Abstract
AbstractThe ageing behaviour of trimethylolpropane trioleate was investigated at different temperatures in a modified rotary bomb test apparatus. Some physicochemical properties of ageing oil samples, such as acid value, kinematic viscosity, and iodine value, were measured. The oil samples were analysed using gas chromatography, gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry, and gel permeation chromatography to assess the influence of temperature on the ageing behaviour of ester‐based oils. The results revealed that an increase in temperature could greatly speed up the ageing reaction and increase the formation of decomposition products. However, the degree of oil ageing remained similar when the same quantity of oxygen was consumed.
