At an engine teardown event held earlier this month, Shell Rotella engineers showed off parts from three engines used in a two-year, half-million mile test of the next-generation low-viscosity oil ...

A recent study used various gas oils and blends with residual heavy oils in order to evaluate the predictability of four different correlations. The gas oils differed substantially in their ...

The pour point of an oil is an essential property that determines how it will flow at a given temperature. This is particularly useful for many systems where the temperature can fluctuate due to ...

After studying physics and music composition at Brown, Eric B. Sirota went to Harvard where he received his PhD in Physics in 1986, studying with Prof. Peter Pershan. He then joined Exxon(Mobil)’s ...

Kinematic viscosity is what you might envision when thinking of viscosity – gravitational flow. But the new oils will meet viscosity standards measured at high temperatures/high shear conditions.

Chevron conducted a live teardown of a Detroit DD15 engine, with more than 400,000 miles of service using Delo 400 XLE 10W-30, during the Mid-America Trucking Show. Photo: Evan Lockridge To meet the ...

Electricity is a key part of everyday life, from powering lights and heating food through to moving things in the environment, electrical power is required everywhere. Transformers have a huge role to ...

Latest Confidence Report highlights fuel economy savings and potentially longer drain intervals of low-viscosity engine oil blends. NACFE’s researchers also found a further 0.4% to 0.7% gain in fuel ...

Stricter federal regulations are reshaping the engine oil industry. PC-12 and low-viscosity HDEOs can help with compliance and performance. As the temperatures rise and the days become longer, your ...
