Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydraulic oils, and more particularly to a hydraulic oil composition and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the discovery of increasing oil and gas resources in polar regions, polar resource exploitation has become a hot international topic, and the development of associated polar machinery and equipment, along with supporting hydraulic fluids, has emerged as a new trend. Polar regions experience consistently low temperatures; the average annual temperature at the North Pole is -23°C, with an average winter temperature of -34°C and minimum temperatures reaching below -50°C. To ensure normal equipment startup at low temperatures, hydraulic oils must be usable in environments below -50°C. Furthermore, the temperature fluctuation during hydraulic motor operation can reach as high as 120°C, placing even greater demands on the viscosity-temperature properties of hydraulic oils. CN112430491A provides a hydraulic oil with excellent low-temperature performance and long service life, but it cannot guarantee safety under high-temperature operating conditions, and its kinematic viscosity is high at low temperatures. Therefore, developing a hydraulic oil more suitable for polar regions to ensure the startup and operation of equipment in extremely cold areas is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
