Not so long ago, a new fairly running goods appeared in the auto shops - automotive additives. Experts tested the compositions of additives, and found that some funds are not only useless, but are able to apply unrelated damage devices. Therefore, before purchasing such additives, it is necessary to find out which it will be better, and what devices can and it is necessary to use in a particular case. Do not forget that the efficiency of the individual mechanism and the vehicle as a whole depends on the correct choice.

Motor additives, characteristics and tasks

The additive for the engine is a similar lubricant substance that is added to the motor oil to achieve different purposes. By destination, these funds can be divided into several types.

• Antifriction or restoration additives.Their appointment is to restore the inner surface of a power unit having a large mileage. They cover small cracks, which are in the walls of the cylinder, which increase the compression and power of the motor. Also additives help remove the nap and dirt inside the engine.
  
  During the operation of the power unit, any motor oil loses its properties. This is especially intense this happens immediately after changing the oil, especially with the city cycle of movement. Additives compensate for the aging of the elements of the package of dummy oil. They reduce the toxicity of exhaust gases, fuel consumption and reduce friction losses.
  Do not believe in reducing fuel consumption for twenty percent. In reality, they save savings within 3-7 percent, which is also a good result. The maximum savings will be under conditions of small loads and when the motor is idling at idle. When rated power mode, such an effect actually disappears.
• Additives positively affecting the compression of the engine.For motors with a slight mileage, they are able to equalize compression indicators in all cylinders, and for power units with large mileage - restore compression to 1.0-1.5 bar. Additives smoothed the engine surface surfaces, reducing the size and height of micronether. The explanation is quite simple: the composition of the drugs includes "building material", closeing damaged surfaces.
  
• Fuel-saving additives.Clean the fuel system of the vehicle from the dirt contained in the fuel. These additives are necessary when there is a decrease in the power of the motor, that is, the car begins to "shy". Apply once in one or two years. There are also additives that need to be added to the benzobac. They are designed to remove condensate and water, which accumulate in the fuel tank.
• Stabilizers oil. Antiskible additives.Stabilize the oil at high temperatures and restore the additive package. Suppress the appearance of nagar on the walls of the combustion chamber, which occurs as a result of wear of the oil-circuit cap and the cylindrophone group. Stabilize the viscosity of lubricant material when heated, which prevents the pressure drop in the lubricant system. These additives reduce the smoke, waste oil and the noise of the operation of the power unit.

Fuel Additives Characteristics and Tasks

Additives are introduced into fuel during the operation of the vehicle in order to improve its properties and remove the formed ingotable and deposits. In retail trade, mixtures are often proposed, packaged in tin cans or plastic bottles with a capacity of 236-473 milliliters. Together with the basic properties, detergent, water-making and octanes, these mixtures have other additional properties, for which they are introduced into their composition:

• StabilizersWhich prevent fuel oxidation during storage.
• Catalysts I.initiatorswhich reduce the nagar formation and intensify the process of burning fuel.
• Anticorrosiveadditiveswhich reduce the damage to the metals, which is caused by the aggressive substances that are contained in combustion and fuel products.
• Friction modifiersforming a film that reduces friction losses and protects the pairs from wear.
• Accommodation additiveswhich accelerate the acquisition of the driving elements of the motor after repair.
• Starting additiveswhich improve fuel flammability, as they have good evaporation.

Additives in the gearbox, characteristics and tasks

Additives in the gearbox give the opportunity:

1. Compensate the gaps that arise as a result of a strong work out.
2. Extend the service life of the PPC elements, further reduce the force of friction.
3. Create protection against corrosion.
4. Reduce the effect of high temperatures and temperature drops for metal.
5. Protect from oxidation oil.

Each additive has its own positive and negative sides. Some create insufficiently reliable protection, others do not affect the temperature regimen of the CAT, and the third initially increase the quality of the node function, after which it increases its production. Therefore, it is necessary to know how different types of additives act and how to use them.

There are six types of additives for PPC:

• Melting. It is possible to clean the elements from pollution and destroy the accumulated flare.
• Antiques. Increase the oil foaming temperature.
• Viscous. Change the temperature viscosity of the oil.
• Antifriction. Eliminate either prevent a detrimental effect of friction between elements.
• Antioxidative. Slow the process of aging oil and warn its oxidation. Prevent the appearance of an air layer between metal and oil.
• Anticorrosive. Warning the appearance of rust.

Plant additives manufacturer in oil than they differ from additional additives

Let's start with the fact that the oil (transmission, motor and so on) is designed to lubricate all moving elements covering them with a special protective film that reduces friction and wear. Oil cools moving elements, protects them from corrosion, sediments and dirt. All modern oils include basic oils and additives. That is, in the oil that you acquire in the store, additives are already present. Base + additives \u003d oil. The base is the base of oil (synthetic, mineral).

Additives are added to the base oil to improve its properties (energy-saving, detergents, anti-corrosion, viscous, antioxidant, antisolio-resistant, and so on) and obtaining the desired oil (diesel, engine, summer, and so on). The influence of these additives is aimed at creating the required properties and consumer quality oils. Such additives affect oil throughout its service life and do not affect the surface of moving elements. Over time, this set of additives is able to lose its properties as a result of various influences, such as oxidation, high temperatures and so on. The oil is old and you change it to a new one, in which there are also additives.

Additional supplements to the oil are also called additives, however, they are not like that because they do not change the properties of the oil. They have completely different tasks, namely: the impact on the surface of friction of rubbing elements. If you get into the friction zone, these additives perform a change in the parts themselves - the condition and size of the surfaces changes, cracks and jackets are filled in the contact area of \u200b\u200bmoving parts. They reduce friction and restore the initial profile of the surfaces of the rubbing elements. As you can see, the difference between them is huge.
