ABSTRACT

Fire-resistant hydraulic –uids are an essential component for the safe operation of hydraulic systems in many industries where there is a risk of re due to the presence of necessary ignition sources. Water-glycol (W/G) hydraulic –uids are the most widely used re-resistant type in the world today [1]. This is because they provide an optimum combination of re resistance, lubrication, corrosion protection, and economy of use for medium to high pressures and most other conditions required in industrial hydraulic systems.
