8、,a percentage of the water in the oil and thevolumes of water and emulsion separating from the oil aremeasured and recorded.4.2 For Oils That Contain Extreme Pressure(EP)AdditivesA 360 mL sample of the oil and 90 mL of distilledwater are stirred together for 5 min at 82 C in a specialgraduated separ
9、atory funnel.After a 5 h settling period follow-ing the stirring,percentage of water in the oil and the volumesof water and emulsion separating from the oil are measured andrecorded.5.Significance and Use5.1 This test provides a guide for determining the demulsi-bility characteristic of lubricating
