T66330 CI-4/SL Engine Oil Additive Package is typically used at a recommended treat rate of 10% – 12% by weight when blending with base oil to formulate finished engine oil.
Calculation for 1 Ton of T66330 Additive Package
- If the treat rate is 10%:
- 1 ton of additive can blend with 9 tons of base oil, making 10 tons of finished engine oil.
- If the treat rate is 12%:
- 1 ton of additive can blend with 7.33 tons of base oil, making 8.33 tons of finished engine oil.
Final Answer:
Depending on the required treat rate (10%-12%), 1 ton of T66330 additive package can produce approximately 8.33 – 10 tons of finished engine oil when mixed with filtered base oil.
The blending process of T66330 CI-4/SL Engine Oil Additive Package with base oil typically requires moderate heating to ensure proper solubility, uniform dispersion, and optimal performance of the additives.
Blending Temperature Guidelines:
- Normal Temperature (20-30°C):
- Not recommended, as some components in the additive package (e.g., viscosity modifiers, detergents) may not fully dissolve or disperse well.
- Moderate Heating (50-65°C):
- Recommended for better mixing and solubility.
- Prevents separation and ensures uniform blending.
- Helps viscosity improvers and dispersants integrate smoothly.
- High Temperatures (>80°C):
- Not recommended, as excessive heat can degrade some additives (like ZDDP, dispersants, or antioxidants).
Blending Procedure:
- Preheat base oil to 50-65°C in a blending tank.
- Slowly add T66330 additive package under continuous stirring.
- Maintain stirring for 30-60 minutes to ensure uniform dispersion.
- Cool down the blend before packaging or storage.
