Are lubricant additives dangerous goods?

Most lubricant additives are dangerous goods, such as T8602, T115B, T816C, T746, T803B and some antifoam additives.

No. According to the provisions of the national GB6944-86 "Compilation of Dangerous Goods and Names", commonly used hazardous chemicals are divided into 7 categories according to their main hazard characteristics: Class L:

**Product; Class 2: Compressed and liquefied gases; Class 3: flammable liquids; Category 4:

flammable solids, spontaneously combustible materials and flammable materials when wet; Class 5: Oxidizing agents and organic peroxides; Category 6: Poisonous substances; Class 7:

Corrosives. Among them, the first 5 categories are all explosive dangerous goods, and many substances in the last 2 categories also have explosive hazards. The hazard level of oil is divided according to the flash point, which is flammable below 45 and combustible above 45.

So the properties of lubricant additives: first, they do not have flammable properties. Secondly, it does not have strong corrosiveness.

Third, it does not have volatility.

Fourth, it does not have the ability to be difficult to pack.

Fifth, it does not have the ability to store and transport. Therefore, lubricating oil additives do not belong to dangerous goods, and they do not need to be implemented in accordance with the regulations on the transportation and storage of dangerous goods.

Lubricating oil additives are non-flammable, non-explosive, and not strongly corrosive, so they are not dangerous goods.

Lubricating oil is used in various types of mechanical equipment to reduce friction and protect machinery lubricants, mainly for lubrication, auxiliary cooling, rust prevention, cleaning, sealing and buffering, so it is not a hazardous chemical.

Lubricating oil is generally made from base oil.

and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, which determines the basic properties of lubricating oil, and additives can be used to make up for and improve the shortcomings of base oil performance, give some new properties, and are an important part of lubricating oil.

Lubricating oil is not dangerous goods, dangerous goods refer to flammable, explosive, highly corrosive, toxic and radioactive and other items, lubricating oil does not belong to this category.

Lubricating oil is generally composed of two parts: base oil and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, which determines the basic properties of lubricating oil, and additives can make up for and improve the shortcomings of base oil performance, endow some new sexual properties, and are an important part of lubricating oil.

Lubricants do not belong to dangerous goods, dangerous goods refer to flammable, explosive, highly corrosive, toxic and radioactive and other items lubricants do not belong to this category.

Physicochemical properties of lubricating oil:

1. Appearance (chromaticity).

The color of the oil can often reflect its degree of refinement and stability. For base oils, the higher the degree of refining, the cleaner the oxides and sulfides of the hydrocarbons are removed, and the lighter the color. However, even if the refining conditions are the same, the color and transparency of base oils produced by different oil sources and base genres** may be different.

2. Density. The density of lubricating oil increases with the increase of the amount of carbon, oxygen and sulfur in its composition, so that in the case of the same viscosity or the same relative molecular weight, the lubricating oil containing more aromatic hydrocarbons, the lubricating oil containing more gum and asphaltene has the highest density, the one containing more naphthenes is in the middle, and the one containing more alkanes is the smallest.

It doesn't belong.

Lubricating oil is not a hazardous chemical. Article 3 of the Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals: The hazardous chemicals referred to in these Regulations refer to highly toxic chemicals and other chemicals that have the properties of poisoning, corrosive cavity, bending, combustion, combustion, etc., and are harmful to the human body, facilities and the environment.

Lubricants are not dangerous goods only by their properties: they do not have flammable properties. Lubricants are not highly corrosive.

Lubricants are not volatile. Therefore, lubricating oil does not belong to dangerous goods, and it can be exempted from the regulations on the transportation and storage of dangerous goods. However, lubricants are also chemical products and must be stored and transported safely.

Lubricating oil is a liquid or semi-solid lubricant used in various types of automobiles and mechanical equipment to reduce friction and protect machinery and processed parts, mainly playing the role of lubrication, auxiliary cooling, rust prevention, cleaning, sealing and buffering (ROAB). As long as it is applied between two objects in relative motion, and can reduce the friction and wear caused by the contact between two objects, it is lubricating oil.
