Managing hydraulic oil deposits using novel solubility enhancing technology

This presentation will present the principle and use of a novel solubility enhancing technology. Case studies will illustrate how this approach can be used both reactionary; to resolve immediate mechanical issues, and proactively; to provide long-term deposit protection. Applications covered in this paper are from the automotive industry, steel manufacturing, injection moulding, mining and marine industry.

Although these formulations may perform better in the field, it is essential that their degradation products are measured using a condition monitoring program. Additionally, thermal stress continues to increase in hydraulic oils as oil reservoirs shrink in size, while operating temperatures and pressures increase. Hydraulic system deposit formation needs to be addressed, in an economical and sustainable way.
