- Applications
- Biocea additives are used in a variety of metalworking and metal forming fluid formulations for all 4 major classes of metalworking fluids: straight oil, soluble oil, semisynthetic, and synthetic metalworking fluids.
- Biocea additives can be used as high-performance lubricity additives, that meet (and often exceed) the technology requirement needed in modern machining techniques.
- Biocea additives are considered to be the best biobased choice for multi-purpose or general-purpose applications in neat oils, soluble oils, and semi-synthetic fluids. They have good solubility in all base oils, and easily emulsify in water-based chemistries.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Technical Performance Data
Biosynthetic Technologies Biocea additives provide excellent lubricity, film strength, and improved tool life when compared to other lubricity additives. In addition to superior oxidative stability, Biocea additives provide excellent wear protection as well as industry-leading hydrolytic stability. Below, please find the ranking for the leading metalworking fluid additives performance features, and see how Biocea additives outperform the most commonly used additives available in the market today.
Performance Feature Biocea™ II Lubricity ✓ ✓ Film Strength ✓ ✓ ✓ Anti-Wear ✓ ✓ ✓ Improved Tool Life ✓ ✓ Increased Polarity ✓ ✓ Hydrolytic Stability ✓ ✓ ✓ - CADRE Method
Biocea additives have been evaluated through a revolutionary new method known as the CADRE Method. This is a new innovative modeling software used to safely determine skin sensitization concerns without requiring any animal testing. Biocea additives show no signs of dermal irritation or allergic sensitization. The lack of odor and skin irritation make these additives extremely suitable for metalworking fluid applications while promoting a safe work environment.
