Abstract Quenching, and quench oil, is a critical part of the manufacturing process for a heat-treated part. In this paper, the effects of many common issues with quench oils are illustrated. These include contamination, soot, and filtration. A brief review of the mechanism of oxidation of quench oils, and the base oils used in modern industrial quench oils will be included. Methods to control oxidation by filtration and the different types of media are illustrated.
