Technical Details & Test Data
- MTM Friction Evaluation Data
In this graph we compare Ethomeen T/12 in a Group II base oil which includes ZDDP. As can be seen there is a general lowering of the friction across all regions. A change in the friction profile where the friction moves quicker into mixed lubrication which may lead to reduced wear.
Addition of 0.5 wt% of Ethomeen T/12 in base oil including ZDDP. MTM test at 120°C and 50/50 slide roll ratio.
In a PCMO or HDDEO (motor oils) or in transmission oils there are many different chemistries which may compete for the surface. To evaluate the compatibility of Ethomeen T/12 with other performance additives it is has also been assessed in three different fully formulated ‘off the shelf’ oils. The three oils are: low cost standard motor oil 5W30 (motor oil 1), high end motor oil 5W30 (motor oil 2) and high end motor oil 0W30 (motor oil 3).Addition of 0.5 wt% of Ethomeen T/12 in 3 different fully formulated off the shelf oil. MTM test at 120°C and 50/50 slide roll ratio.
The results show that in all three fully formulated oils the friction is significantly reduced even though the formulations already include friction modifiers. The best improvement is achieved when top treating the 5W30 oils – a reduction of almost 60% is apparent in the mixed region. The additional of Ethomeen T/12 as a top treat to Motor oil 1 and 2 decreases the friction such that they now outperform Motor oil 3 (0W30).
