Kinematic viscosity at 40°C and at 100°C |
Basic property of a lubricant. Informs about thickness
of an oil film, lubricity and hydraulic properties. Successful lubrication
in most cases is a result of viscosity. Viscosity changes due to oxidation
or contamination. |

Viscosity Index (VI) |
How higher the viscosity index how thinner
the oil at low temperature and how thicker the oil at high temperatures.
Is the lubricant still a multigrade oil? Informs about the stability of
multigrade VI Improvers. |
