What are the effects of foreign oils mixed in an emulsion?
Way oils, hydraulic oils and any other kind of oils mixed into emulsion for some reason are called foreign oils and their entrance to system is an undesirable situation. Foreign oil rate in the system should not outreach 3 percent. On the contrary; • They accumulate over the emulsion and cause it to suffocate and thus anaerobic bacteria propagate in emulsion causing it to cause molds • It makes up proper nutrition conditions for anaerobic bacteria and causes them to propagate and cause molds • Smoke occurs in emulsifying zone • Emulsion stability deteriorates • Detergency feature of the emulsion decreases • Lubrication and refrigeration features of emulsion decreases • It is circulated in the system with emulsion and leaves sticky remainders in machinery and items. When system is not operating, removing foreign oils accumulating in emulsion has prior importance for preventing the harmful effects stated above.
