance of the total additive system in a modern motor oil is critical if alllubrication conditions of an engine are to be satisfied. The oil formulator canachieve this balance of motor oil compounding only through much research,with emphasis on proof-testing in actual engines, both in the laboratory and infield service.
� Protect Against Rust and CorrosionUnder ideal conditions, fuel burns to form carbon dioxide and water. For a vari-ety of reasons, a gasoline or diesel engine does not burn the fuel completely.Some of the partially burned gasoline or diesel fuel undergoes complexchemical changes during combustion and, under some conditions, forms soot orcarbon. Some of this soot and partially burned fuel escapes through theexhaust in the form of black smoke or foul smelling odors, particularly when thefuel-air mixture is extremely rich or cylinder misfiring occurs. That part of sootand unburned fuel which escapes past the rings and into the crankcase tends tocombine with water to form sludge and varnish deposits on critical engine parts.Sludge buildup may clog oil passages which reduces oil flow. Varnish buildupinterferes with proper clearances, restricts oil circulation and causes vital engineparts to stick and malfunction. The result can be rapid engine failure.For each gallon of fuel burned in an engine, more than one gallon of water isformed. Although most of this water is in vapor form and goes out the exhaust,some condenses on the cylinder walls or escapes past the piston rings and istrapped, at least temporarily, in the crankcase. This occurs most frequently incold weather before the engine has warmed up.In addition to water and the byproducts from incomplete combustion of the fuel,other corrosive combustion gases also get past the rings and are condensedor dissolved in the engine oil. Add to this the acids formed by the normal oxi-dation of oil and the potential for rust and corrosive engine deposits becomessignificant.
The life of engine parts depends in part on the ability of the motor oil toneutralize these corrosive substances. Thanks to much research, effective oil-soluble chemical compounds have been developed. These are added to motoroil during manufacture to provide vital protection to engine parts.

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
� Keep Engine Parts CleanIn formulating today’s high quality motor oils, a basic objective is not only tokeep engine parts clean, but also to prevent sludge and varnish deposits frominterfering with proper engine operation.
Engine sludge formation is generally a problem of low engine temperatureoperation. Engine sludge deposits are formed by combinations of water fromcondensation, dirt and the products of oil deterioration and incompletecombustion. Sludge-forming materials are often so small initially that no oilfilter can remove them. They are much smaller than the thickness of the oilfilm on engine parts and therefore cause no wear or damage so long as theyremain small and well-dispersed. However, as their levels increase in the oilduring use, they tend to join together to form larger masses and oil flow canbe restricted.
Sludge formation is aggravated by water vapor which condenses in thecrankcase in cold engine operation. The rate at which sludge-forming materialsaccumulate in the crankcase oil is related to several factors of engine opera-tion. Factors such as, rich air-fuel mixtures which occur during starting orwhen a choke is sticking; operating with dirty air cleaners; or cases of ignitionmisfiring, increase the rate of sludge accumulation in the oil.
Straight mineral oils have only a very limited ability to keep thesecontaminants from coagulating and forming masses of sludge within theengine. This is the job of the detergent/dispersant additives that are blendedinto modern motor oils. These additives keep vital engine parts clean and oilcontaminants suspended in such a fine form that they can be removed byregular oil and filter changes.
Detergent/dispersants are also very effective in preventing varnish depositswithin an engine. Varnish-forming materials react chemically or combine withoxygen in the crankcase to form complex chemical compounds. Thesecompounds continue to react with each other and with oxygen and are bakedby engine heat into a hard coating on the hotter parts of the engine. Thehydraulic lifters, piston rings, and bearings are particularly sensitive to varnishdeposits. If varnish-forming materials are allowed to accumulate in theseareas, engine operation is impaired.
Engines cannot tolerate excessive amounts of sludge and varnish on sensitiveparts. Sludge deposits collect on oil pump screens, limiting the flow of oil tovital engine parts and resulting in rapid and destructive wear. Piston ringswhich are stuck or sluggish because of varnish accumulation prevent theengine from developing full power. Sludged or plugged oil-control ringsprevent removal of excess lubricant from the cylinder walls and result inexcessive oil consumption.
� Reduce Combustion Chamber DepositsIn performing its lubrication function, some oil must reach the area of the toppiston ring in order to lubricate the rings and the cylinder walls. This oil is thenexposed to the heat and flame of burning fuel and part of it actually burns off.
Modern refining techniques have produced oils that burn cleanly under theseconditions, leaving little or no carbon residue. The detergent/dispersant addi-tives in modern motor oils keep the piston rings free in their grooves, therebymaintaining compression pressures and minimizing the amount of oil reaching

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
the combustion chamber. This not only reduces oil consumption, but moreimportantly, keeps combustion chamber deposits to a minimum.
Excessive combustion chamber deposits adversely affect engine operation.Deposits that form on spark plugs may cause the plugs to short out. Their build-upcauses pinging, knock, or other combustion irregularities that reduce the efficiencyand economy of the engine. Because these deposits act as heat barriers, pistons,rings, spark plugs, and valves are not properly cooled. This can result in damageor even failure of the parts necessitating premature overhaul.
In preventing excessive combustion chamber deposits, it is important that amotor oil accomplish two things:
� The oil must keep the rings free so that they can minimize the amount of oilreaching the combustion chamber.
� That portion of the oil reaching the combustion chamber should burn as cleanlyas possible.
� Fight Soot
Soot is a by-product of diesel-engine combustion. It is black carbonaceous partic-ulate matter, which does not dissolve in lubricating oil, but can be suspended bythe oil and removed during an oil change. If soot is not well dispersed it will causethe oil to thicken up and go out of grade. In addition, soot can agglomerate toform particles large enough to cause abrasive wear and when the soot load of anoil gets too high, it settles out and forms sludge. Agglomerated soot and/or highlythickened oil can result in high pressure at the oil filter inlet. This can cause the fil-ter by-pass to open and allow unfiltered oil into the engine.
Engine oils formulated to fight soot are able to disperse large amounts of sootwithout thickening up. Good soot dispersal stops large particles agglomerating,prevents abrasive wear developing and inhibits the formation of sludge.
Effective with the 2007 model year, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) has set stringent limits on nitrogen oxide (NOx) and particulate matter(PM) emissions from on-road trucks and buses. Through a combination of engineredesign, ultra-low-sulphur diesel (ULSD) fuel and new engine oil technology,these new vehicles will cut harmful emissions by 95 percent. In addition, the reg-ulation calls for a 97 percent reduction in the sulphur content of on-road dieselfuel – from 500 parts per million (ppm) to 15 ppm – so the fuel won’t damage thenew exhaust aftertreatment devices, specifically Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs)that trap and further reduce soot emissions.
Engine manufacturers have been developing engines that not only utilize DPFsbut also run on pollution-reducing ULSD fuel and utilize cooled exhaust gas recir-culation (EGR) devices to redirect some of the exhaust gases normally emittedby the vehicle back into the engine, creating more internal soot.
� Cool Engine PartsMany people assume that engine cooling is accomplished only through the actionof the fluid in the cooling system. This in fact does only about 60 percent of thecooling job. It cools the upper part of the engine only – the cylinder heads, cylin-der walls, and the valves. The crankshaft, the main and connecting rod bearings,the camshaft and its bearings, the timing gears, the pistons, and many othercomponents in the lower part of the engine are directly dependent on the motoroil for necessary cooling, All these parts have definite temperature limits which

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
must not be exceeded. Some can tolerate fairly high temperatures whileothers, such as the main and connecting rod bearings, must run relatively coolto avoid failure. These parts must get an ample supply of cool oil to pick up theheat and carry it back to the crankcase where it is cooled by heat transfer tothe surrounding air.
To keep this cooling process working, large volumes of oil must be constantlycirculated to the bearings and other engine parts. If the oil supply is inter-rupted, these parts heat up rapidly from increased friction and combustiontemperatures. A bearing failure is often referred to as a “burned-out bearing”because temperatures rose high enough to actually melt the bearing metal.
While only a small quantity of oil is required at any one time and place to pro-vide lubrication, the oil pump must circulate many litres of oil per minute.Chemical additives and the physical properties of the oil have little effect on itsability to provide adequate cooling. What is critical is the continuous circulationof large quantities of oil throughout the engine and over hot engine parts. Thisis made possible through the use of large-capacity oil pumps and oil passagesadequate to handle the required volume of oil. These oil passages cannot dothe job properly if they are allowed to become partially or completely cloggedwith deposits. When this happens, the oil cannot circulate or cool properly andearly engine failure may result. This is another reason for changing the oil andfilter before the contaminant level becomes too high. Proper cooling alsorequires that the oil level in the crankcase never be permitted to remain belowthe “add oil” line on the dipstick.
� Seal Combustion PressuresThe surfaces of the piston rings, ring grooves, and cylinder walls are not com-pletely smooth. If examined under a microscope, these surfaces would showminute hills and valleys. For this reason, the rings by themselves can nevercompletely prevent high combustion and compression pressures from escap-ing into the low pressure area of the crankcase, with the consequent reductionin engine power and efficiency. Motor oil fills in these hills and valleys on ringsurfaces and cylinder walls and helps to seal in compression and combustionpressures. Because the oil film at these points is rather thin – generally lessthan 0.025 mm thick – it cannot compensate for existing excessive wear ofrings, ring grooves, or cylinder walls. Where such conditions already exist, oilconsumption may be high. It may also be high in a new or rebuilt engine untilthe hills and valleys on these surfaces have smoothed out enough to allow theoil to form the right seal.
� Be Non-FoamingBecause of the many rapidly moving parts in an engine, air in the crankcase isconstantly being whipped into the oil. This produces foam, which is simply alot of air bubbles which may or may not readily collapse. These air bubblesnormally rise to the surface and break, but water and certain other contami-nants slow down the rate at which this occurs, and the result is foam.
Foam is not a good conductor of heat, so if the amount of foam is excessive,engine cooling will be impaired because the heat will not be dissipated. Foamalso does not have much ability to carry a load and prevent wear of hydraulicvalve lifters and bearings. This is because it contains air and air is easily com-pressible. On the other hand, oil which is free of air is virtually incompressible.

