Manufacturer's description

eni CODIUM L are special oils for the textile industries, formulated using colourless oils that, due to their extreme degree of refining, are free of those hydrocarbons whose nature makes them the most difficult to remove. A particular additive treatment gives these products certain features which distinguish them as superlative textile oils.

Applications

• Lubrication of the movements of looms and other weaving machinery.

Performance & benefits

•  eni CODIUM L family are top-quality oils with the following features common to all the viscosity grades: excellent anti-rust properties for protection of lubricated components, optimum adhesive and antidrip properties, good washability for removal of any traces of oil from the fabric, free of coloration to minimize any effects of residual contamination after washing.  eni CODIUM L 46 is expressly intended for lubrication of knitting machine movements and spinning and cabling rings. An oil for the movements of knitting machines must have the following properties:  high oxidation stability, to avoid formation of deposits and sludge which can make start-up difficult, compromise the regular operation of the delicate mechanisms, as well as contaminating the finished article with oxidized material which impairs the washing process;  good washability, to enable effective removal of eventual traces of oil on the finished article;  anti-rust properties, to avoid corrosion of components operating in very damp environments;  anti-static properties, to counteract the deleterious effects of static electricity.  For spinning and cabling rings efficient lubrication is needed to facilitate their rotation, improve their smoothness, reduce noise, prevent excessive wear and reduce yarn breakage. In this application too, washability properties are required, since the oil may come into contact with the yarn and stain it. Oxidation resistance and rust protection are also desirable properties.  eni CODIUM L 46, thanks to a careful choice of base oils and the additives incorporated, offers a full measure of all the above mentioned properties, needed for this particular application.  eni CODIUM L 100 has been expressly developed for the movements of looms and
