What is Pour Point?
Point Pour is a temperature above which the lubricant or liquid moves freely under normal conditions. This may be an important characteristic for determining material testing. For some types of materials, standardized tests are available that can consistently determine and report their punching points and the material may need to follow the specifications before it can be sold. Some products come in a number of formulations, in which case marking can provide performance information in different conditions, including the pouring point. If the oil deposit has a high pouring point, it usually reflects the high paraffin content, it may be difficult to extract. Drill teams need to flow oil to pull it out with drilling kits. Transport can also become a problem; In some cases, the oil pipes should be heated to keep the oil in the AA site to move smoothly from the oil fields to the transport terminals and other destinations.
lubricant manufacturers are also concerned in this area. For products like engine oil, the lubricant may need to work at the temperature range. Technicians do not want oil that flows too easily at low temperatures, as it could be too thin at high temperatures and cause engine problems. It must also consider problems such as handling engines in extreme cold, where it is sometimes necessary to heat lubricants or entire engine blocks to allow the device to operate.
To try the point of pouring the material is one simple option to fill the sampling container and place it in a cold environment. Once the temperature is lowered, the technician can regularly tilt the container to see if the material is moving. When the container rolled on the side, it leads to no movement for five minutes, which is clear that the material fell just below the pouring point. The test team can add several degrees to this temperature to determine the publication of the operatingtemperatures for marking and regulatory purposes; One standard has testers to add three degrees Celsius to get this measurement.
If the materials must meet specific point points standards, their labels may need to provide testing information and a confirmed operating range. Regulators can apply for material samples to test independently, confirming that the company meets specifications. Other materials may not meet specific requirements, but still publish this information because it can be useful for customers.
