They allow working over a very wide temperature range while keeping their viscosity with a minimum change.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\u25cf Freezing point depressants: they act by lowering the melting temperature. The most commonly used at present is the polymeric type.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\u25cf Friction modifiers: depending on the application, a large or small difference is required between the static and dynamic coefficients of friction between alternately contacting oil-lubricated parts.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\u25cf Surfactants and emulsifiers: reduce the surface tension of a liquid. A wide variety of surfactants can provide secondary properties such as stabilisers or foaming agents.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additives that protect the base lubricant to increase its stability are:<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><p>\u25cf Antioxidants: when a lubricant comes into contact with air, it inevitably oxidises, with a certain speed that basically depends on the characteristics of the oil and the temperature. In addition, this process can be accelerated if there is contact with some metals that act as a catalytic agent, or by the presence of contaminants in the oil, such as water, dirt and particles. Oxidation reactions lead to progressive oil degradation with the formation of soluble (weak acids) and insoluble compounds (sludge, lacquers, carbonaceous deposits). Antioxidants are compounds capable of retarding or preventing oxidation processes, i.e. improving their resistance to ageing, such as phenols, amines or organic compounds containing sulphur and\/or phosphorus.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\u25cf Defoamers: In working conditions, the presence of air leading to the formation of foam is common. The presence of foam leads to a reduction in lubricating power, a decrease in cooling capacity and an acceleration of lubricant oxidation processes. Defoamers are compounds, usually based on silicones, fatty esters and high molecular weight hydrocarbons, which reduce the surface tension of the bubbles and facilitate their breakage.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\u25cf Biocides and fungicides: control microbial and bacterial activity in lubricants. Some of the most commonly used biocides are triazines, phenols and formaldehydes.

This includes the selection of high-quality base oils,speciality additives and other components according to the required properties of the lubricant. The quality of the raw materials is critical to ensure an excellent end product.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\n\u25cf Mixing and formulation: Once the raw materials have been selected, the lubricant is mixed and formulated. Base oils and additives are combined to achieve the desired characteristics, such as viscosity, oxidation resistance, and load-carrying capacity, among others. This stage requires know-how and precision to obtain a lubricant with the desired properties.\n\n\u25cf Homogenisation and stabilisation: After mixing, it is crucial to homogenise the lubricant to ensure even distribution of the components. Controlled stirring and heating processes are used to achieve a stable mixture. In addition, tests and adjustments are made to ensure the stability of the lubricant over time and under various conditions of use.\n\n\u25cf Quality testing: To ensure the quality of the lubricant, rigorous laboratory testing is carried out. These tests evaluate properties such as viscosity, acid number, anti-wear ability, oxidation resistance and other key aspects. Only lubricants that meet the established standards move on to the next stage.\n\n\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2dbd2f4 flex-horizontal-align-default flex-horizontal-align-tablet-default flex-horizontal-align-mobile-default flex-vertical-align-default flex-vertical-align-tablet-default flex-vertical-align-mobile-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2dbd2f4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is important to note that each manufacturer may have its own variant on the production process, adapting it to its specific methods and technologies.
