Temperature‐dependent effects in base oils: Carbon‐13 NMR spin‐lattice relaxation time and viscometry studies

Carbon‐13 NMR spin‐lattice relaxation time (T1) data have been used to study the molecular dynamic aspects of base oils with different physical properties. Relaxation time measurements have been carried out on a few model compounds and a number of mineral base oils at various temperatures (273–373 K). Effective correlation time (°C) and rotational mobility data obtained for the model compounds and base oils have provided evidence of relationships between molecular flexibility and the temperature dependence of viscosity. It is possible to determine the average carbon alkyl chain lengths and the molecular weights of the base oils from the ratio of the T1 values of Cβ and Cint carbons and the optimised value of the microviscosity factor (fr), respectively. A qualitative correlation between Arrhenius energies (Ea) for microscopic motion and macroscopic bulk properties such as viscosity and viscosity‐temperature characteristics has been observed. Base fluids having better viscosity‐temperature characteristics were also associated with lower values of Ea for micro‐ as well as macroscopic processes.