ADDITIVESIn summary, an engine oil has to perform ten basic functions. To carry outthese functions, the base oil must be refined to the highest level possible andthen compounded with specially selected chemical additives. Skillful selectionof additives, blended together with Petro-Canada’s HT Severely Hydrocrackedbase oils results in engine oils of outstanding performance.
• DETERGENTSThese chemicals, usually metallic based, are designed to control deposits andkeep engine components clean. They are able to clean up existing deposits inthe engine, as well as disperse insoluble matter into the oil. Detergents controlcontamination resulting from high temperature operation.
• DISPERSANTSThese are usually ashless organic chemicals, which control contaminationfrom low temperature operation. Both detergents and dispersants attachthemselves to contaminant particles, such as soot and hold them insuspension, preventing sludge and deposit formation. The suspendedparticles, together with their additive carrier, are so small that they can passharmlessly between moving surfaces and through oil filters. Thiscontamination is removed from the engine when the oil is changed.
• OXIDATION INHIBITORSThese agents reduce oxygen attack on the lubricant base oil to a minimum.Petro-Canada’s HT Severely Hydrocracked base oils have a superiorresponse to these additives compared to Solvent Refined base oils. Thisresults in an engine oil with high resistance to oil thickening and the build-upof corrosive acids, hence maintaining good oil flow properties and resistanceto bearing corrosion.
• CORROSION INHIBITORSAcids are produced by the combustion process and when an engine oildegrades with use. Unless rendered harmless by the engine oil, these acidscan cause rapid deterioration of engine components. Corrosion inhibitorsprotect non-ferrous metals by coating them and forming a barrier between theparts and their environment.
• RUST INHIBITORSRust Inhibitors protect iron/steel surfaces from oxygen attack, by forming asimilar protective screen as mentioned above. Parts such as hydraulic lifters,push rods, etc. are prone to this type of corrosion.
• ANTI-WEAR AGENTSThese agents prevent wear due to seizure or scuffing of rubbing surfaces. Compounds such as zinc dialkyl-dithiophosphate (ZDDP) break-down atmicroscopic hot spots and form a chemical film which eliminates metal-to-metalcontact before it grows. Thus scuffing, galling and seizure are prevented.

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
• FOAM DEPRESSANTSDetergent and dispersant additives can facilitate aeration of an oil, which leadsto foaming. This can reduce the lubricating ability of an oil and even interferewith oil pumping. Incorporation of a Foam Depressant controls this tendency.
• VISCOSITY INDEX (Vl) IMPROVERSVl improvers control the viscosity of multi-grade oils. They are polymers whichact like “popcorn”. At low temperatures, they are “tight-balls” which do not sig-nificantly increase the oil’s resistance to flow. However, at high temperatures,these “tight-balls” explode into long chain polymers, which interweave andincrease the oil’s resistance to flow (viscosity). Thus, the tendency of an oil to“thin” at high temperatures is controlled and reduced. Vl improvers must beshear stable, that is be able to perform when the oil film is subject to greatstress and also resist high temperatures.
• POUR POINT DEPRESSANTSBase oils contain hydrocarbons that tend to crystallize into waxy materials atlow temperatures. Incorporation of a chemical which reduces the size/rate ofwax crystal formation can give an oil better low temperature fluidity, hence alower Pour Point.
• FRICTION MODIFIERSSome oils contain friction-modifying chemicals, which can reduce the fuelconsumption of an engine. These chemicals form a chemical or physicallybonded film that reduces the friction between the moving engine parts.

OIL CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMSIn selecting a proper engine oil, the vehicle operator must consider both the oilviscosity and the lubricant service requirements for his vehicle. To enable theoperator to identify a proper oil, the engine manufacturers and the petroleumindustry utilize two complementary classification systems that are describedbelow:
SAE ENGINE OIL VISCOSITY CLASSIFICATIONThe earliest attempts to classify and identify motor oils were made when thefirst automobiles appeared. Even then viscosity was known to be one of themost important characteristics of an oil and oils were classified as light,medium, or heavy, depending on their viscosity. When instruments becameavailable to accurately measure viscosity, the Society of Automotive Engineers(SAE) developed a classification system based on viscosity measurements.This system (Engine Oil Viscosity Classification – SAE J300), which has beenmodified over the years, establishes eleven distinct motor oil viscosity classifi-cations or grades. SAE 0W, SAE 5W, SAE 10W, SAE 15W, SAE 20W, SAE25W, SAE 20, SAE 30, SAE 40, SAE 50 and SAE 60. (Other grade numbersare used to define the viscosities of gear oils).

† with 0W-40, 5W-40 and 10W-40 grades†† with 15W-40, 20W-40, 25W-40 & 40 grades
The “W” following the SAE viscosity grade stands for “winter” and indicatesthat an oil is suitable for use in colder temperatures. Oils carrying the “W”designation must have the proper viscosity value when measured atappropriate low temperatures. Those SAE classifications which do not includethe “W” define oil grades for use at higher temperatures. The viscosity of theseoils – SAE 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 – must have the proper value whenmeasured at 100°C and under high shear conditions at 150°C.

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
As noted earlier, the development of viscosity index improvers made themanufacture of multi-graded motor oil possible. These oils - SAE 0W-30, 5W-20,5W-30, 5W-40, 10W-30, 10W-40, 15W-40 and 20W-50 - have been marketed for decades in North America.
Multi-grade motor oils, such as SAE 5W-30, SAE 10W-30 etc. are widely usedbecause they are light enough for easy cranking at low temperatures, but heavyenough to perform satisfactorily at high temperatures as well.
The car manufacturers’ recommendations for crankcase oil viscosity should befollowed at all times. However, a basic guide prepared from car owners’manuals is shown in the table below:

Footnotes
i) The lowest ambient temperatures quoted above are for equipment with nostarting aids. Starting aids, such as block coolant heaters, oil sump heatersand battery warmers will further reduce the minimum starting temperature.
ii)The ambient temperatures quoted above should only be taken as aguide. For the exact SAE grade required for your vehicle, consult yourowner’s manual.
It is important to understand that the SAE viscosity grade classification systemidentifies only viscosity and indicates nothing else about the type or quality ofan oil or the service for which it is intended.
API ENGINE SERVICE CLASSIFICATIONSince 1970, the American Petroleum Institute, the American Society for Testingand Materials, and the Society of Automotive Engineers have cooperated inmaintaining the API Engine Service Classification System. This system enablesengine oils to be defined and selected on the basis of their performance char-acteristics and the type of service for which they are intended.
It should be emphasized that the API Engine Service Classification System has no connection with the SAE Engine Oil Viscosity Classification System.The latter is used to indicate only the SAE viscosities of oils. Both are neces-sary to adequately define an engine oil’s characteristics insofar as customerselection of the proper product to meet his engine’s need is concerned.

OTHER DIESEL ENGINE OIL SPECIFICATIONSSome diesel engine manufacturers have engine oil requirements that are notcompletely covered by API classifications.
DETROIT DIESELDetroit Diesel Corporation 2-stroke cycle engines require SAE 40 or 30 oils of CF-2 quality and with a sulphated ash level of no more than 1.0% weight. SAE15W-40 oils of API CF-2 quality and having a High Temperature-High Shear(HTHS) Viscosity of at least 3.7 cP are permitted as a third choice in DetroitDiesel Model 53, 71, and 92 engines (must meet 1.0 % wt ash limit). SAE15W-40 and SAE 30 oils are not permitted at all in the large Model 149engines. Note that Detroit Diesel Corporation no longer manufacturers 2-cycle engines for the commercial market.
MACK EO-MOver the years, Mack Trucks have been very active in developing heavy dutydiesel engine oil standards for the lubrication of their engines.
The MACK EO-M engine oil specification was introduced in 1998. Use of EO-Moils is mandatory in all MACK 1998 year engines, running in severe service oroperating with extended oil drain intervals.
MACK EO-M oils must be multigraded, meet the requirements of API CH-4and pass the following engine tests . . . Mack T-8E (300 h), Mack T-9 (500h) andCummins M-11 (200h).
MACK EO-M PLUSThe MACK EO-M Plus specification was introduced in 1999. Use of MACKEO-M Plus oils is mandatory in all MACK 1999 year engines, where oil drainintervals are as long as 50,000 miles or 80,000 km.MACK EO-M Plus oils must be multigraded, meet the requirements of API

CH-4 and pass the following engine tests . . . Mack T-8E & Mack T-9 withtightened limits and the Cummins M-11 extended to 300 hours.
MACK EO-N PLUSSimilarly, this specification defines a premium oil performance above and beyondthe stringent CI-4 tests, and consequently beyond the MACK EO-N specification.
MACK EO-N PREMIUM PLUS ’03This specification is required for the Mack ASET family of engines, which utilize exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and also highly recommended for allother Mack engine models, regardless of vintage. Mack EO-N Premium Plus’03 engine oils exceed both the API CI-4 and previous EO-N performancespecifications.
MACK EO-O PREMIUM PLUS ’07This specification defines the requirements for Mack engines designed tomeet the EPA 2007 on-road emission requirements. The new engines areequipped with diesel particulate filters (DPFs). A premium specification, itexceeds API CJ-4 with tighter pass limits in the Mack T-12, Cummins ISMand Cummins ISB engine tests plus the addition of the Volvo D12D test. It isequivalent to Volvo VDS-4 in Europe. EO-O Premium Plus surpasses therequirements of previous Mack specifications and therefore the oils areconsidered to be backward serviceable in older engines.

