C URRENT research aims to inspect the chemical analysis of engine oils as an indicator of wear in engine. The novelty of work is to test lubricating oil quality and to determine the wear rate in a simple way by taking oil sample of 10 cm 3 and analyzed it in about 5 minutes. This can be done during the operation of equipment without need to stop them, furthermore, this method is a quick indicator of the need to change oil as soon as the initial evidence of wear in the oil molecules. Fresh and used oil samples were chemically analyzed for its elemental analysis for additive elements such as Fe, Cr, pb, Cu, Sn, Al, Ti and Zn, to clarification the wear generation of engine from the contamination present in the lubricating oil. Obtained results showed that increasing percentage of particles of Fe, Cr, pb, Cu, Sn, Al, Ti and Zn metals accompanied by the wear caused in these metals. Height ratio in element Si was not too high this indicated the quality and efficiency of air filters after 100 hours working. Salts such as Na, Ca have increased, but Ba decreased by chemical action at hot temperature of engine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
