Yes, non-detergent oil is generally considered non-foaming. This type of oil lacks additives that promote foam formation, making it suitable for applications where foaming could be detrimental, such as in certain engines and hydraulic systems. Its formulation helps maintain stable performance by reducing the likelihood of air entrapment and foam, ensuring smoother operation.
simethecone and other non-foaming detergents are good anti-foaming agents.
Like dissolves like. Water and oil do not mix because water molecules are polar (i.e., having either a positive or negative charge) and oil molecules are non-polar. Detergent molecules have a polar end and a non-polar end; think of a jellyfish with its head representing the polar side and its tails representing the non-polar end. In water, detergent molecules group themselves to form cage-like micelles, exposing the polar heads to water and shielding the non-polar tails. Detergent's non-polar ends stick to oil, and the detergent's polar head is soluble in water. With sufficient amount of detergent, the detergent molecules trap the oil molecules in cage-like micelles that are soluble in water. Rinse off the detergent with trapped oil and wallah! No more oil and grease! :-)
Mixing detergent and oil is generally not recommended, as detergents are designed to emulsify and break down oils, which can lead to inconsistent results in cleaning or processing. If you're referring to mixing a detergent with a specific type of oil, such as cooking oil, it may not produce the desired effect and could create an undesirable mixture. Always refer to product guidelines for the best practices in mixing substances.
Do you know the phrase " Like dissolves like "? it means that polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and non-polar substances dissolve non-polar substances. Oil is non-polar, while water is a polar substance. To help oil and water mix, molecules of a detergent have two halves- the hydrophilic half and the hydrophobic half. The hydrophilic part of the molecule is polar, which dissolves water molecules. The hydrophobic part is non-polar, so it dissolves the oil molecules. So, basically, detergent can dissolve both oil and water, mixing them effectively.
Oil and water do not mix when detergent is added. What really happens is that (in the usual case) the detergent (which has "oil-like" and "water-like" parts to each molecule) causes the oil to disperse through the water in tiny droplets which have the detergent on the surface of the droplets, making them much more stable than tiny droplets of oil would be in water. The detergent is usually charged, which makes the droplets repel each other, preventing the tiny oil droplets from reuniting into larger droplets, which is what happens if you vigorously shake an oil water mixture, like salad dressing - that's why oil and vinegar salad dressing has to be used right after preparation. Oil, water, and detergent is still not a true mixture, since the oil and the water are not really "mixed" in the true sense of the word, but they appear mixed to the eye since the oil particles are too small to be seen with the naked eye. There is one more requirement for this apparent "mixing" after adding detergent: there has to be a LOT more water or a LOT more oil in the mixture. You can't make an apparent mixture of a 50:50 blend of oil and water by adding detergent, for example. This means that you can have tiny droplets of water surrounded by detergent in a large amount of oil as well as the more usual case outlined above. That is called a "reverse emulsion" while the more common case above is a "simple emulsion." It's also the reason why detergent is effective to clean clothes. It "emulsifies" the oils (which soiled clothes are contaminated with) allowing them to be flushed away. Zentrails
It has to be a non detergent oil
Detergent! Do not use non-detergent oil.
No, it is still possible to but non-detergent oil.No, it is still possible to but non-detergent oil.
The foaming capacity of soap is determined by how much detergent is in it. Less detergent means little foaming while more detergent will have more foam.
No, 30 wt or 30 weight oil is a non-detergent oil whereas SAE30 is a detergent oil. Read the label on each container. Any motor oil which is non-detergent blend will be clearly marked as such. Conversely, any oil which is not specifically marked as non-detergent is by default, a detergent blend. Most non-detergent oils will be marked as ND30.
NO!!!! Absolutely not.
Most will say right on front of oil conatiner.
SAE oil can be either detergent or non-detergent, depending on its formulation. Non-detergent oils lack additives that help keep engine parts clean by suspending contaminants, making them suitable for older engines or specific applications where such additives may not be desired. It's important to check the oil's specifications or labels to determine if it is detergent or non-detergent.
High Detergent as opposed to Non Detergent
Non-detergent oil, such as SAE 30, is not used in modern passenger vehicle engines. It is still used in some gasoline engines such as lawnmowers.
no iso 100 is same as 40 non detergent
NO, in fact just the opposite is true. Most synthetics are detergent blends. You can however buy a non detergent synthetics.