CUMMINS 20081A new premium specification for Cummins 2007 compliant engines equippedwith diesel particulate filters (DPFs). It contains no new tests beyond API CJ-4 requirements, however it has tighter pass limits on some of the enginetests. Can be used with diesel fuel containing up to 500 ppm of sulphur.
CATERPILLAR ECF-1A specification introduced in 2003, designed for the ACERT (AdvancedCombustion Emission Reduction Technology) engines. This requires oils to beeither CI-4/CH-4 +<1.3% sulphated ash + 1 pass of CAT 1P test or to be CI-4/CH-4 +1.3-1.5% sulphated ash + 2 passes of CAT 1P test.
CATERPILLAR ECF-3This specification is identical to API CJ-4 and the chief recommendation byCaterpillar for their 2007 compliant engines equipped with diesel particulatefilters (DPFs). It is also recommended in legacy on-road equipment whenused with diesel fuel up to 500 ppm of sulphur.
PASSENGER CAR, SPORT UTILITY VEHICLE, VAN ANDLIGHT TRUCK ENERGY CONSERVING OIL CLASSIFICATIONThe Energy Conserving classification for gasoline-powered passenger cars,sport utility vehicles, vans and light trucks is a supplementary classification forengine oils that have energy conserving properties . The performancerequirements for this supplementary classification are technically described in SAE J1423 and ASTM D 4485.The fuel economy obtained by individual vehicle operators using engine oilslabelled Energy Conserving may differ because of many factors, including thetype of vehicle and engine, engine manufacturing variables, the mechanicalcondition and maintenance of the engine, the oil that has been previouslyused, operating conditions and driving habits.
Energy Conserving, in conjunction with API Service Category SMAPI Service Category SM engine oils categorized as Energy Conserving areformulated to improve the fuel economy of passenger cars, SUVs, vans andlight duty trucks powered by gasoline engines. These oils have produced aFuel Economy Improvement (FEI) both at the start (FEI 1) and at the end (FEI2) of a Sequence VIB test when compared with a specific standard referenceoil. The percentage fuel improvements which must be achieved to qualify as“Energy Conserving” are listed below for the different viscosity grades.
API SERVICE CLASSIFICATION SYMBOLAPI’s Lubricants Subcommittee established the symbol illustrated below toprovide uniform identification and an improved means for the general publicto identify appropriate engine oils according to the manufacturer’s recommen-dation for the needs of a particular vehicle. The symbol is used to display theappropriate API service category or categories (upper part of the symbol), the

ILSAC CERTIFICATION SYMBOLThe ILSAC (International Lubricants Standardization and Approval Committee)certification mark, commonly referred to as “the Starburst”, is shown below.
This symbol enables the general public to identify oils which meet the warrantyrequirements of DaimlerChrysler, Ford and General Motors, as well as theJapanese automakers.The latest ILSAC specification (July 2004) is identified as ILSAC GF-4. TheAPI “Starburst” symbol only applies to 0W-XX, 5W-XX and 10W-XX viscosityoils that not only meet the GF-4 specification, but also meet API SM and theEnergy Conserving classification.The “Starburst” symbol must be displayed on the front of a motor oil container.

condition of an oil. Monitoring an oil’s condition at successive intervals, over arelatively long time period, can be used to establish:
• Presence of Undesirable Contaminants, such as:- Excess Wear Metals - Gasoline or Diesel Fuel- Coolant- Road Salt- Dirt, Sand or Dust
• Optimum Oil Change Interval
The following items are tested to determine the condition of an engine oil :
• Viscosity - is the measure of an oil’s resistance to flow. An oil can “thicken-up” due to oxidation, the presence of contaminants, or evaporation of lightcomponents. It can “thin-down” due to oil shearing or fuel dilution. Reported as cSt @ 40°C and cSt @ 100°C
• Coolant - ethylene glycol is the major component of antifreeze coolantsystems, so the presence of glycol is determined. A positive test resultindicates a defective gasket or a cracked head/block. Detection of glycolrequires immediate attention, as it reacts quickly in a hot engine to formvarnish and sludge.
• Water - presence due to condensation from low temperature engineoperation or from a leak in the cooling system.
• Dilution - the amount of gasoline or diesel present in an oil.
• Insolubles - suspended material present in the oil, due to presence of sootfrom diesel fuel combustion and contamination from airborne dust, dirt orsand.
• Total Acid Number - expresses the quantity of base required to neutralizeall the acidic constituents present in the oil. Often an indicator of howoxidized an oil has become.
• Total Base Number - measures the reserve alkalinity of an oil, which is theability of an alkali to neutralize the effect of acid formation.
• Wear or Additive Metals - The presence of the following elements isusually determined by Inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectroscopy:Aluminum, Barium, Boron, Calcium, Chromium, Copper, Iron, Magnesium,Phosphorus, Sodium, Tin and Zinc.

HEAVY DUTY ENGINE OILSCommercial and Industrial requirements for heavy duty engine oils continue tostress higher levels of turbo-charging and power outputs, and demand the useof low sulphur diesel fuel for highway fleet operations. Recent U.S. EPAregulations forced heavy duty diesel engine manufacturers to reduce NOxemissions via modification of their engine designs. This has resulted in aconsiderable increase in the soot loading of engine oils. 2007 EPA compliantlow emission engines which employ advanced exhaust aftertreatment devicessuch as diesel particulate filters (DPFs) with or without diesel oxidationcatalysts (DOCs), and increased rates of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR).Petro-Canada has responded to these developments by again improving thequality and performance of its commercial engine oils, using its HT SeverelyHydra-treated/Hydrocracked base oils and high performance additives.
These oils are non-friction modified and have high friction coefficients makingthem suitable for many wet-clutch applications.
DURON* ENGINE OILSThe DURON* line of premium quality, heavy duty engine oils, is designed toimprove engine reliability and reduce operating costs through its superior sootdispersancy and extended drain capabilities. The newly introduced DURON-Eline exceeds the requirements of API CJ-4 required for 2007 EPA compliantlow emission on-road engines. DURON multi-grades generally exceed APICI-4 Plus, Detroit Diesel 93K214, Mack EO-N Premium Plus ’03, CaterpillarECF-1 and Cummins 20078 standards required in pre-’07 on-road and off-road engines, while the single grades are suitable where API category CF isrecommended. DURON and DURON-E Heavy Duty Multigrade Engine Oilsmay be used in engines fueled by diesel, gasoline, propane or compressednatural gas (CNG).

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUIDSAutomatic Transmission Fluids (ATFs) are among the most complex lubricants on themarket today. Containing as many as 15 components, ATFs represent a carefulbalance of properties needed to meet the unique requirements of automatictransmissions. They may be described as viscometrically similar to SAE 0W-20 gradeoils, but with exceptionally good low temperature properties. ATFs contain some ofthe same additives as engine oils, but have additional components to give specialfrictional properties and exceptional oxidation resistance. Their excellent lowtemperature fluidity and antiwear properties, enable automatic transmission fluids toperform well as hydraulic fluids in industrial equipment and air compressors, providedthat water separation is not required.These fluids perform five basic functions:� Transmit hydrodynamic energy in the torque converter.� Transmit hydrostatic energy in hydraulic logic control circuits and
servomechanisms.� Lubricate shaft bearings, thrust bearings, and gears. � Transmit sliding friction energy in bands and clutches.� Act as a heat transfer medium controlling automatic transmission operating
temperatures.Automatic transmission fluid specifications are in a state of flux and now there areseveral types of fluid specified for North American automatic transmissions. The mostwidely marketed fluid by far, is DEXRON®-III/ MERCON® ATF, a friction modified fluid,recommended for transmission top-up or refill, by most automobile manufacturers forlate model vehicles (prior to 2006). For 2006 model year and onward General Motorsvehicles, the required fluid is DEXRON®-VI. Ford Motor Company requires all itsautomatic transmissions, to be serviced with MERCON®V fluid (except whereMERCON® SP is specified). Ford Type F, a non friction-modified fluid, is stillrequired for 1979 and earlier Ford or other older import cars. DaimlerChryslernow recommends ATF+4® fluid be used in their transmissions for all model years.
PETRO-CANADA ATF D3MPetro-Canada ATF D3M demonstrates outstanding oxidative and thermal stability,giving extremely long service life under severe operating conditions. The fluid’soperating range is between –40°C and +160°C. It has been tested extensively andmeets General Motors specification 6297M and Ford specification M2C185A. ATFD3M is fully qualified for use in transmissions where a fluid meeting the formerDEXRON®-III(H), -III(G), -II(E), or MERCON® specifications were recommended.Petro-Canada ATF D3M is designed to meet the severe requirements of the AllisonC-4 and V-730D specifications for transmission/torque converter fluids. It also meets the Caterpillar T0-2 specification and is approved for use in ClarkPowershift Transmissions down to –30°C. It is also approved for use in transmissionsmanufactured by Renke.Petro-Canada ATF D3M also acts as an excellent hydraulic fluid and it surpasses theperformance of most top quality antiwear hydraulic fluids or motor oils. It is alsosuitable for use with Sundstrand, Rexnord, Vickers and Hagglunds-Denison (exceptcertain axial piston) hydraulic pumps.Petro-Canada ATF D3M is superior to 10W motor oils commonly used in mobileequipment hydraulic systems, because it has a better cold starting performance,superior materials compatibility and a greater resistance to oxidation. It may be used inpower steering units specifying a DEXRON®-III or II type fluid. It is dyed red for easyidentification.

