Initial work on the test began in Lubrizol’s research and development laboratories and culminated only after years of research and testing. The test addresses an industry-wide need to develop a corrosion test that accurately measures the performance of lubricants at actual application temperatures. The test is pertinent to all applications where corrosion is a concern and is particularly relevant in assessing copper corrosion in electrified powertrains.

The test was validated and widespread use made practical through the collaboration of industry partners in the automotive and e-mobility space.

“SAE International’s recognition of this important development in corrosion testing is gratifying, as it illustrates the impact Lubrizol researchers have on the industry as a whole,” said Brenna Huovie, Vice President of Additives Technology at Lubrizol. “The Wire Corrosion Test is a shining example of the way collaboration and ingenuity can take a scientific concept through to commercial application.”

This achievement comes on the heels of several award wins and recognition Lubrizol has recently received, including customer, industry and innovation recognition across its portfolio. Earlier this year, the Wire Corrosion Test was recognized by the Rosefield Energy Tech Awards for technological advancement. In addition, Lubrizol secured the IRI Innovation Excellence Award for Digital and Technological Innovation for its Q.LIFE® testing and data analytics system.

BREAKING NEWS: Swedes First in World to Become Smoke Free – It’s a Lesson for the World Says Smoke Free Sweden13.11.2024 11:16:00 CET | Press Release

SENSATIONAL government figures released today show that Swedes have made history by becoming officially ‘smoke free’. Swedes have hit this remarkable milestone 16 years ahead of the European Union target - while most of their fellow member states are set to miss it by some distance. Official health datareleased by Sweden’s public health agency show that just 4.5% of the nation’s Swedish-born adults smoke - significantly below the globally recognised benchmark of 5% for smoke free status. Average smoking rates in Europe (24%) are five times higher than Sweden’s. The Swedes’ extraordinary success is the result of their pioneering policy approach to safer alternatives to cigarettes. Dr. Delon Human, leader of Smoke Free Sweden, said: “This outstanding achievement marks a significant moment in global public health and stands as a testament to the progressive policies that have guided Sweden's approach to tobacco control. “In the early 1960s, nearly half of Swedish men smoked.
