How to prevent oxidation and deterioration of Lubricant Oil Tin Cans

1. Choose the right packaging material
Use tin-plated steel: Tin-plated steel is a common material for making Lubricant Oil Tin Cans. The tin layer has good corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, which can prevent oxygen and moisture from contacting the lubricant to a certain extent and play a protective role.
Use barrier coating: Applying a barrier coating on the inner wall of the tin can, such as epoxy resin coating, can further improve the barrier performance of the can, reduce the penetration of substances such as oxygen and moisture, and delay the oxidation process of the lubricant.
2. Optimize storage conditions
Control the storage temperature: The oxidation rate of lubricant oil is closely related to temperature. For every 10℃ increase in temperature, the oxidation rate increases by about one time. Therefore, Lubricant Oil Tin Cans should be stored in a cool, ventilated place, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperature environment. The ideal storage temperature is generally 15-25℃.
Avoid humid environment: Moisture will accelerate the oxidation and deterioration of lubricants, so make sure that the storage place is dry and the humidity is kept at a low level. Desiccant can be used to absorb moisture in the air to prevent condensation of water droplets on the surface of the can, thereby preventing moisture from entering the can.
3. Use appropriate sealing technology
Ensure that the lid is well sealed: The lid of the tin can should have good sealing performance. During the production process, the dimensional accuracy and sealing performance of the lid should be strictly controlled to ensure that the lid fits tightly with the can to prevent air from entering the can. During storage and use, it is also necessary to check the sealing of the lid. If there is damage or poor sealing, the lid should be replaced in time.
Filling with protective gas: After filling the lubricant oil, inert gas such as nitrogen can be filled into the tin can to exhaust the air in the can to form an oxygen-free environment, thereby effectively inhibiting the oxidation reaction of the lubricant oil.
