1、Designation:D474217Standard Test Method forOxidation Stability of Gasoline Automotive Engine Oils byThin-Film Oxygen Uptake(TFOUT)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4742;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revis
2、ion,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 evaluates the oxidation stability ofengine oils for gasoline automotive engines.This test
3、,run at160 C,utilizes a high pressure reactor pressurized withoxygen along with a metal catalyst package,a fuel catalyst,andwater in a partial simulation of the conditions to which an oilmay be subjected in a gasoline combustion engine.This testmethod can be used for engine oils with viscosity in th
4、e rangefrom 4 mm2/s(cSt)to 21 mm2/s(cSt)at 100 C,includingre-refined oils.1.2 This test method is not a substitute for the engine testingof an engine oil in established engine tests,such as SequenceIIID.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are