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
AUTOMOTIVE GEAR OILSAutomotive gear oils protect gears, bearings and cross-shafts from prematurefailure, assure reliable equipment operation and increase transmission anddifferential service life. Automotive gear oils achieve this by performing thefollowing three vital functions:– Minimizing friction and wear
A fluid film of oil must be maintained between gear teeth at all times toprevent metal-to-metal contact between gear surfaces under extremepressure conditions. Hypoid gear drives are especially tough systems tolubricate, since the gear contact motion severely shears the oil with slidingas well as rolling motions and the gears are severely shock loaded.
– Providing oxidation stability A gear oil should resist degradation and sludging so that harmful viscosityIncrease is minimized over time.
– Cooling the gear surfaces Gear components are prevented from destructive over-heating, bycirculating oil through the bearing and gear mesh zones, where frictionalheat is generated.
– Inhibiting rust and corrosion A gear oil must be non-corrosive to bronze, and protect steel surfacesagainst rust, especially when water contamination is present.
– Maintaining long clutch life and preventing seal leaksClutches used in wet brakes and manual transmissions can become “glazed”and lose their function, if gear oils decompose at high temperatures. Gearoils must, therefore, be thermally stable. Undesirable decompositionproducts can also coat seals with carbon, causing leakage.

2. Additional low-temperature viscosity requirements may be appropriate for fluids intended for use in light dutysynchronized manual transmissions. See text.
3. Using ASTM D445.
4. Limit must also be met after testing in CEC L-45-A-99, Method C (20 hours).
SAE viscosity selection should be based on the minimum and maximumservice temperatures. Today’s most commonly used gear lubricants are multi-graded (e.g. 75W-90, 80W-90 and 85W-140). These fluids meet both the lowand high temperature requirements for the combined grades.For example, an 80W-90 oil must have the low temperature fluidity of an 80Was well as the thickness of a 90 grade at higher temperatures.

API SERVICE DESIGNATIONSAutomotive gear lubricant performance is defined by the type of service it canbe expected to perform satisfactorily. The API service designations weredeveloped to assist manufacturers and end-users select gear lubricants for avariety of operating conditions.
The API service designations range from GL-1 to GL-5 and describe gear lubricants in terms of general type, severity of service and application. Thefollowing table lists these designations.
The most commonly specified and available type of automotive gear lubricantin North America is API GL-5. In Europe and other parts of the world, APIGL-4 oils are used as frequently as API GL-5.

AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIALSIn conventional differentials the same torque is applied to both wheels, regardless of traction conditions. Thus, if one wheel is on a surface with lowenough traction for the applied torque to exceed the traction, that wheel willbreak loose and spin until it is revolving at twice the speed of the ring gear andthe other wheel has stopped turning. All the power will then be delivered to thespinning wheel and no power will be transmitted to the wheel with traction.Limited slip or torque biasing, and locking type differentials have been developed to overcome this.
Limited slip differentials found on passenger cars all operate on the same principle. Clutches are inserted between the side gears and the case. Whenthe clutches are engaged they lock the side gears to the case and prevent thedifferential action. Either stacked plate or cone type clutches are used for thispurpose.
Torque biasing or locking differentials are used on trucks and off-highway . Some locking differentials lock and unlock automatically, while others arearranged so the operator can lock them when full traction is needed at bothdriving wheels.
Petro-Canada TRAXON* E and TRAXON are generally recommended fortop-up in limited slip differentials, see page 78.
MACK GO-J & GO-J PLUS SPECIFICATIONS(SAE 75W-90, 80W-90, 80W-140 & 85W-140 grades)
Manufacturers of trucks and components play an important role in designingthe quality and performance level of the lubricants available to their customers.The truck gear performance requirements that have become quite important inthe past few years are the up-graded API GL-5 requirements .... Mack GO-Jand Mack GO-J Plus. Mack GO-J is designed to deliver 250,000 mile /2 yeardrain intervals and Mack GO-J Plus 500,000 mile/3 year drain intervals,both in over-the-road service. To qualify for a Mack GO-J or Mack GO-J Pluslisting, an oil must pass all the tests required for a MIL-PRF-2105E approval,and in addition satisfy three further tests:
• The Mack Power Divider Snap Test (MAT 700 WI), which measures an oil’sability to minimize noise and reduce the wear of cams and wedges in aMack Power Divider differential.
• The Mack Transmission Cycling Test (ASTM D5579), which measures theability of an oil to prevent glazing and clogging of gear synchronizer plates,requires a Mack GO-J oil to provide satisfactory shifting after 65,000 cyclesand a Mack GO-J Plus, extended drain oil, to provide satisfactory shiftingafter 97,500 cycles.
Mack Truck requires these additional performance levels above API GL-5,because of the continuing increase in truck engine power. Truck drive-lines inthe late 1990’s handle power loads that are nearly three times what they werein the early 1960’s, when API GL-5 was first developed.

INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS
INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS
Business today places heavy demands on industrial plant and machinery. Weexpect equipment to operate at temperatures between -50°C and 150°Cwithout losing production or increasing maintenance costs. Notwithstandingthese extremes of temperature, machines today are operated under heavierloads, run at higher speeds, with smaller oil reservoirs and at longerlubricating intervals than ever before.
Proper lubrication is vital to any operation and is determined by the “Four Rs”:
• Right Lubricant• Right Amount• Right Place• Right Time
Your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) together with a Petro-CanadaLubricants Representative or a Technical Services Advisor can assist you indetermining the “Four Rights” for your equipment or machinery.

INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS
VISCOSITY CLASSIFICATION OF INDUSTRIAL OILSIt used to be the practice in North America to define the viscosity of industriallubricating oils in Saybolt Universal Seconds (SUS) at reference temperaturesof 100°F and 210°F. However, there is now world-wide acceptance of theInternational Organization for Standardization’s (ISO) system for viscositymeasurement in centistokes (cSt) at 40°C and 100°C.
ADVANTAGES OF ISO VISCOSITY GRADES
� International acceptance benefits customers, manufacturers and marketers.� The lubricant grade recommended by the equipment manufacturer is the
same as the number in the product name.� Conversion from one viscosity measurement to another is virtually
eliminated.� The number in the product name for most products represents the viscosity
of an industrial oil.
Automotive engine and gear oils are not involved in the ISO measurementsystem. They continue to be described by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) viscosity classifications (see Automotive Lubricants Section).
The table below shows the kinematic viscosity limits for each ISO ViscosityGrade. Each viscosity grade is 50% higher in viscosity than the preceding viscosity grade. These limits are set at a 10 percent tolerance level above andbelow the mid-point of a grade. Any product with a viscosity outside these tolerance levels is not a recognized ISO Viscosity Grade.

VISCOSITY COMPARISONS
Viscosities designated by various organizations may be compared as shownin the table opposite. This is strictly a viscosity comparison and should not beconstrued as a quality level comparison. To summarize:-
ISO VG – is viscosity measurement in centistokes (cSt) at 40°C.
AGMA – viscosity grades as designated by the American GearManufacturers Association.
SAE – Society of Automotive Engineers viscosity measurement forautomotive engine and gear oils e.g. SAE 30, SAE 90, etc.
Saybolt – These units are in S.U.S. and were used by variousrefiners/blenders to specify viscosity at 100°F or 210°F.
How to use the chart:
For instance, if a manufacturer requires an SAE 30 oil for a piece ofequipment, go to the SAE viscosity column and follow across horizontally tothe left to read an ISO VG of 100.

INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS
LUBRICANTS HANDLING & STORAGE
Petro-Canada’s lubricating oils and greases are the result of considerableresearch work and, after careful manufacture and delivery, are as good for theirintended use as we can make them. However, during storage it is important toguard against contamination, which can drastically reduce the performance andlife of a lubricant. Numerous studies have shown that both water and dirt canlessen the life of bearings and other components. Preventing contaminationduring storage has a direct pay-back in terms of optimum lubricant performance,longer lubricant life and reduced maintenance costs.
INSIDE STORAGE
Preferably lubricants should be stored inside. However, even then there arecertain precautions that should be followed:
� The temperature of the storage area should remain moderate and not besubject to wide fluctuations.
� The storage area should be located away from industrial contamination,such as fumes or dust.
� The storage area and dispensing equipment should be clean and be part ofa regular cleaning schedule.
� Labels, stencils, markings on containers and dispensing equipment shouldbe kept legible to avoid cross-contamination or incorrect application.
� Detergent-containing engine oils, hydraulic oils, turbine oils and extremepressure (EP) oils should use separate dispensing equipment.
OUTSIDE STORAGE
If outside storage is unavoidable, then the following precautions should be followed:
� Ensure that the bungs on drums are screwed in tight.� Store drums horizontally, with bungs below the oil level (i.e. at 3 o’clock and
9 o’clock). This prevents the seals from drying out and tending to leak. Forthe same reason, drums stored upright on pallets should stand upsidedown.
� Drums stored on their sides should be clear of the ground and preferablyrest on wooden or steel beams. They may be stacked three high if wedgedproperly to prevent movement.
� Stacking often results in the bottom drums never being used, so the use of arack is preferred.
� Do not store drums on end with the bungs on top. Rain water collects on thedrum head and is drawn into the oil when the drum breathes duringtemperature cycles. If drums must be stored this way, they should be tiltedfirst by standing on edge (say on a 2 x 4 piece of lumber). When oil is drawnfrom the drum, the head should be wiped clean first.
� Drums preferably should be covered with a tarpaulin to protect them fromthe elements.
� To minimize contamination and the effects of weathering, time spent inoutdoor storage should be kept to a minimum.
� Outdoor storage locations should be away from dusty areas such asquarries or unpaved roads. Opening drums in such conditions willcontaminate the contents.

INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS
� Smaller package sizes (e.g. pails) should be covered, examined regularlyand kept to a minimum to provide a quick turnover.
HANDLING
Lubricating oils and greases are a relatively harmless class of material. Never-theless, care should be taken to avoid skin contact and inhalation of oil mists.Petro-Canada provides Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) on all of itsproducts and these are available from your Sales Representative or CustomerService Representative (CSR).
Some general guidelines for handling lubricating oils and greases follow:
� Use protective equipment to avoid skin contact.� Quickly remove any product that does get on the skin.� Do not use gasoline, kerosene or similar solvents to remove lubricants from
the skin as they take the natural oils from the skin and cause dryness.� Use only mild soap and warm water or a recommended hand cleaner to
remove lubricating oil and grease from the skin. Dry using clean hand towels.� Wash hands and arms at the end of the working day and before eating.� Remove any contaminated clothing and clean thoroughly before re-use.� Avoid breathing in oil mists.� Clean-up lubricating oil and grease spills immediately and dispose of them
according to environmental guidelines.� Obtain medical advice concerning any potential health problems.
PRODUCT SHELF LIFE – LUBRICATING OILS
The performance properties of liquid lubricants (oils) will remain intact formany years provided they have been in protected storage and not exposed tosevere high/low temperature cycles. Generally, the simpler the oil formulation,the longer the oil will remain satisfactory.
• Base Oils, Process Oils and Other Non-Additized OilsThese may be stored indefinately under protected conditions without any significant deterioration in performance. Slight changes in appearance /colour may occur. If they are used as part of a special manufacturing process or application, the product properties should be reconfirmed if over 3 years old.
• Hydraulic Food Grade / Compressor / Turbine and General PurposeLubricating OilsThese oils contain low, but very effective additive treatments. They may bestored for three (3) years under protected conditions* without any significantdeterioration in performance.
• Hydraulic Engine / Motor OIls and Transmission OilsAlthough these oils contain high additive contents, they are extremely stable.They may be stored for five (5) years under protected conditions* without anysignficant deterioration in performance. However, the industry performancerequirements (API) for engine oils and for transmission oils (OEM perfor-mance standards, i.e. DEXRON/MERCON) are changing rapidly. Hence an

INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANTS
engine or transmission oil that has been stored for five (5) years or longer,while it may still meet its original performance specifications, may not meet thelatest industry requirements.
• Industrial and Automotive Gear OilsThese highly additized formulations can occasionally exhibit some long terminstability. Under protected conditions* they should only be stored for three(3) years. In addition, as automotive gear oil specifications occasionallychange, ‘old’ product should be checked to ensure its specifications still meetthe latest industry standards and/or equipment requirements.
• Neat (Non-Emulsifiable) Metal Working Fluids / Way LubricantsThese formulations are often quite delicately balanced. Hence under protected conditions* they should only be stored for two (2) years.
• Soluable (Emulsifiable) Metal Working Fluids (Cutsol & Cutsol HD)These products should only be stored for one (1) year.
Storage under unprotected conditions can result in water ingress whichcauses the oil to become ‘milky’ or form a ‘mayonnaise’ and can also causerust formation/corrosion in metal containers.
If you locate a significant volume of a ‘date expired’ product, please consult aTechnical Service Advisor who will arrange to have it tested so see if it is stillsatisfactory for use.
*Protected conditions: indoor or covered storage with no freeze/thaw cycles.

COMPRO XL-R - RECIPROCATING AIRCOMPRESSOR FLUID(Formerly RCF-1000)
COMPRO XL-R has been specifically developed for single and multi-stagereciprocating air compressors, particularly those with high air-dischargetemperatures. COMPRO XL-R is designed to extend equipment life, increasefire safety and reduce maintenance costs compared to competitive mineral oilbased products.
COMPRO XL-R is recommended for use in both the cylinder and crankcase ofair compressors, where it reduces varnish and carbon build up on valves andintercoolers. COMPRO XL-R matches or exceeds the service intervals ofcompetitive diester lubricants, but without their obnoxious odours. It is alsofully compatible with petroleum oils and diesters, although significant dilutionwill reduce its performance.
COMPRO XL-R is recommended for use in reciprocating compressors to amaximum of 2,000 hours at air discharge temperatures up to 150°C.
COMRPO XL-R meets the requirements of DIN 51506 VDL.

INTRODUCTIONGreases are designed to lubricate bearing and gear applications where acontinuous oil supply cannot be retained. Grease is a solid to semi-solidmaterial produced by the dispersion of a thickening agent in a liquid lubricant.In many cases, specialty additives are also used to enhance the performanceof the product. When selecting grease for an application, capabilities such asoperating temperatures, water resistance, oxidation stability, etc. are importantconsiderations. The grease’s characteristics, including viscosity andconsistency, are also key factors to consider.
The most important factors affecting the properties and characteristics of agrease are:• Amount and type of thickener• Oil viscosity and physical characteristics• Additives
A grease is expected to:• Reduce friction and wear• Provide corrosion protection• Seal bearings from water and contaminants• Resist leakage, dripping and throw-off• Resist change in structure or consistency during service• Maintain mobility under conditions of application• Be compatible with seals• Tolerate or repel moisture
REGULAR GREASERegular (or simple) greases are primarily made through the reaction of a metalhydroxide with a fatty acid. The metal hydroxide is typically lithium, calcium oraluminum and has an important impact on the characteristics of the grease.
Simple lithium greases provide good temperature capabilities with good waterresistance. Simple calcium greases provide good water resistance, but don’tperform as well at high temperatures. Simple aluminum greases have inherentstringiness making them a good choice for semi-fluid greases and applicationswhere adhesion is of primary importance.
COMPLEX GREASEComplex greases are made with two or more carboxylic acids similar to a reg-ular grease except that the thickener contains two dissimilar fatty acids, one ofwhich is the complexing agent. This imparts good high temperature character-istics to the final product along with the characteristics of the base metalhydroxide. Common complex greases include lithium complex, aluminum com-plex and calcium complex.
Calcium sulphonate complex grease – Calcium sulphonate complex greaseis miceller in nature rather than a complex soap per se.

LUBRICATING OILThe high percentage of oil by weight (75-95%) in a grease requires the oil tobe of high quality and proper viscosity for the intended application. A lightviscosity or synthetic oils are normally used for low temperature, low load andhigh speed applications. Conversely a heavy viscosity oil is generally used forhigh temperature, high load and slow speed applications.
ADDITIVES
The most common additives found in grease are as follows:
� Oxidation Inhibitors – prolong the life of a grease� EP Agents – guard against scoring and galling� Anti-Corrosion Agents – protect metal against attack from water,
sulphides or corrosive elements� Anti-Wear Agents – prevent abrasion and metal to metal contact
GREASE DEFINITIONS
� Consistency – is the degree of hardness of a grease and may vary consider-ably with temperature. This has been classified by the National LubricatingGrease Institute (NLGI) into the following categories:
NLGI GRADE PENETRATION @ 25°C (1/10th mm)000 445 - 47500 400 - 4300 355 - 3851 310 - 3402 265 - 2953 220 - 2504 175 - 2055 130 - 1606 85 - 115
� Shear Stability – is the ability of a grease to resist a change in consistencyduring mechanical working. Under high rates of shear, grease structurestend to change in consistency (usually become softer).
� Oil Separation – is the percentage of oil which separates from the greaseunder static (eg. storage) conditions. It cannot predict separation tendenciesin use under dynamic conditions.
� High Temperature Stability – is the ability of a grease to retain its consistency, structure and performance at temperatures above 125°C.

GREASE COMPATIBILITYOccasionally, grease substitution in an application may be necessary tocorrect problems arising from the original product in service. If the thickeners areincompatible, the mixture will fall short of the properties of the individual greases.
It is strongly advised that, in all cases, the old grease be purged or cleanedout from the system before a new one is introduced. However, compatibilitybetween greases is temperature dependent. As the temperature rises, theproblems associated with incompatibility also increase. The following chartindicates the compatibilities of major Petro-Canada greases. With competitors’products, it is strongly advised to treat them as incompatible unless strongevidence exists to the contrary.

GREASE SHELF LIFEThe shelf life of a grease is affected by the type and amount of thickener used,consistency of the grease, manufacturing method employed and theformulation complexity. Generally Straight Lithium, Lithium Complex andCalcium Complex greases remain stable for a long time.Aluminum Complexgreases tend to set and harden, but remain stable. Bentone and Bariumgreases tend to soften on aging. Based on these observations:� The shelf life of all Petro-Canada greases, EXCEPT those of NLGI grade #0
or softer (i.e. #00 & #000), is five (5) years.� The following greases have shelf lives of two (2) years.

APPLYING GREASE
The over-packing and over-greasing of bearings accounts for more failures thanany other factor. Excess grease in a bearing cavity increases internal friction, whichin turn raises the bearing temperature above the dropping point of the grease. Thiscauses oil separation and eventually lack of lubrication. When packing a split housing pillow block bearing ensure that the grease cavity is only one-third full.
Re-greasing intervals are determined from:
� severity of service � environment � condition of seals � shock loading
The following chart provides a guide to re-greasing intervals and the amountof grease to be applied.

FUELS & REFINERY PRODUCTS
FUELS & REFINERY PRODUCTS
In addition to our world scale Lubricants base oil manufacturing and blendingplant in Mississauga, Ontario, Petro-Canada operates two modern refineriesin:
� Montreal, Quebec� and Edmonton, Alberta.
Both refineries produce gasolines and diesel fuels, as Petro-Canada refineries produce certain specialty products such as aviation fuels, solvents,petrochemical feedstocks and asphalts.
GASOLINES
Petro-Canada’s branded gasolines come in 4 octane grades:
87 octane regular: RegularClean89 octane mid-grade: PlusClean91 octane premium: SuperClean94 octane super premium: SuperClean 94 (available in Montreal, Vancouver
Area and Victoria)
While 87 octane RegularClean is satisfactory for 75% of all vehicles, about25% of Canadian vehicles require a higher octane fuel for proper performancefor routine operation or during heavy load applications (towing, etc.). Mostservice stations offer 3 grades of gasoline to meet virtually all customerneeds. Stations in Montreal, the Vancouver area and Victoria also carrySuperClean 94, a 94 octane super premium gasoline. The primary purpose ofthe octane quality of gasolines is to prevent pre-ignition of fuels, allowingproper combustion of the fuel and preventing knocking or pinging, which maylead to poor performance and engine damage.
TACTROL™ DEPOSIT CONTROL ADDITIVE(GASOLINE DETERGENT)
TACTROL™ is Petro-Canada’s own unique and exclusive Deposit ControlAdditive formulation that acts as a detergent to prevent the build up of harm-ful deposits and clean-up deposits in fuel injectors and intake valves. Mostvehicle manufacturers recommend using a gasoline with a detergent, andPetro-Canada’s branded gasolines meet and exceed this requirement.
All of Petro-Canada branded gasolines contain increasing levels of Tactrol™,from a basic level in RegularClean and PlusClean to higher levels in Super-Clean and SuperClean 94. SuperClean and SuperClean 94. Basic Tactrol™levels in RegularClean and PlusClean will keep a fuel system clean, whilehigher levels in SuperClean and SuperClean 94 will remove deposits from fuelinjectors and intake valves.

