FRICTION COEFFICIENT: SRV FRICTION TEST

The SRV friction test is used to determine a friction coefficient. The lower the friction coefficient:

• the lower the energy consumption
• the lower the forces required for disassembly
• the lower the level of operating noise.

As seen on the graph below, DP 6 has an extremely low and particularly constant friction coefficient. The plot does not exhibit any peaks which would indicate seizure between surfaces.

The peaks shown for a standard releasing agent and a “high-quality” releasing agent demonstrate the low lubricating properties of certain releasing agents.

SHELL FOUR-BALL TEST – IP 239 STANDARD (INSTITUTE OF PETROLEUM)

The IP 239 standard specifies a method for determining two parameters: the imprint diameter and the weld point.

• The smaller the imprint diameter, the higher the weld resistance of the product.
• The higher the weld point, the higher the load resistance of the product.

The tests show that DP 6 has high weld resistance and load resistance.

THE REMARKABLE RELEASING CAPACITY OF DP 6 INVOLVES TWO MECHANISMS:

– A very low surface tension of 24.2 dyne/cm, measured according to the ISO 6295 standard, ensuring high capillarity, enhanced by specific active ingredients that enable it to penetrate all mechanisms, even when surface roughness is low and clearances are tight.

– High adsorption into surfaces, enabling oxides to be broken down more easily during mechanical disassembly operations.

MIL STD A 907 E/D provides a method for measuring the torque needed to dismantle a bolted assembly, using a torque wrench. The forces are expressed in Newtons per metre. The results of the tests performed show very low dismantling torque after applying DP6.

DP 6 has a breakdown voltage of 63,000 V measured in accordance with the IEC 156 standard. It has very high dielectric properties.

DP 6 is used for the maintenance of locked-out electrical equipment.

Internationally recognised tests have shown that a protective film of DP 6 can act as an effective protective oil that halts and provides long-lasting protection against rust and oxidation.

IN PARTICULAR, THE TESTS HAVE PROVEN :

– Easier release of seized assemblies, tools and mechanical parts.

– Effective prevention of seizing, when DP 6 is used during assembly.

– Better preservation of parts, even under harsh conditions such as sea transport.

DP 6 offers guarantees :

For the environment :

DP 6 is guaranteed free of CFCs, which are suspected of destroying the stratospheric ozone layer, and free of butane and propane, which are suspected of generating excess tropospheric ozone.

For the user :

DP 6 is guaranteed free of chlorinated solvents, including class 3 carcinogens such as PER, TRI and methylene chloride. It does not contain any aromatic or benzene compounds.

Unlike aerosols propelled by butane and propane, there is no risk of accidental flashback. The non-flammable and non-explosive propellant thus avoids the risk of saturation in confined spaces. DP 6 is compatible with all materials with which it is in contact: metals, plastics, coated surfaces.
