Synthetic Lubricants |

What are synthetic lubricants?
 more information is available for our registered members
|
|
Synthetic lubricants are man-made formulations of chemicals that increase the performance and productivity of machinery.
Most synthetic lubricants are made from polyalphaolefin or ester base fluids and an additive package. The proportion of base fluid can be up to 75% of the formulation.

Why choose synthetic lubricants?
more information is available for our registered members
|
|
Because synthetic lubricants are composed of structurally uniform molecules with well-defined properties they offer several advantages over conventional oil and greases:
| • |
|
Excellent viscosity and temperature properties |
| • |
|
Good high temperature oxidation and thermal stability reduce deposits |
| • |
|
Good low temperature characteristics improve cold flow properties |
| • |
|
Low volatility reduces consumption |
These advantages all help to increase operational efficiency, reduce maintance costs and energy consumption.
