1、Designation:D618619Standard Test Method forOxidation Induction Time of Lubricating Oils by PressureDifferential Scanning Calorimetry(PDSC)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6186;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case
2、of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of oxidationinduction time of lubricating oils subjected
3、 to oxygen at3.5 MPa(500 psig)and temperatures between 130 C and210 C.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.2.1 ExceptionPressure measurement appears in MPawith psig provided in parentheses for information only.1.
4、3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 Th

6、TBT)Committee.2.Terminology2.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:2.1.1 extrapolated onset time,na time determined on athermal curve,as the intersection of the extrapolated baselineand a line tangent to the oxidation exotherm constructed at itsmaximum rate.2.1.2 oxidation induction time,
7、(OIT),na period of timeduring which the oxidation rate accelerates from zero to amaximum and which corresponds to the extrapolated onsettime.2.1.3 thermal curve,na graph of sample heat flow versustime.3.Summary of Test Method3.1 Asmall quantity of oil is weighed into a sample pan andplaced in a test
8、 cell.The cell is heated to a specifiedtemperature and then pressurized with oxygen.The cell is heldat a regulated temperature and pressure until an exothermicreaction occurs.The extrapolated onset time is measured andreported as the oxidation induction time for the lubricating oilat the specified t
9、est temperature.4.Significance and Use4.1 Oxidation induction time,as determined under theconditions of this test method,may be used as an indication ofoxidation stability.2This test method is faster than other oiloxidation tests and requires a very small amount of sample.Itmay be used for research
10、and development,quality control,andspecification purposes.However,no correlation has beenestablished between the results of this test method and serviceperformance.5.Apparatus5.1 Pressure Differential Scanning Calorimeter(PDSC),equipped with the following items:5.1.1 Sample Enclosure,with capability
