Additive volatility The volatility of additives can have a major impact on lubricant performance characteristics. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) provides information about the volatility of an additive, as well as its thermal and oxidative stability. Test procedure Additive < 50 mg, is heated in a controlled atmosphere (air) at a rate of 10 C per minute from 25 C up to as high as 400 C. The weight loss (in %) of the sample as a function of temperature is represented graphically. Weight loss (% w/w) 0 20 40 Sarkosyl O 60 80 100 100 200 300 400 Temperature (deg C) Lubricants with incidental food contact Ciba can offer a full range of additives cleared by FDA/USA for formulating lubricants which may come into contact with food. Please see Product Selection Guide for full list. Cleared by the FDA under 21 CFR 178.3570, for use in USDA H-1 lubricants with incidental food contact. SARKOSYL O Maximum treat level (1) 0.5 % wt/wt (1) The maximum allowed concentration may exceed the solubility limit of this additive in some base stocks.
