Interesting article on oil break down.

I'm no oil expert, actually no expert at all. After getting conflicting advice from my hyd shop and the owner's manual on my terramite I decided to go some surfing on oil break down. After reading a few articles on hyd oils and motor oils, I've decided to follow terramites recommendations, use motor oil and not Hydraulic oil.

Here is a clip form the article below:

Although distinctly different, thermal failure, oxidation and the effects of compressive heating all result in a change in the fundamental chemistry of the base oil molecules. However, because the changes that occur are often chemically different, it stands to reason that the observable effect - the used oil analysis test data - will also differ. For this reason, it is vital to assess how likely it is that each mechanism will occur, so that appropriate test slates can be devised to account for all likely scenarios.