WinterGas
During winter months (in most of Canada), Petro-Canada offers WinterGasfor superior cold weather protection and performance. WinterGas is speciallyformulated for winter conditions, to allow easier starting in very cold weather.It contains a de-icer to minimize the possibility of fuel line freeze-up due tocondensation in vehicle fuel tanks, and, of course, it contains TACTROL™, tokeep fuel systems clean.
Marine Gasoline
Petro-Canada’s Marine Gasoline on the West Coast of Canada is an 89octane product which should meet the needs of most marine applications. It isgenerally dyed red.
DIESEL FUELS
All of Petro-Canada’s regular diesel fuels are seasonally adjusted – to meetlow temperature operability requirements for different geographic areas. Thefuel is designed for 97.5% of low winter temperatures that may be encoun-tered, based on 25 years of historic temperature data. Seasonal adjustmentoccurs as frequently as bi-monthly, through periods of seasonal transition.
All diesel fuel sold for ‘on-road’ use is low sulphur diesel fuel – with a maxi-mum of 1515 parts per million (ppm) sulphur, to minimize diesel engine emis-sions and comply with federal environmental regulations. Most of the ‘off-road’diesel fuel that Petro-Canada sells is also low sulphur, but is not guaranteed tobe 15 ppm maximum sulphur content.
All Petro-Canada diesel fuels have suitable lubricity for both new and olderdiesel engines. “Lubricity” is the ability of a diesel fuel to lubricate fuel-wettedparts of fuel pumps and fuel injectors to minimize wear. All low sulphur dieselfuel is treated with lubricity additive to ensure that it has adequate lubricity toprotect equipment from undue wear.
Petro-Pass is Petro-Canada’s chain of truck stops, offering fuel, supplies andfacilities for truckers across Canada. SuperPass is Petro-Canada’s commer-cial credit card, fuel and information management system, and may be usedacross Canada and at many locations in the United States. More informationis available at Petro Canada’s internet web site:
www.petro-canada.ca
Petro-Canada also offers specialty diesel fuels at selected locations acrossCanada, such as No. 1 Low Sulphur Diesel for urban buses, undergroundmines and low temperature applications, and Diesel 50 for very cold applica-tions (down to -40°C) in northern and arctic locations.

Jet A-1 is a kerosene-type fuel. F-34 is Jet A-1with De-icer (fuel system icing inhibitor) and CI (corrosion inhibitor) and is theversion of Jet A used by the Military. Jet A-1 and F-34 are available at theEdmonton Truck Rack.
Jet B, Jet B-DI and Jet F-40 are turbine fuels produced at Edmonton Refinery. Jet B is a ‘gasoline-like’ fuel, composed mostly of naphtha (wide-cutfuel) and is used by helicopters and aircraft in the north (because of it’s easeof engine starting, especially in cold weather). Jet B-DI, is Jet B with De-icer(fuel system icing inhibitor) and F-40 is Jet B with De-icer (fuel system icinginhibitor) and CI (corrosion inhibitor). Jet B, Jet B-DI and Jet F-40 are availableat the Edmonton Truck Rack.
Aviation Gasoline 100LL is also produced at Edmonton Refinery. Thisproduct is a high octane, leaded fuel designed for high compression ratiopiston aero engines. Many multiple-engine planes require this fuel. Becausethis is a leaded fuel it is restricted to aviation use. AvGas 100LL is available atthe Edmonton Truck Rack.
Special Training is required for the loading of aviation fuels and is available atthe Edmonton Terminal.
ALTERNATIVE FUELS
Propane (automotive, HD-5 quality) is sold at many Petro-Canada service stations.
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) / Natural Gas for Vehicles (NGV) is soldat selected service stations in the Vancouver area. Petro-Canada is a majorCanadian producer of natural gas, and sells significant volumes of naturalgas into the bulk wholesale market.
Ethanol Blended gasoline (E-10) with up to 10% ethyl alcohol has varyingavailably across the country. It is sold at selected bulk plant sites in south-western Ontario. In the Montreal Area, SuperClean 94 contains ethyl alcoholand starting in the Spring of 2007, Regular gasoline in this area may alsocontain ethanol. Saskatchewan and Ontario (starting in the Spring of 2007)have mandated the use of ethanol in gasoline and regular gasoline in theseareas may contain ethanol. Pumps will be clearly labeled if the gasolinecontains ethyl alcohol.

ISO FUEL CLASSIFICATION
A simpified description is appended overleaf.
For further information on Petro-Canada Fuels or Specialty Products pleasecontact your local Petro-Canada representative.
This section gives a simplified description of ISO 8216, Classification ofPetroleum Fuels.
Under the international ISO standards, all petroleum fuels are designated bythe letter “F”. The ‘code’ to describe fuels consists of the initials “ISO” followedby “F” and the specific category of fuel consisting of 3 letters. The first of the 3letters is the general category described in the following paragraph.
Within the class of petroleum, there are 5 categories defined according to thetype of fuel listed in decreasing order of volatility:
G: Gaseous fuels, generally natural gas.L: Liquefied petroleum gases, generally propane, butane and
mixtures of the two.D: Distillate fuels (meaning that they have been distilled from crude
oil), Sub-groups:D(L): gasoline – light, highly volatile fuels with low flash points
(hence, highly flammable); flash point below ambienttemperature.
D(M): middle distillate fuels, including normal diesel fuels, furn-ace fuels, kerosene and stove oil; flash point above 38°C
D(H): heavy distillate, such as heavy gas oil, may contain someresidue; flash point usually above 60°C.
R: Residual fuels – heavy fuels such as ‘bunker’ which contain theheaviest components of crude oil.
C: Petroleum coke.
Thus a gasoline would have the following designation: ISO-F-D(L)-yy, where“yy” would be a specific type of gasoline.
MARINE DIESEL FUELS(ISO 8217) have the designation: ISO-F-DMx-yy, or ISO-F-RMx-yy, where DMstands for Diesel Marine, and RM stands for Residual Marine.
DMX: marine diesel fuel, for emergency purposes.DMA: marine diesel fuel, general purpose, contains no residuum.DMB: marine diesel fuel, general purpose, may contain trace. DMC: marine diesel fuel, general purpose, contains trace residuum.
RMA: RMB, RMD, RME, RMF, RMG, RMH, RMK: various residualmarine diesel fuels.
The number following these codes represents the maximum kinematic viscos-ity at 50°C. For example: ISO-F-RMA 30 and ISO-F-RMB 30 are two residualmarine fuels with maximum 30 cst viscosity at 50°C, but differ in other charac-teristics such as maximum density and maximum pour point.

AGMA – American Gear Manufacturers Association, one of whose activities isthe establishment and promotion of standards for gear lubricants.
ANTI-FOAM AGENT – (see FOAM INHIBITOR)
ANTI-WEAR AGENT – An additive that minimizes wear caused by metal-to-metal contact during conditions of mild boundary lubrication (e.g. stops andstarts, oscillating motion). The additive reacts chemically with, and forms a filmon, metal surfaces under normal operating conditions.
ANTI-OXIDANT – (see OXIDATION INHIBITOR)

In this capacity, it serves to clear information,conduct research, improve marketing conditions, etc. One of the Institute’sactivities has been the development of the API SERVICE CLASSIFICATIONSfor crankcase oils, and rules for Base Oil Interchange, which give rise to BaseOil Groups I-V.
ASH CONTENT – non-combustible residue of a lubricating oil (also fuels)determined in accordance with ASTM D582 – also D874 (sulphated ash).Since some detergents are metallic salts or compounds, the percentage ofash has been considered to have a relationship to detergency. Interpretationscan be grossly distorted, however, for the following reasons: 1. Detergencydepends on the properties of the base oil as well as on the additive. Somecombinations of base oil and additive are much more effective than others.2. Detergents vary considerably in their potency, and some leave more ashthan others. Organic detergents have been developed, in fact, that leave noash at all. 3. Some of the ash may be contributed by additives other thandetergents. 4. There appears to be a limit to the effective concentration ofdetergent. Nothing is gained by exceeding this limit, and a superabundance ofdetergent may actually reduce cleanliness.

