The effect of water contents of POE on scuffing characteristics.

Author(s) : NAKAO H., MATSUKAWA K., SHIRAFUJI Y., et al.

Summary

The conditions required for applying polyolester (POE) to refrigerating oil of rotary compressor using HFCs were examined. It became clear that the vanes and pistons are more likely to scuff when the water content is high; however, the scuffing pressure of the sliding bearings is less likely to be affected by the water content. The use of POE with optimized extreme pressure additives and controlled water content ensures good scuffing characteristics.
