Comparative Study between Physical Properties of Virgin Oil and Re-Refining Oil
نویسندگان
چکیده
The lubricating oils are essential for operating engine with high efficiency. Therefore, the physical properties of oil such as flash point, pour point, kinematic viscosity, specific gravity and the American Petroleum Institute are necessary to be studied to indicate good quality of the lubricating oil. In this study, we compare the physical properties of two virgin oils with re-refining oil. The results indicated slight differences in the re-refining oil properties in comparing to virgin oils due to larger values of specific gravity and carbon residue, and lower value of flash point, pour point, kinematic viscosity, and American Petroleum Institute.

Quality Characteristics of Iranian Extra Virgin Flaxseed Oil and the Effect of the Refining Stages before Deodorization on its Physicochemical Properties
Flaxseed oil is known as a functional oil because of the high content of α-linolenic acid; therefore, the aim of this research was to investigate some physicochemical properties of Iranian extra virgin flaxseed oil (EVFO) and the impact of the refining stages before deodorization on these properties. Fatty acid composition, peroxide and anisidine values, free fatty acids, Crystallization point,...
متن کاملTechnological Aspects of Olive Oil Production
Virgin olive oil (VOO) is obtained exclusively by mechanical extraction from the olive fruit and can be consumed crude without any further physical-chemical treatments of refining. Its sensory and health properties are intimately linked to its chemical characteristics, in particular to several minor components, which are strongly affected by the operative conditions of oil processing and can th...
