潤滑油の品質パラメータの同時測定
可視-近赤外(Vis-NIR)分光法を用いて、潤滑油中の酸価(AN)、 40℃での動粘度、水分量、色を一度に測定
概要
可視-近赤外(Vis-NIR)分光法を用いて、潤滑油中の酸価(AN)、 40℃での動粘度、水分量、および色といった複数の化学的および物理的パラメータを決定しました。
このアプリケーションノートでは、Vis-NIRSを用いてこれらのパラメータを迅速かつ同時に測定した例を紹介します。
結果
The obtained Vis-NIR spectra (Figure 2) were used to create prediction models for quantification of the acid number, viscosity, moisture content, and color number in lubricants. Correlation diagrams, which display the relationship between Vis-NIR prediction and primary method values, are used to determine the quality of the prediction models. The respective figures of merit (FOM) display the expected precision of a prediction during routine analysis.

Conclusion
The following application note demonstrates the feasibility of NIR spectroscopy for the analysis of key quality parameters in lubricants. In comparison to wet chemical methods (Table 6), the time to result is a major advantage of NIR spectroscopy, since all parameters are determined in a single measurement in less than a minute.
Parameter | Method | Time to result |
---|---|---|
Acid number | Titration | ∼5 min |
Viscosity | Viscometry | ∼4 min |
Moisture content | KF Titration | ∼5 min |
Color number | UV-Vis Photometer | ∼1 min |