BOUNDARY LUBRICATION – a state of lubrication characterized by partialcontact between two metal surfaces, and partial separation of the surfaces by afluid film of lubricant. Due to metal-metal contact, severe wear can take placeduring boundary lubrication. Specific additives in certain lubricants will minimizewear under boundary lubrication conditions. These additives prevent excessivefriction and scoring by providing a film on the metal surface. There are varyingdegrees of boundary lubrication, and they are met with various additive types.For the milder conditions, OILINESS ADDITIVES may be used. These are polarmaterials that are oil soluble and have an exceptionally high affinity for metalsurfaces. Plating out on these surfaces in a thin but durable film, oiliness additivesgive protection under some conditions that are too severe for a straight mineraloil. In addition, COMPOUNDED OILS which are formulated with polar fatty oils,are sometimes used for this purpose. Another class of boundary lubricants isthat which contains ANTI-WEAR ADDITIVES. These additives, typically zinc-phosphorus compounds, reduce the wear of metal surfaces, as distinct fromreducing the possibility of scoring. High quality engine oils contain anti-wearadditives to protect the heavily loaded parts of modern engines, particularlyvalve trains. The more severe cases of boundary lubrication are defined asEXTREME PRESSURE (EP) conditions. These conditions are met with lubricantswhich contain EP additives. Under the less severe EP conditions, as in certainworm gear or shock loaded applications, a mild EP additive such as sulphurizedfatty oil may be used. For somewhat more severe EP conditions, as occurs inmany industrial gear sets, a moderate EP additive package is used. Under themost severe extreme pressure conditions, as occurs in automotive hypoid gearsand in many rolling mill applications, for example, more active EP compoundscontaining sulphur, chlorine and/or phosphorus may be used. At the very highlocal temperatures associated with metal contact, these additives combinechemically with the metal to form a surface film. Not only is this film effective inreducing friction, but it prevents the welding of opposing asperities (high points)and the consequent scoring that is destructive to sliding surfaces.
BROOKFIELD VISCOSITY – viscosity, in centipoises, as determined on theBrookfield viscometer (ASTM D2983). The operating principle for the Brook-field viscometer is the torque resistance on a spindle rotating in the fluid beingtested. Although Brookfield viscosities are most frequently associated with lowtemperature properties of gear oils and transmission fluids, they are in factdetermined for many other types of lubricant, e.g. white oils.
CARBON RESIDUE – percent of coked material remaining after a sample oflubricating oil has been exposed to high temperatures under ASTM MethodD189 (Conradson) or D524 (Ramsbottom). While carbon residue may havesignificance in the evaluation of roll oils and pneumatic-tool lubricants, it shouldbe interpreted with caution. There may be little similarity between conditions oftest and conditions of service. As far as the effects of residue on performancego, moreover, many consider that the type of carbon is of greater significancethan the quantity.
CENTISTOKE (cSt) – (see VISCOSITY)

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
CHANNELLING – formation of a “groove” in grease (or in oil too viscous toflow readily under existing conditions). Channels are cut by the motion of alubricated element, such as a gear or the rolling member of an anti-frictionbearing. The amount of channelling can be controlled to a large extent by theconsistency or viscosity of the lubricant. While some degree of channelling isdesirable to prevent excessive churning of the lubricant, particularly in high-speed rolling element bearings, a channel so permanent as to precludefurther movement of lubricant to the contacting surfaces might cause equipment failure due to lack of lubricant.
CLOUD POINT – (see POUR POINT)
COMPOUNDED OIL – a blend of petroleum oil with small amounts of fatty orsynthetic fatty oils is referred to as COMPOUNDING. Compounded oils areused for certain wet applications to prevent washing-off of the lubricant fromthe metal surfaces. The fatty materials enable the oil to combine physicallywith the water instead of being displaced by it. Cylinder oils for wet steamapplications and for some air compressors are compounded. Because thefatty material imparts a strong affinity for metal surfaces, moreover, com-pounded oils are frequently used for applications in which lubricity or extraload-carrying ability are needed. They are not generally recommended, however, for service that requires high oxidation stability. (See BOUNDARYLUBRICATION).
COPPER STRIP CORROSION – evaluation of a product’s tendency to corrode copper or copper alloys, ASTM D130. Test results are based on thematching of corrosion stains. Non corrosiveness is not to be confused withrust inhibiting, which deals with the protection of a surface from some contaminant, such as water, rather than from the oil itself.
CORROSION INHIBITOR – a lubricant additive for protecting surfaces againstchemical attack from contaminants in the lubricant. The most common typesof corrosion inhibitors generally react chemically with the metal surfaces to beprotected, thus forming an inert film in these areas.
DEMULSIBILITY – test time required for a specified oil-water emulsion tobreak, using ASTM D1401 test method. Highly refined, unadditized mineral oilshave inherently good demulsibility. Even after violently shaking an oil/water mix-ture, the oil separates and rises rapidly to the top of the water. This is true alsoof other oils formulated for good demulsibility. It is a desirable characteristic ofoils such as circulating oils that must separate from water readily. Demulsibility isthus a measure of a lubricating oil’s ability to separate from water, an importantconsideration in the maintenance of many circulating oil systems.
DETERGENT – an additive in crankcase oils generally combined with disper-sant additives. A detergent chemically neutralizes acidic contaminants in theoil before they become insoluble and fall out of the oil, forming sludge. Neutralor basic compounds are created which can remain in suspension in the oil.DISPERSANTS operate to break up insoluble contaminant particles alreadyformed. Particles are kept finely divided so that they can remain “dispersed” orcolloidally suspended in the oil.
DISPERSANT – (see DETERGENT)
DROPPING POINT – the temperature at which a grease changes from semi-solid to a liquid state under test conditions. It may be considered an indicationof the high temperature limitation for application purposes.
Handbook Canadian 2/27/07 8:43 AM Page 181
1829
EMULSION – a mechanical mixture of two mutually insoluble liquids (such asoil and water). Emulsification may or may not be desirable, depending on circumstances. Soluble cutting oils are designed with an emulsifier to maintain astable emulsion of oil and water for lubricating and cooling machining operations.
EP AGENT – an additive to improve the extreme pressure properties of alubricant. (see BOUNDARY LUBRICATION)
FIRE POINT – (see FLASH POINT)
FLASH POINT – minimum temperature of a petroleum product or other combustible fluid at which vapour is produced at a rate sufficient to yield acombustible mixture. Specifically, it is the lowest sample temperature at whichthe air vapour mixture will “flash” in the presence of a small flame. Flash pointmay be determined by the following ASTM Methods: CLOSED CUP (coveredsample container): D93 “Flash Point by Pensky-Martens Closed Test” for fueloils – also for cutback asphalts and other viscous materials and suspensionsof solids: OPEN CUP (uncovered sample container): D92 “Flash and FirePoints by Cleveland Open Cup: for lubricating oils. As indicated, this lastmethod provides also for the determination of a FIRE POINT. Fire point is theminimum sample temperature at which vapour is produced at a sufficient rateto sustain combustion. Specifically, it is the lowest sample temperature atwhich the ignited vapour persists in burning for at least 5 seconds. Since thefire points of commercial petroleum oils ordinarily run about 30°C above thecorresponding flash point, they are often omitted from petroleum product data.Flash and fire points have obvious safety connotations – the higher the testtemperature the less the hazard of fire or explosion. Of comparablesignificance, however, is their value in providing a simple indication of volatility,where a lower flash point denotes a more volatile material. The dilution of acrankcase oil with fuel, for example, lowers the flash point. Flash and firepoints should not be confused with AUTO-IGNITION TEMPERATURE, thetemperature at which combustion occurs spontaneously (without an externalsource of ignition).
FOAM INHIBITOR – an additive which causes foam to dissipate more rapidly.It promotes the combination of small bubbles into large bubbles which burstmore easily.
FOUR BALL TESTS – two test procedures based on the same principle – theFour-Ball EP Test (ASTM D2596) and Four-Ball Wear Test (ASTM D2266).The three lower balls are clamped together to form a cradle upon which thefourth ball rotates in a vertical axis. The balls are immersed in the lubricantunder investigation. The FOUR BALL WEAR TEST is used to determine therelative wear-preventing properties of lubricants operating under boundarylubrication conditions. The test is carried out at a specified speed,temperature, and load. At the end of a specified period, the average diameterof the wear scar on the three lower balls is reported. The FOUR-BALL EPTEST is designed to evaluate performance under much higher unit loads. Inthis test the top ball is rotated at a specified speed (1700±60 rpm), buttemperature is not controlled. The loading is increased at specified intervalsuntil the rotating ball seizes and welds to the other balls. At the end of eachinterval the average scar diameter is recorded. Two values are generallyreported – LOAD WEAR INDEX (formerly mean Hertz load) and WELDPOINT.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
HYDROCRACKING – is a process, which is used by a few manufacturers ofsuperior quality lubricant basestock. In the process, a petroleum feedstock isreacted with hydrogen, in the presence of a catalyst, at very high temperatures(400-425°C) and pressures (3000 plus psi). Under these severe conditions, virtually all the aromatic hydrocarbons present are isomerized and saturated toyield a basestock containing 96% to 99.5+% saturated hydrocarbons. The process also virtually eliminates all traces of sulphur, nitrogen and oxygen-containing impurities. Hydrocracking produces very high quality, synthetic-likebasestocks, which when blended with carefully selected additives, giveextremely stable lubricants of a synthetic level performance.
HYDROFINISHING – (see HYDROTREATING)
HYDROISOMERIZATON – the HydroIsomerization process employs a specialcatalyst which selectively isomerize wax molecules to isoparaffinic lube oils.The process produces base stocks with higher NIs (Viscosity Index) andimproved low temperature fluidity, compared to stocks produced with lowconventinal dewaxing. This process can also be utilized to produce selectedbase oils with VIs approaching 130 and performance characteristics verysimilar to synthetic lubricants such as poly-alpha-olefins (PAO).
HYDROTREATING – a generic name for a refinery process for treating fuelsand lubricant feedstocks, at elevated temperatures, in the presence of pres-surized hydrogen and a catalyst. This relatively mild process, is sometimescalled “Hydrofinishing” and is used to improve the colour and odour of fuelsand lubricant basestocks.
HYDRODYNAMIC LUBRICATION – a lubrication regime characterized by afull fluid film between two moving surfaces. The most common example is thetype of lubrication which occurs in oil lubricated journal bearings. Themovement of one surface (the shaft or journal) “pulls” lubricating oil into thespace between the journal and the bearing. This action develops a highpressure in the fluid which completely separates the two surfaces. By contrast,in boundary lubrication there is only a partial fluid film separating the twosurfaces and some surface-to-surface contact occurs.
INHIBITOR – additive for the control of an undesirable phenomenon in grease,oils, or fuels, etc., for example: oxidation inhibitors, rust inhibitors, foaminhibitors, etc.
ISO – (International Organization for Standardization) – an organization whichestablishes internationally recognized standards for products and test methods.One example is the ISO Viscosity Grade system for industrial oils.
NEUT NUMBER – or NEUTRALIZATION NUMBER: the specific quantity ofreagent required to “neutralize” the acidity or alkalinity of a lube oil sample.Either of these characteristics – acidity or alkalinity – may be exhibited by anunused oil, depending on its composition. In addition, certain additives impartacidity, while alkalinity may be derived from the presence of detergents or ofbasic material added to control oxidation. In service, the oil will, in time, showincreasing acidity as the result of oxidation and, in some cases, additivedepletion. Though acidity is not, of itself, necessarily harmful, an increase inacidity may be indicative of oil deterioration, and neut number is widely used toevaluate the condition of an oil in service. The most common measurement isACID NUMBER, the specific quantity of KOH (potassium hydroxide) required tocounterbalance the acid characteristics. How high an acid number can be

