“…Usually, the ageing of engine oils is characterized by oxidation, additive depletion and neutralization of the oil. However, the thermal oxidative stability is the most important property to be considered because they have a great influence on changes in viscosity and viscosity index, density, and tribological properties [16,17]. Engines work efficiently in the range between 90 and 100 °C under normal operation, so a good lubricant is required to show minimal degradation at these temperatures.…”

“…The sediment and gum formation mechanisms have been studied in great details [3] and can be summarized as acid-base reactions involving N, 0, and S species, free radical induced polymerization reactions involving unsaturated hydrocarbons, and esterification reactions involving aromatic and heterocyclic species. Many studies have indicated that certain sulfonic acids [4], organic nitrogen compounds [5], and olefins [6] when added to fuels that are then subjected to thermal or oxidative stress, tend to produce insoluble sediments.…”

“…It has been suggested that the level of this degradation affects the tribological contacts between the piston rings and liner, and the piston rings and piston [5,6]. Work has been undertaken by a number of researchers to investigate fresh oil, degraded oil sampled from a sump and aged oil in laboratory simulators [7,8] however this is the first time that tribological analysis has been undertaken on oil sampled directly from the ring pack. This is due in part to the complications of operating such a sampling system and the need for relatively large quantities of oil (20-30ml).…”
