Materials for Heavy Duty Engines are frequently attributed to the diesel engines found in freight transport vehicles. However, this category encompasses more than just freight transport vehicles and diesel engines.
Due to their lower emissions of nitrogen oxide and greenhouse gases, heavy duty engines powered by Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) are gaining popularity. Biodiesel, a renewable fuel derived from animals or plants, is another option for diesel.
Landfill gas (LFG) or biogas, which is made mostly of methane from organic waste and is another type of renewable energy used in heavy duty engines. Heavy duty engines are utilized in a variety of industrial applications, including freight movement vehicles, construction equipment (bulldozers, excavators), dump trucks, agricultural equipment, emergency vehicles, ships, locomotives, and others.
The landfill power generation plants use electricity generators and heavy-duty biogas engines. Any engine that the manufacturer could reasonably expect to be used as motive power in a heavy-duty vehicle is considered a heavy-duty engine material.
The term “engine” refers to both internal combustion engines and other devices that convert chemical fuel into power for the purposes of this definition. Cast iron, ferritic steel, austenitic steel, titanium alloys, nickel-based superalloys, and high temperature coatings are just a few of the material classes that make up these parts.
Iron base alloys like structural steels, stainless steels, iron base sintered metals, and cast iron and aluminum alloy parts for the piston, cylinder head, and cylinder block make up the majority of engine parts.
As a result, diesel engines can produce the necessary torque at low speeds for heavy load-carrying vehicles. Additionally, diesel engines are larger and heavier than gasoline engines. As a result, diesel engines need more room to fit.
The Global Heavy-Duty Engine materials market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
New Heavy-Duty Engine materials developed by the GSC R&D team with assistance from Indian Technology team members were showcased by GS Caltex. The event was graced by Ungsok Yang, Coordinator – GS Caltex, South Korea, who thanked the members of the GSC R&D and GSIPL teams for their collaborative efforts. The Kixx HDX CK-4 15W-40, the Kixx HVL line, and the Kixx Gear Syn GL-5 75W-90 were all brand-new items.
High-performance, heavy-duty engine oil in the premium category is Kixx HDX CK-4 15W-40. It is made with the most cutting-edge additive technology to provide outstanding protection for on- and off-highway applications, including GHG 17 and EPA 2010-compliant engines for Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD)-powered on-highway diesel vehicles and 2014-compliant off-highway diesel vehicles.
It conforms to API CK-4 heavy duty engine oil, which is designed for greenhouse gas (GHG 17) compliant diesel engines that are also compliant with EPA 2010 for low emission diesel engines that have Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems.
These engines are designed to produce lower CO2 emissions in addition to improved fuel economy. It works perfectly with previous API Oil Service Categories like the CJ-4, CI-4, CI-4 Plus, and CH-4, as well as previous engine models.
