First, what is the qualitative experiment of oil wear (Principle of qualitative experiment of oil wear)


The qualitative test of oil wear is an experimental method used to determine whether the lubricating oil contains particles or impurities that cause wear. The purpose of the experiment is to qualitatively assess the wear of the lubricating oil, and determine whether the lubricating oil is contaminated by particle wear or impurities by observing the experimental results, so as to take timely measures to protect the equipment.


The principle of qualitative test of oil wear is as follows.


1. Collect the lubricating oil samples to be tested, and ensure that the collection process of the samples avoids external contamination as far as possible.


2, Prepare filter paper, in the experiment process, usually use a specific filter paper, this filter paper can capture particles and impurities, easy to observe.


3. Filter the lubricating oil, filter the lubricating oil sample through the filter paper, so that the particles and impurities are attached to the filter paper.


4. Observe the filter paper and place the filtered filter paper under the microscope for observation. Through the effect of microscope amplification, you can clearly see whether there are particles or impurities on the filter paper.


5, judge the wear situation, observe the number, size and shape of particles or impurities on the filter paper, so as to determine whether the lubricating oil is contaminated by particle wear or impurities.


This experimental method is a simple qualitative detection method, which can quickly judge the wear of lubricating oil by directly observing the particles or impurities on the filter paper. However, it should be noted that this experiment can only provide qualitative information on whether the lubricant contains particles or impurities, and cannot provide quantitative data on the degree of wear. For more accurate wear analysis, other more sophisticated experimental methods and instruments may be needed to assess particles and wear in the lubricant.

Second, the wear oil pollution detection method is mainly divided into several categories


Wear oil contamination detection methods are mainly divided into the following categories.


1. Optical detection method: Using the optical principle to detect the particles in the oil. They include optical microscopy, light scattering and laser particle size analyzer. These methods can be used to analyze the morphology, size and distribution of particles in the oil.


2. Chromatographic analysis: The use of chromatographic technology to analyze the chemical composition of the oil, especially organic wear products. Common methods are gas chromatography and liquid chromatography.


3. Wear particle counting method: By counting the number of wear particles in the oil to assess the cleanliness of the oil. Common methods include glass fiber filtration, membrane filtration and laser particle counting.


4. Wear particle quality analysis: In addition to counting wear particles, you can also understand the composition of particles through quality analysis. Such methods include energy spectrum analysis and mass spectrometry.


5. Vibration monitoring method: Determine whether the equipment is worn by detecting the vibration signal of the equipment. The vibration monitoring method has a good effect on the detection of early wear.


These wear oil detection methods can be combined to carry out a comprehensive evaluation of the wear in the oil, help timely detect equipment problems and take appropriate measures to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and extend the service life of the equipment.


Third, what types of wear particles are in the oil sample


There are many types of wear particles in the oil sample, mainly including the following.


1. Metal abrasive particles. Metal particles produced by the wear of mechanical parts can be identified by color, shape and size of different materials, such as iron, copper, aluminum, etc.


2, wear dust. During the use of lubricating oil, it may be polluted by the external environment and introduce wear dust, such as sand and dust.


3. Sludge and sediment. There may be deposits and sludge in the lubricating oil, which can cause wear and clogging of the equipment.


4, additive particles. Various additives are added to lubricants, such as antioxidants, anti-wear agents, etc., which may form particles during use.


The type and number of wear particles can provide important information about the health of the equipment and the status of the oil in use. The combination of qualitative and quantitative detection methods can assess wear in lubricating oil, take appropriate measures in time, protect equipment and extend the service life of lubricating oil.


There are several methods for the analysis of wear particles of lubricating oil samples


The methods of abrasive particle analysis of lubricating oil samples mainly include the following common techniques.


1. Optical microscope observation. The wear particles in the lubricating oil samples are observed by optical microscope, and the shape, size and color of the wear particles are judged by the magnification effect, so as to conduct preliminary qualitative analysis.


2, laser particle size analysis. By using laser particle size analyzer, the number and size distribution of abrasive particles in lubricating oil samples were obtained, and quantitative detection was realized.


3, resistance particle counting method. A resistive particle counter is used to count and measure the number of abrasive particles by detecting how the particles in the lubricating oil sample block the current.


4. Electron microscope analysis. Using scanning electron microscopy or transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution observation and analysis of microscopic particles in lubricating oil samples can obtain more detailed particle morphology and composition information.


5. Infrared spectrum analysis. The sample of lubricating oil was analyzed by infrared spectrometer, and the type of abrasive particles was determined by detecting the absorption peaks of different materials.


6. Magnetic particle analysis. Magnetic or magnetic fields are used to separate lubricating oil samples containing magnetic abrasive particles and then observe and analyze them by microscope or other means.


The above methods can be used alone or combined with a variety of techniques for comprehensive analysis. Qualitative analysis is usually through optical microscope observation and infrared spectral analysis to judge the type and shape of wear particles, while quantitative analysis needs to use laser particle size analysis, resistance particle counting method and electron microscope analysis to obtain the number and size distribution of wear particles. According to the actual demand and testing purpose, the suitable method can be selected to analyze the wear particles of lubricating oil samples.


The particles in the oil sample are counted and sized to determine the number and size distribution of wear particles. Such detection methods include laser particle size analysis, resistance particle counting, electron microscope analysis, etc., to more accurately assess the condition of wear particles.
