Abstract
The versatility of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) cell in studying thermal and/or thermal-oxidative degradation of lubricants is shown using ester based aviation turbine oils as an example. The following applications are discussed: 1. quality control of used oils by pressure differential scanning calorimetry (PDSC); 2. influence of metal catalysis on oil degradation; 3. identification of volatile degradation products by PDSC—gas chromatography (GC)—mass spectrometry (MS) via a TENAX GC trap.
