The writer James Greenwood journalist James Greenwood , in 1883 in literature 1883 , put these words in the mouth of the quackery street doctor Dr. Quackinbosh , in his series of articles Toilers in London, by One of the Crowd , originally Serial literature serial ized in the Daily Telegraph When I first started I worked Woolwich with my miraculous Nine Oils.

Naphthenic oil is a type of mineral oil . In contrast with paraffin ic oils, naphthenic oils contain only low to no proportion of n alkane s, being based on cycloalkane s naphthenes instead. The low temperature behavior of naphthenic oils is better than of paraffinic oils, making them suitable for applications that require low pour point . The degradation products of naphthenic oils are soluble in the oils, leading to fewer problems with formations of sludge s and deposits. Naphthenic oils have different solvent properties than paraffinic oils. Naphthenic oils are characterized by high proportion of cyclic hydrocarbon fraction. The convention is that when the paraffinic carbon content is less than 55 60 , the oil is labeled as naphthenic. http www.imakenews.com lng e article000501390.cfm?x b9WGFMC,bd1Rfpn,w The principal uses of naphthenic oils are as transformer oil s, coolant s, solvent s, cutting fluid s, and some lubricant s.
