Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

Introduction
Mineral oil is used in manufacturing processes of industrial products, for applications such as cutting,
lubrication and cooling. Oil remaining on the surface of products has to be cleaned during operation
and at the end of the process. The main cleaning solvent fluids used in these industries are solvent
based (e.g. hydrocarbon detergent liquids, bromine-containing detergents, and alkali detergents),
despite it being well known that such detergents can cause environmental pollution such as ozone layer
depletion, water pollution, etc.
As an ecological alternative, fine bubble technology, which does not use detergents, is becoming popular.
Use of fine bubble technology improves resource sustainability, energy saving and safety, as it uses less
water and no chemical substances.
This document is intended to provide a procedure that can help demonstrating the cleaning performance
of such technology, so that different methodologies can be compared.

Part 2:
Test method for cleaning machine-oil stained surfaces of
machined metal parts
1 Scope
This document specifies a test method for removal of machine oil stain from a noncorrosive metal
surface using fine bubble water. A test is provided to show the comparative cleaning advantage of
adding fine bubbles to the water.

3.1
oil cleaning index
number representing the residual oil removed from the test surface after cleaning
4 Principle
Evaluate the performance of test oil removal by fine bubble water by measuring the amount of residual
oil with fine bubble water applied and not applied. Evaluation of the performance is made by comparing
the oil cleaning index of test oil on the surface of the test piece with fine bubble water applied to a
control sample using ordinary water.
The residual oil is measured using an oil content meter based on infrared spectroscopy.

5 Reagents and materials
5.1 Water, which usually has been treated and conforms to grades of water given in ISO 3696.
5.2 Test oil. The test oil used to coat the test surface shall be triolein or an oil agreed between the
parties concerned. An example of infrared spectrum of the test oil applied for oil content meter is given
in Annex B.
5.3 Extraction solvent, containing 65 % to 75 % (mass fraction) of extracted chloro-tri-fluoro-ethylene
dimer (Cl(CF2CDCl)2Cl) and 25 % to 35 % (mass fraction) of extracted chloro-trifluoro-ethylene trimer
chloro-tri-fluoro-ethylene tetramer [Cl(CF CFCl) Cl]. See Reference [1].

6.1 Test equipment
Figure 1 shows a typical example of equipment, where the difference in result between the operation
with fine bubble generating system on and off can be compared. The dimensions of the cleaning tank
shall be as given in Figure 1.
a) The inside dimension of the cleaning tank shall be (280 ± 10) mm × (230 ± 10) mm × (340 ± 10) mm.
b) The inside diameter of the cleaning stream outlet shall (13 ± 0,1) mm.
c) The centre of the test piece shall be placed at (100 ± 10) mm distance from the cleaning stream
outlet, and (115 ± 10) mm distance from the side wall of the tank.
d) The centre of the test piece shall be placed on the axis of the outlet.
