The addition of defoamers can effectively control the generation and stability of bubbles in lubricating oil. Defoamers are special chemicals that have the effect of reducing surface tension and viscosity. When defoamers are added to lubricating oil, they quickly diffuse to the surface of bubbles and change the physical properties of the bubble surface. In this way, the surface tension of the bubbles is reduced, and the interaction force between the bubbles is also reduced, causing the bubbles to break and disappear. The addition of defoamers can effectively prevent the formation and accumulation of bubbles and improve the stability and performance of lubricating oil.
In addition, defoamers can also improve the working efficiency and service life of lubricating oil. The presence of bubbles in lubricating oil will cause the flow performance of lubricating oil to decrease, thereby affecting the normal operation of equipment. By adding defoamers, the presence of bubbles can be effectively reduced, the flow performance of lubricating oil can be improved, and the working efficiency of equipment can be improved. At the same time, the presence of bubbles in lubricating oil can also cause oxidation and degradation of lubricating oil, reducing the service life of lubricating oil. The addition of defoamers can reduce the impact of bubbles on the oxidation and degradation of lubricating oil and extend the service life of lubricating oil.
In short, it is very necessary to add defoamers when producing lubricating oil. The addition of defoamers can effectively control the formation and stability of bubbles in lubricating oil, and improve the working efficiency and service life of lubricating oil. In actual production, according to different lubricating oil types and process requirements, selecting the appropriate defoamer type and additive content is an important link to ensure the stability of lubricating oil quality. By using defoamers scientifically and rationally, the normal operation of lubricating oil can be guaranteed and the efficiency and quality of industrial production can be improved.
