Using thermal analysis techniques for identifying the flash point temperatures of some lubricant and base oils

The flash point (FP) temperatures of some lubricant and base oils were measured according to ASTM D92 and ASTM D93. In addition, the thermal stability of the oils was studied using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under nitrogen atmosphere. The DSC results...
