Features & Benefits
- Industrial Additives Features
- Features & Benefits
- Acts as a DPF problem solver for applications with rapid rates of soot buildup and minimizes back-pressure.
- Especially attractive for applications with any low temperature cycles in its exhaust profile.
- Initiates passive regeneration (soot oxidation) at low temperatures and more complete regeneration - no need to remove and bake.
- Minimize unscheduled maintenance and operations costs.
- Improves fuel economy and reduces CO: emissions 5 - 12 % (or more depending on engine and application).
- Innovative solution backed by 200 worldwide patents.
- Patented solution increases rate and completeness of fuel combustion.
- Reduces engine out particulate matter by up to 20% with ULSD and 30% with B20/ULSD, so there is less soot to collect in the DPF.
- Better combustion means less soot accumulation on turbocharger and other combustion exhaust components.

- Passive DPF Regeneration at Low Temperatures
Platinum Plus lowers soot oxidation temperature. Prevents run-away regeneration which can otherwise damage the integrity of the substrate and shorten the life of the DPF.
- Secondary Performance and Maintenance Benefits
- Visibly reduces smoke and opacity.
- Enhances water shedding, lubricity and stability.
- Superior detergents keep injectors clean.
- Less soot buildup in lube oils can result in reduced maintenance and potentially longer drain intervals.
- Sustainability and Bottom Line
- Helps achieve sustainability goals by lowering the carbon impact of diesel applications.
- Reduces CO2 by 5 - 12 % (or more depending on engine and application).
- Furthermore, reduces secondary GHG emissions of PM, HC and NOx.
- Lowers NO2 emissions for bio-diesel applications.
- Improves fuel economy by 5 - 12 % (or more depending on engine and application).
