Turbine Oils Market: Introduction
- Turbine oils are high quality oils with excellent water-separating properties. These oils are primarily used as lubricants for turbine applications such as steam, hydro, and gas turbine applications.
- Turbine oil formulations are comparatively simple. These are a mixture of the following ingredients: Base oil, corrosion inhibitors, oxidation inhibitors, defoamants, and demulsifiers.
- Conventional turbine oils were mineral based, and were maintained to eliminate external contamination & oxidation products
