1) Oil meets the requirements of the SAE standard and can be safely called 5W-30.
2) Viscosity at 100C = 10.48 - typical for ACEA A5 with HTHS 2.9-3.1 mPas, as a rule. There is a reserve from a quick transition to SAE 20 when you pour fresh oil into the engine and it mixes with the non-worn residue in the crankcase.
3) Alkaline number = 9.97 - good washing / neutralizing properties.
4) Acid 2.36 is a standard indicator for full-bed pans.
5) Sulfate ash = 1.27% - normal for a full-salt pans with a high base number.
6) Pour point -40С - normal for 5W-30 on crack.
7) Viscosity of imitation of cold scrolling with a starter at -30С = 6290 mPas - in cold weather down to -30С a start on this oil is provided, but there is no reserve. But the base should be more thermostable due to thicker base oils, unlike those with CCS 3000-4000 mPas. NOACK mass evaporation should be about 10%.
8) Sulfur content = 0.383 - acceptable, speaks about Calcium sulfonates as a detergent package.
9) The oil contains a friction modifier in the form of MoDTC with Molybdenum in the amount of 745 ppm. Molybdenum reduces friction and side wear and also saves some fuel along the way.
10) ZDDP-based anti-wear additives - a pair of zinc and phosphorus in a typical amount for a full-bed charger.
Conclusion: Excellent special product from Total for Kia / Hyundai (and not only). It is suitable for everyone who has been prescribed A5 oils and especially for Molybdenum lovers.
