55 The Degradation of Hydrocarbons Base Fluids at Elevated Temperatures (Abstract for STLE 2006: Calgary 7th- 11th May 2006) The Degradation of Hydrocarbons Base Fluids at Elevated Temperatures (Abstract for Talk for STLE Annual Conference, Calgary, May 2006) Moray S. Stark*, John R. Lindsay Smith, Julian J. Wilkinson Department of Chemistry, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK To help with the design of the next generation of lubricants, it is necessary to understand how they degrade during use as this partly determines their useful lifetime. As part of a wider study of this phenomenon, the degradation of structurally simpler analogues of hydrocarbon base fluids (branched alkanes squalane, C 30 H 62 and pristine, C 19 H 40 ) has been investigated under controlled laboratory conditions at temperatures representing sump to piston temperatures (100 to 230 C), and this work is reported here. Degradation products have been identified by GC-MS and quantified by GC and FTIR, with chemical mechanisms proposed to account for the formation of products such as carboxylic acids, alcohols, ketones and alkenes, mostly formed via radical attack on tertiary hydrogen atoms. The viscosity change occurring during the oxidation of these model base fluids has also been examined and work is reported on trying to identify which products cause the viscosity change observed. * Biography for Presenting Author The presenting author has a BSc and PhD in Physics, but has been working as a Chemist for longer than he can remember. The past few years have been spent specialising in the study of the oxidation mechanisms of hydrocarbon and ester lubricant base fluids and the effects that oxidation has on the rheology of lubricants.
