The G80 chain is mainly used in conjunction with rigging to lift heavy objects, but aging phenomenon will inevitably occur during use. Why?
The increase in temperature will cause thermal crosslinking of the G80 chain, increase the diffusion rate of oxygen in the air and the different reactions of activated oxygen, and may further accelerate the oxidation rate of the G80 chain and promote its further aging.
Mechanical action will also cause the G80 chain to continue to age. Under the repeated action of the machine and the long-term friction of the roller, the G80 chain will break the molecules in the chain into free molecules, which will trigger the oxidation chain reaction and cause the 80-level chain to age.
Moisture is an important factor affecting the aging of the G80 chain. When the grade 80 chain is immersed in humid air or water, it is easy to accelerate the aging of the grade 80 chain by causing water-soluble substances and water groups to be dissolved by water extraction or hydrolysis or absorption.
Other factors will also cause the aging of the G80 chain, such as chemical media, high-energy radiation, electricity and biology, etc. will cause the aging of the G80 chain to varying degrees.
