Trilene® CP-1100

1 of 11 products in this brand
Trilene® CP-1100 is a low molecular weight ethylene-propylene liquid copolymer, randomly polymerized to produce a liquid elastomer with a stable, saturated hydrocarbon backbone. It has thermal and oxidation stability under normal conditions. Trilene® CP-1100 can be used as a high viscosity thickener for a wide range of lubricant products providing good shear stability and low temperature characteristics.

Product Uses

Trilene® CP-1100 can be used as a high viscosity base fluid or thickener – viscosity index improver or viscosity modifier – for a wide variety of engine and industrial lubricating oils, both mineral oil and synthetic based. Some examples:

  • Gear Oils – both automotive and industrial
  • Bearing Lubricants / Circulating Oils
  • Compressor Oils  
  • Greases

Trilene® CP-1100 is a viscous liquid, similar to conventional VI improvers. Typical usage levels for various high viscosity ISO grade products can be estimated using the chart at the bottom.

Lion Elastomers Trilene CP-1100 Product Uses - 1Low temperature characteristics are very important in synthetic lubricants. Some typical results, using Trilene® CP-1100, are demonstrated at the bottom.

Lion Elastomers Trilene CP-1100 Product Uses - 2The low molecular weight of the Trilene® CP-1100 means excellent shear stability. Examples, using the Sonic Shear and KRL (20 hour Tapered Bearing Shear Test) techniques are shown at the bottom.
