Abstract
IN 1929, under the auspices of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, a paper (Lubrication Research, Technical Paper No. 1) by the late Sir William Hardy and M. E. Nottage on the analysis of commercial lubricating oils by physical methods was prepared. It was considered, however, inadvisable to draw conclusions from the results of experiments reported therein, since only two oils, and those of unknown origin, had been employed. A further paper by Miss Nottage recently published under similar conditions (Lubrication Research, Technical Paper No. 2. London: H.M. Stationery Office. 9d. net) entitled “A Study of the Boundary Lubricating Value of Mineral Oils of Different Origin“is intended in certain respects to supplement the original one.
