Lubricants are indispensable in every aspect of life. How much do you know about lubricants?

Lubricating oil is composed of base oil and additives. Base oil mainly includes petroleum base oil (mainly mineral base oil), synthetic oil (synthetic base oil), and animal and vegetable oil. Mineral base oil is widely used and used in large quantities (about 95% or more), but some applications must use products blended with synthetic base oil and bio-oil base oil, which has led to the rapid development of these two base oils. Base oil has the basic characteristics of lubricating oil and certain performance properties, but relying solely on improving the processing technology of lubricating oil cannot produce lubricating oil with all performances that meet the use requirements.Additives are the essence of modern advanced lubricants. Correct selection and reasonable addition can improve their physical and chemical properties, give new special properties to lubricants, or enhance certain properties they originally possessed to meet higher requirements. Careful selection, careful balance, and reasonable deployment of additives based on the quality and performance required of lubricants are the key to ensuring lubricant quality.Commonly used additives include: viscosity index improver, pour point depressant, antioxidant, detergent dispersant, friction moderator, oiliness agent, extreme pressure additive, anti-foaming agent, metal passivator, emulsifier, corrosion inhibitor, rust inhibitor, demulsifier, antioxidant and corrosion inhibitor, etc. Careful selection, careful balance and reasonable deployment of additives according to the quality and performance required by lubricants are the key to ensuring the quality of lubricants.

Does your car have its oil changed regularly?

Recently, I often hear people say that the car should change the lubricant oil regularly, but how often is considered regular? Many people are relatively vague about this concept. Today, let's learn about it together. If the car is a newly purchased car, you may need to do the first maintenance in advance, because the engine is in the first running-in period before the first maintenance, and there will be more mechanical debris in the engine. Doing maintenance early to "release" them will definitely be beneficial to the engine. In recent years, the manufacturing standards of automobiles and lubricants have been continuously improved, and the time for regular maintenance and lubricant replacement has also been extended. For Japanese cars, the time to change lubricants is mostly 5,000 kilometers or half a year, while for European and American cars, it is mostly 7,500 kilometers or half a year. If synthetic lubricants are used, under normal driving conditions, the lubricant can be replaced every 10,000 kilometers. "Normal driving" means driving on the highway frequently and rarely stopping and going. In this case, the oil change cycle can be appropriately extended. If it is "wear and tear driving" under urban road conditions, there are frequent traffic jams, and the distance each time rarely exceeds more than ten kilometers, it is necessary to shorten the oil change cycle appropriately. In the case of "wear and tear driving", the engine wears more and the requirements for lubricants are also higher. It is recommended to shorten the interval between lubricant changes to effectively protect the engine. It is difficult for us to judge whether the lubricant should be changed by naked eyes or touch, but after long-term use, a large amount of impurities will accumulate in the lubricant. If new oil is not replaced in time, these impurities will wear the engine and shorten the life of the car.

Current status and development prospects of the lubricating oil industry in 2023

In recent years, with the rapid growth of China's automobile, engineering machinery, electric power, steel, and machine tool industries and the continuous improvement of equipment technology, China's lubricant demand continues to grow, and China has become The world's second largest lubricant market.   With the rapid development of China's economy, China's lubricant industry has experienced an explosion in the past decade, gradually forming three major competition echelons: multinational oil companies, state-owned oil companies, and private lubricant companies. transnational Oil companies have an early layout in the domestic market and are in a leading position in the retail terminal market, such as Shell, Fu BP, Castrol and other foreign first-line brands. Relying on their technology and brand advantages, they have formed a pattern of dominating the Chinese lubricant market; centrally-owned oil companies The company has considerable scale and resource advantages, and has mature experience and strength in seizing group customers and cutting-edge application fields. Sinopec Great Wall Lubricant Company’s public information shows that it has obtained technical certifications from more than 95% of domestic automobile manufacturers, occupying the largest share of the installed base of automobile companies in China. Vehicle and service oils account for over 50% of the market share; private lubricant companies mainly rely on local markets, gradually expand market channels and form stable competitive forces. Generally speaking, the entry threshold for the lubricant industry is not high. During the rapid development stage of the market, various speculative lubricant manufacturers with poor management and unguaranteed quality rely on low-price fraud to disrupt the market order and compete for survival space.   According to incomplete statistics, the number of existing lubricant manufacturers in China still exceeds 2,000. In the medium to long term, increased domestic demand and investment in infrastructure construction will provide a huge consumer market for the lubricant industry. Industry growth will inevitably be accompanied by the adjustment and optimization of the industry’s consumption structure.   Domestic Brands will usher in important development opportunities by relying on high-end products to replace low-end products and domestic products to replace imported products. Judging from the competition model in the terminal market, leading companies are leading import substitution and product upgrading. On the one hand, they are compressing the living space of low-grade oil and inferior oil and optimizing the market order. On the other hand, they are using the cost-effectiveness advantage of domestic products to compete for the high-margin market and maintain their competitiveness with automobiles and high-end oil. Equipment, intelligent manufacturing and other fields are developing simultaneously, and companies with high-end product development capabilities and brand advantages will gradually achieve sales and profitability on the same track.
