Some people seem to want to further debate/discuss the following issue(s).
So the question is: Do modern Motor Oil Esters, such as described in (but not the only source of ester info)
http://theoildrop.server101.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=4;t=000056;p=1#000010
really posess a problem with
a. rust
b. hydrolysis
or
c. seal compatibility
in modern engine oils, hydraulic fluids, and gear lube formulations?
It would be advantageous if you presented chemical and tribological sources/data narrowly focused on the question above for your arguments.
[PS. This arose as a side issue from the following thread:
