What happens when Boron CLS Bond® is mixed with high-performance synthetic motor oils? Is the function of these oils deteriorated or is the motor damaged?
The purpose of a motor oil is basically to build up a lubricating film between working metal surfaces in the motor. The main purpose of this lubrication film is to reduce friction. Without it, the working metal surfaces would grind so heavily on each other that extensive amounts of frictional heat are developed. The cause of this heat development is extreme abrasion and wear of the metal surfaces leading shortly to irreversible damage of the engine (piston jamming). The ability of the motor oil to build up the protective lubrication film is heavily dependant on the temperature of the motor oil. The “ideal” motor oil has a low viscosity and a good wetting behaviour for temperatures ranging from -30°C (engine start in the winter) to several hundreds of °C (250km/h on the high-way). It is chemically stable under high temperatures and pressures and does not burn-up while the engine runs. Unfortunately, no real motor oil can satisfy all these requirements at the same time. That is, all of t
