Professional lubrication technicians frequently develop a strong familiarity with the base oil viscosity of their lubricants. After all, a base oil’s viscosity is its most crucial characteristic.
Baselines are established for incoming oils, and viscosity is used to check the lubricant’s condition only. But lubricants are more complex than just viscosity.
Understanding the role of additives and how they work within the lubricant is essential. Organic or inorganic chemicals that are dissolved or suspended as solids in oil are lubricant additives.
Depending on the equipment, they typically vary from 0.1 to 30 percent of the oil volume. Organic or inorganic chemicals that are dissolved or suspended as solids in oil are lubricant additives.
Depending on the equipment, they typically vary from 0.1 to 30 percent of the oil volume. is a versatile lubricant for machinery and engines used in agriculture and public works.
The use of polymerizable monomers as lubricant additives involves obtaining the majority of the monomer from natural and renewable sources.
More specifically, the essential elements of oil-based lubricants known as wax modifiers and viscosity index improvers (VIIs) are high-molecular-weight polymers made from higher alkyl methacrylate esters.
The Global Agricultural lubricant additives market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Clariant launched new Agricultural lubricant additives to assist the sustainable development of plastics.
Visitors at K 2022 can anticipate new Clariant additive solutions that will advance the development of more resource-efficient polymers.
Applications now have more resilience to facilitate prolonged use and reuse as we move toward circularity.
Additionally, overcome industrial obstacles while improving efficiency and reducing carbon emissions during compounding and processing.
Surface aesthetics are very important in how consumers judge the quality of consumer goods.
Licowax® AS 100 TP, a new anti-scratch additive from Clariant based on renewable raw materials, helps molded plastic products across a variety of consumer applications retain their original appearance and feel for longer.
This has the potential to significantly increase service life while also enhancing property retention and part reuse.
As a corrosion inhibitor additive for ashless lubrication systems, Cortec is pleased to offer M-535 HV, a high viscosity variant. Asset owners were only able to cover low viscosity lubrication systems with M-535 prior to this breakthrough.
With the introduction of M-535 HV, preservation managers have the choice to treat a wider variety of important equipment with the same corrosion inhibitor package.
Gearboxes, turbines, compressors, and other lubrication system-equipped machinery are particularly vulnerable during layup. Equipment is more susceptible to internal rust formation without regular working frequency.
A lot of difficulties might arise when the equipment is restarted because trapped moisture has time to condense on metal surfaces and corrode the system.
The metal components of a lubricating system can be significantly safeguarded by adding a corrosion-inhibiting oil additive during layup.
One such addition is Standard M-535, which is intended for use in ashless applications that use petroleum-based and synthetic lubricants like naphthenic, paraffinic, and PAO.
This means that corrosion inhibitors are active on surfaces in close proximity to the treated oil and disperse throughout the head space above the oil, where condensation can be a particular issue.
It protects in both the contact and vapour phase. Due to its multiphase activity, M-535 can be used as an oil additive or fogged into a drained system. M-535 provides protection at a low dose to improve economy.
Another benefit is that it can occasionally be left in the system for sporadic use during the layup period. Because M-535’s base oil has an ISO 46 viscosity, it is suited for low viscosity systems like turbines and compressors.
While the chemistry of M-535 HV is the same, the base oil viscosity is higher, bringing M-535 HV to ISO 320 for compatibility with high viscosity lubrication systems like those in gearboxes.
Given that gearboxes are ubiquitous in the industrial setting, preservation specialists frequently have the opportunity to temporarily shut down or lay up industrial facilities such as power plants, offshore platforms, paper manufacturing plants, or other facilities by using a high viscosity rust prevention additive.
New options for protecting ashless oil systems from corrosion are made possible by M-535 HV.
The effectiveness of any industrial layup plan can be significantly impacted by rust prevention, and M-535 HV ensures that protection includes high viscosity ashless lubricating oil systems.LANXESS introduced a lubricant additive for high-performance engine oils and passenger cars.
The new Additin RC 3502 was created with the express purpose of reducing friction while providing sustained performance and anti-wear protection.
The friction modifier is non-corrosive, suitable for use with all synthetic and mineral engine lubricants, and contains no SAPS (sulfated ash, phosphorus, and sulphur). LANXESS’s Additives business unit (ADD) provides a wide range of lubricant products for a variety of applications and sectors.
These goods—base oils, lubricant additives, additive packages, and specially formulated lubricants—assist customers in adhering to ever-tougher, legally mandated standards for emissions and fuel economy.
The latter is currently receiving particular attention from the automobile industry, and the new friction modifier from LANXESS takes advantage of this trend.
