1、Designation:D618511Standard Practice forEvaluating Compatibility of Binary Mixtures of LubricatingGreases1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6185;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revi
2、sion.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers a protocol for evaluating thecompatibility of one or three binary mixtures of lubricatinggreases by comparing t
3、heir properties or performance relativeto those of the neat greases comprising the mixture.1.2 Three properties are evaluated in a primary testingprotocol using standard test methods:(1)dropping point byTest Method D566(or Test Method D2265);(2)shear stabilityby Test Methods D217,100 000stroke worke
4、d penetration;and(3)storage stability at elevated-temperature by change in60-stroke penetration(Test Method D217).For compatiblemixtures(those passing all primary testing),a secondary(nonmandatory)testing scheme is suggested when circum-stances indicate the need for additional testing.1.3 Sequential
5、 or concurrent testing is continued until thefirst failure.If any mixture fails any of the primary tests,thegreases are incompatible.If all mixtures pass the three primarytests,the greases are considered compatible.1.4 This practice applies only to lubricating greases havingcharacteristics suitable
6、for evaluation by the suggested testmethods.If the scope of a specific test method limits testing tothose greases within a specified range of properties,greasesoutside that range cannot be tested for compatibility by that testmethod.An exception to this would be when the testedproperty of the neat,c
7、onstituent greases is within the specifiedrange,but the tested property of a mixture is outside the rangebecause of incompatibility.1.5 This practice does not purport to cover all test methodsthat could be employed.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of mea
