DetALP® 360 is a heavy alkylate (HAB) primarily composed of aromatic oils derived from dialkylbenzenes, resulting as a by-product of linear alkylbenzene (LAB) production. This versatile substance finds utility as a lubricant for air conditioning compressors, heat transfer oil, dielectric fluids for transformer cooling, lubricating greases, an additive in diesel engine oils, a sulfonated additive with surfactant properties for enhancing oil recovery, and as a base for synthetic lubricants suitable for industrial use at lower temperatures. It also serves as a solvent for various applications, including tar, inks, metal surface treatment products, and plastic materials.
