I have a question I can't find answer to. Would you be able to kindly take a look at it please? I need to form(bend) thermoplastic polyamide hose in rubber jacket to a desired shape. I can use heat gun but I thought for better results I could use heated to 150C group III engine oil to evenly distribute heat. My question is does polyamide in its soft state reacts with petroleum product such as engine oil?
In terms of paying for something expensive that last a long time it needs to go a lot further than being cost competitive on a lifecycle basis to account for the risk involved. If the oil life is shortened in any way the value proposition dies off immediately, some examples could be: 1. A hose blows 2. Cross contamination with other substances (coolants, fuels, greases, etc) Regardless this is an awesome project and even jist the idea of a single base oil and additive package used for everything is cool.
Thanks! Yeah I've been thinking about those things too. To be fair, when I say "expensive" it's in the ballpark of other synthetics currently on the market. I've got some ideas on how to make the thing energy efficient, but if a hose blows there's not a whole lot I can do about that!!
@@LubricationExplained such a cool project! The hose blowing is definitely not your problem but it's also been a deciding factor in the past for me choosing between less expensive zinc based hydraulic oil for mining excavators and more expensive zinc free (to avoid varnish). My rationale was "our maintenance isn't good enough to prevent hoses from bursting so why would I spend money on an expensive oil for better life when we change it more frequently anyway due to hoses bursting."

The idea of a unified formula is not new by any means. It works well in certain industries by not in others. Task specific formulas are still required when there is a wide range of application requirements such as hydraulic versus high load gear cases. Also, the concept of the unified formula doesn't have to be limited to oils.
Good point Don. They do certainly already exist - I guess I just want to see how many of the edge cases can be dealt with under a single banner. There's some new base oils and additives out there with really interesting properties. I am cheating a little bit though, because I'm not bound by cost.
This has got to be the future! Very exciting concept. By using oil refinery technology on a micro scale. Wet Electrostatic precipitators, mini oil regenerator units using catalysts... I am very interested to see where this leads...
Not that I have seen. The key to re-refining is really the collection of used oil. The segregation of synthetics for re-refining isn't really something that is done yet. We probably have the technology, but the marketplace doesn't exist.
@@LubricationExplained oh yeah i forgot, i always store used oil that with only carbon deposit and gram of friction oil below 5000km, store for months,years outside/outdoor (for changing temperature naturally for extract of contaminant carbon,friction,that can get down to the bottom) and i can use it again for thousand KM.
High grade oil is incredibly inexpensive compared to repair costs.
Very true! I wish everyone shared your opinion.
Also you could hard core By-pass filtration and have additive premix concentrate trickle in like DEF, and you just refill reservoir

Liqui Aussie
I would like to know more about a filter that can remove particulates, contaminants, and oxidation. If it exists now, why have we not heard of it?
Coming soon! I just want to do some real world trials so that I have data to show.
I should have also mentioned it's relatively new, so not many have heard of it.

is there a oil transforming from used to syntetic? or extraction the contaminan from used oil?

@@LubricationExplained aaaahh i see now, thx.

What’s your opinion on Valvoline’s new o they announced this week?
