A lubricant\u2019s resistance to oxidation is decided by the very base oil chosen as well as the components of the additive package. It is worth mentioning that, while some additives classified as antioxidants and corrosion inhibitors can protect the lubricant and equipment respectively, there are some additives that may reduce oxidation resistance. This is an example of why formulation balancing is key to success, while overtreating a product with excessive additives can be counter-productive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two tests reported most frequently on data sheets for oxidation resistance are established American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) methods.