tolerated depends on the oil and the service conditions; and only broadexperience with the individual situation can determine such a value. Neutnumber is determined in accordance with the ASTM Method D664 or D974.The former is a potentiometric method, the latter, colorimetric. Values forTOTAL ACID, STRONG ACID, TOTAL BASE, and STRONG BASE can, wherethey exist, be obtained. Strong acid numbers are considered to be related to inorganic acids, such as those derived from sulphur, while the differencebetween the total and strong acid numbers is attributed to weak acids – possibly the products of oxidation. A total acid number (TAN) and a total basenumber (TBN) can exist simultaneously, both components too weak tocompletely neutralize the other. When results are reported simply as “neutnumber” or “acid number”, a TOTAL ACID NUMBER (TAN) is implied.
OXIDATION – A form of chemical deterioration to which petroleum products –like most other organic materials – are subject. The resistance of manypetroleum products to oxidation, however, is very high. Oxidation usuallyinvolves the addition of oxygen atoms, and the result is nearly always one ofdegradation. It is accelerated by higher temperatures, the reaction becomingsignificant at temperatures above 70°C. For every 10°C rise, the rate ofoxidation essentially doubles. Oxidation is also promoted by the presence ofcatalytic metals, copper being particularly active in this latter respect. What ismore, the peroxides that are the initial products of oxidation are themselvesoxidizing agents. So the oxidation of petroleum products is a chain reaction;the farther it progresses, the more rapid it becomes. With fuels and lube oils,oxidation produces sludges, varnishes, gums, and acids, all of which areundesirable. Nevertheless, many oils, such as turbine oils, give years ofservice without need for replacement. Petroleum products that require a longservice or storage life can be formulated to meet requirements by: 1. properselection of crude type. Paraffinic oils are noted for natural resistance tooxidation: 2. thorough refining, which removes oxidation-susceptible materialsand allows greater response to inhibitor; 3. addition of oxidation inhibitors.Long service is also promoted by good maintenance practices – filtration,centrifuging, or other means of controlling contamination; limiting duration orintensity of high temperatures; eliminating the presence of air and of catalytic metals. Forinformation on determining the degree of deterioration sustained by a usedoil and hence, its suitability for further service, see NEUT NUMBER.
OXIDATION INHIBITOR – chemical added in small quantities to a petroleumproduct to increase its oxidation resistance and hence to lengthen its serviceor storage life. An oxidation inhibitor may combine with the peroxides formedinitially by oxidation, thereby modifying them in such a way as to arrest theiroxidizing influence. Or the inhibitor (a passivator) may react with a catalysteither to “poison” it or to coat it with an inert film.
POISE – CGS unit of absolute viscosity: shear stress (in dynes per squarecentimeter) required to move one layer of fluid along another over a total layerthickness of one centimeter at a shear rate of one centimeter per second.Dimensions are dyne-sec/cm2. The CENTIPOISE (cP) is 1/100 of a poise andis the unit of absolute viscosity most commonly used. Whereas ordinaryviscosity measurements depend on the force of gravity on the fluid to supplythe shear stress and are thus subject to distortion by differences in fluiddensity, ABSOLUTE VISCOSITY measurements are independent of densityand are directly related to resistance to flow. (See also VISCOSITY.)

POUR POINT – is a widely used low-temperature flow indicator and is 3°Cabove the temperature to which a normally liquid petroleum product maintainsfluidity. It is a significant factor in cold-weather start-up, but must beconsidered along with pumpability, the ease with which an oil pumps at lowtemperatures. Paraffinic oils contain wax which forms a honeycomb of crystalsat low temperatures near the pour point. However, agitation by a pump breaksdown this wax structure and allows paraffinic oil to be pumped attemperatures well below their pour point. Naphthenic oils, on the other hand,contain little or no wax and reach their pour point through increase in viscosity:they cannot be pumped readily near the pour point. ASTM D97 is used todetermine pour point. ASTM D97 also provides for the determination ofCLOUD POINT, the lowest temperature at which the sample becomes cloudedby the formation of wax crystals. Clouding is a characteristic only of paraffinicoils. It is a consideration in the evaluation of fuels whose filtration might beimpaired by the plugging effect of wax crystals.
RUST INHIBITOR – a lubricant additive for protecting ferrous (iron and steel)components from rusting caused by water contamination or other harmfulmaterials from oil degradation. Some rust inhibitors operate similarly tocorrosion inhibitors by reacting chemically to form an inert film on metalsurfaces. Other rust inhibitors absorb water by incorporating it into water-in-oilemulsion so that only the oil touches the metal surfaces.
SCUFFING – engine wear resulting from the localized welding and fracture ofrubbing surfaces.
SOLVENT EXTRACTION – a traditional refinery process that is used toupgrade chemical and physical properties in the manufacture of lube oil basestocks. The process relies on the solubility of impurities (especially aromatic components that may also contain sulphur and nitrogen) in anextractive solvent, usually furfural or phenol. The by-product of this process ishighly aromatic EXTRACT, used to make EXTENDER oils, and as feed forother refinery processes.
STLE – (Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers) – formerly knownas ASLE.
SULPHATED ASH – (see ASH)
SYNTHETIC LUBRICANTS - lubricants manufactured by a process, where achemical conversion or transformation of one complex mixture of molecules intoanother complex mixture takes place. A simple purification or physicalseparation process, such as distillation or freezing, does not constitute asynthesis.
Common types of synthetic base oil include:• Polyalpha olefins• Hydrocracked/HydroIsomerized Unconventional Base Oils (UCBOs)• Organic esters• Polyglycols
Synthetic lubricants can exhibit one or more of the following advantages overconventional mineral oils:
• Excellent low temperature fluidity• Low pour point• High natural viscosity index• Outstanding oxidation stability
Handbook Canadian 2/27/07 8:43 AM Page 185
1869
• High flash and auto-ignition points • Low volatility• Non-toxic
Synthetic lubricants have been used for some time in applications such as jetengine lubricants, arctic lubricants and fire resistant hydraulic fluids. They arenow starting to replace conventional mineral oils in a number of applications,where one or more of the above properties are required. Despite their higherprice, synthetics offer operating advantages that can make them more economical in the long run. For example - reduced oil consumption, longer oillife, improved fuel economy and easier starting at low temperatures.
TIMKEN OK LOAD – measure of the extreme pressure properties of a lubri-cant. Lubricated by the product under investigation, a standard steel rollerrotates against a block. Timken OK load is the heaviest load that can be car-ried without scoring.
TOTAL BASE NUMBER – (see NEUT NUMBER)
VISCOSITY – measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow. It is ordinarily expressedin terms of the time required for a standard quantity of the fluid at a certaintemperature to flow through a standard orifice. The higher the value, the moreviscous the fluid. Since viscosity varies inversely with temperature, its value ismeaningless unless accompanied by the temperature at which it is determined.With petroleum oils, viscosity is now commonly reported in CENTISTOKES(cSt), measured at either 40°C or 100°C (ASTM Method D445 – KinematicViscosity). An earlier method for reporting viscosity in North America was inSaybolt Seconds Universal – SSU or SUS – or, for very viscous oils, in SayboltSeconds Furol – SSF (ASTM Method D88). Other less common viscosity unitsare the ENGLER and REDWOOD scales, principally used in Europe. (Seealso BROOKFIELD VISCOSITY, POISE.)
VISCOSITY INDEX (V.l.) – an indicator of the rate of change of viscosity withtemperature. This change is common to all non-reactive fluids – some more,some less. Heating tends to make them thinner – cooling, thicker. The higherthe V.l., the less the tendency for the viscosity to change. V.l. is determined byformula from the viscosities at 40°C and 100°C in accordance with the ASTMTest Method D567 or D2270. The latter test is required for V.l.’s above 100.High V.l. oils are often preferred for service in which a relatively constant viscosity is desired under conditions of varying temperature. Some hydraulicsystems require this property. Paraffinic oils are inherently high in V.l., and theV.l. of any petroleum oil can be increased by the addition of a V.l. improver.Naphthenic oils are inherently low in V.l. and aromatic oils are still lower –often having negative numbers.
VOLATILITY – that property of a liquid that defines its evaporation characteristics. Of two liquids, the more volatile will boil at a lower temperature, and it will evaporate faster when both liquids are at the sametemperature. The volatility of petroleum products can be evaluated by tests for FLASH POINT, VAPOUR PRESSURE, DISTILLATION, and EVAPORATION RATE.

Example: Two Base Oil Blending
Determine the relative viscosities, at a common temperature, ofthe two base oils to be blended.
i.e. 80 Neutral 15 cSt @ 40°C 160 Neutral 35 cSt @ 40°C
Locate these viscosities on the appropriate sides of the chartand join them with a straight line. From this chart and the line,you can:
1. Determine blend percentages to give a desired viscosity byreading down from intersection point of line and desired viscosity. In our example, if plotted, we could obtain 20 cSt @ 40°C oil with a 60/40 blend of the two base oils.
2. Determine the viscosity of a blended base oil if the volume percentages of the two base oils are known. Simply read upfrom the volume percentages point to the line and readacross to the viscosity.
