Why engine oil is deteriorating
It is known that at some point, engine oil must be changed. For cars, but consumers are not widely aware of exactly when the used oil should be changed.
Many factors contribute to the deterioration of engine oil, but the main reason is the accumulation of pollutants and chemical changes in engine oil that make it unfit for further service.
Over time, it is inevitable that the oil will be contaminated by dirt or carbon retarded from combustion, or succumb to the extreme pressures or heat inside the engine.
Extreme heat
Today's engines are getting hotter than ever. Because it is more in capacity (horsepower) with a difference in engine designs such as the presence of a turbocharger, and the development of aerodynamic designs for the suitability of operation in hot environments that receive less external air cooling.
Therefore, a rise in temperature leads to oxidation of diesel and an increase in the thickness of traditional oils used and traditional motor oils that are more vulnerable to heat effects.
Small light molecules are found in traditional solarals that tend to evaporate, and are heated and left large and heavy particles behind and this leads to its consumption and an increase in oil viscosity.
Because it converts large and heavy chemically unstable particles, they may also break down and form fossilized carbon remains on the engine surfaces from the inside, preventing the release of heat into the diesel stream.
Even at relatively mild temperatures, oxygen destroys some chemicals in traditional lubricants. With extreme heat in the engines, oxidation is enhanced.
Traditional oil contaminants are mixed ingredients of varnish, solid remains and sediments and leave lubricants thick, difficult to pump and eventually become very bad in heat transfer.
extreme cold
Cold temperatures cause weight for its strength. Traditional lubricants contain paraffins that cause them to be tender in cold temperatures such as paraffin gels. When starting, this can leave the work parts unprotected for as long as five minutes while the oil temperature rises to a temperature that allows it to flow.
Common pollutants
Dust and dirt from the air enters the engine through bad air conditioners, some oil filling hats and ventilation systems utility tray. The erosion of the normal engine produces small metal particles that are picked up and circulated by oil. Abrasive particles of dust and road dirt increase the rate of corrosion and generate large metal particles. These particles are equally abrasive and an accelerated rate of increase with the presence of a snowball effect. While filtration removes most of these pollutants, some remain and are left to circulate with oil.
Combustion of by-products
Combustion produces several accumulations and also acts as pollutants. Water and acids lead to sludge, rust and corrosion. Carbon and varnish, filters can be clogged. Unburned fuel is deposited in liquid form on the walls of the cylinder, leaking into the rings in the utility box.
Dirt collects on oil pumping sprinklers, limiting the flow of oil to vital engine parts and leading to fast and destructive wear. When oil becomes contaminated, viscosity changes. With soot, dirt, oxidation or sludge, increase viscosity. With fuel mitigation that reduces
Interior Forces
Engines create a great deal of internal pressure. Extreme pressure can lead to the lubrication of the border that breaks the oil film between moving parts. The movement inside the engine stirs, liquid, trapping the air and forming bubbles or foam. Because the air is compression, the film's fluid capacity is reduced to prevent contact. Because the air is mixed contains oxygen, it promotes oil oxidation.
extras
Careful research and experimentation led lubricant manufacturers to specific chemicals that combat various problems faced by motor oils. These chemical additives are added to the oil base as a single package. Typical additive packages can include rust, corrosion inhibitors, detergents, dispersants, foam agents, oxidants, extreme pressure additives and viscosity index enhancers. Each additive is designed to help base oil protect ingredients, but additives have their limits.
While these additives are created to perform specific tasks, they are also exposed to the same harsh environment as base oil, and each additive is influenced by different variables in different ways. For example, viscosity index enhancers are used to reduce the effects of thinning at high temperatures. They are the main ingredients that allow the production of multiple oils. However, long molecules in viscosity index enhancers are subject to service cuts, reducing their ability to reduce viscosity fluid loss. Permanent shearing of viscosity index enhancer can lead to a thorny caps ring due to the formation of deposits, increased oil consumption and accelerated wear of equipment.
High quality additions perform better and last longer when combined with high quality synthetic essential oils.
It's all in molecules.
Made of traditional lubricant refined oil, it is a natural and impure substance. The size is diverse and unconstituted and the shape of molecules that make up traditional oils are suitable for contamination. They can't withstand extreme heat or cold, and they burn and surrender to oxidation, leading to deposit development and component wear.
AMSOIL Motor Synthetic Oils Superior
AMSOIL synthetic engine oils provide extended equipment life, reduced maintenance costs, improved performance, improved fuel economy and extended migration periods through the use of high-quality synthetic base stock and high added packages.
Because they are derived from pure chemicals, synthetic lubricants do not contain unnecessary molecules. Smooth lubricant particles easily slip across another one, improving lubrication capacity to reduce friction, which in turn improves wear control, heat control and fuel efficiency. In addition, uniformly sized synthetic lubricant molecules resist thinning in heat and thickening in the cold, reducing the need for viscosity index enhancer and increasing lubrication capacity to maintain viscosity.
Because AMSOIL synthetic lubricants contain only powerful, uniform molecules, they are more resistant to thermal collapse and oxidation. AMSOIL synthetics are almost impregnable to collapse at normal operating temperatures and can be used at higher temperatures than traditional oils without collapsing. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils maintain varnish-free ingredients, deposits and sludge.
Extended migration periods
Only AMSOIL synthetic motor oils provide protection that is superior to traditional oils, but remains fit for longer service than traditional oils. Heat and oxidation are the main enemies of the foundation stocks for lubrication. Excellent resistance from synthetic lubricants to thermal breakdown and oxidation allows them to use them safely for longer periods of migration than traditional lubricants. Their uniform and smooth molecular structure allows AMSOIL synthetic motor oils to work with less friction and better heat control than traditional lubricants.
AMSOIL is recommended to sign synthetic motor oil chain for migration periods of 25,000 miles/year, synthetic XL motor oil is recommended for migration periods of 10,000 miles/ for six months, and OE synthetic motor oil for the manufacturer's vehicle recommended migration periods.
The choice is clear.
When AMSOIL introduced synthetic motor oil in 1972 it was before his time. Today, engine designers have goals of increasing fuel economy, reduced exhaust emissions, more performance from smaller engines and greater durability, and increased demand for engine oils that require continuous upgrades. AMSOIL remains at the forefront of the engine oil market by continuing to provide oils that are ahead of their time. No other engine oil is guaranteed for 25,000 miles or one year in normal service, nor other engine oil can match the performance and protection provided by AMSOIL synthetic engine oils.
