- Product Highlights
Industrial and automotive gear applications demand base stocks that can withstand the stress and shear of high loads. Oven and freezer conveyor chains must function at temperature extremes with no smoke or deposit formation. Synthetic esters with high oxidative and thermal stability provide excellent lubricity, boundary lubrication and viscosity boost, delivering long life and smooth operating performance in both gear and chain applications. Synthetic esters are available in a wide variety of viscosity grades and deliver an excellent combination of oxidative stability, low temperature fluidity, lubricity and high viscosity index in greases formulated with high performance thickeners. Low volatility and a favorable eco-toxicity profile make synthetic esters an excellent choice for greases that are used in outdoor partial loss applications or in environmentally sensitive areas. Polymeric esters are high viscosity lubricant additive components that are used as thickeners, tackifiers and lubricity additives in industrial grease applications. They are thermally and oxidatively stable with high polarity, enabling them to deliver outstanding film-forming and wear protection performance. Polymeric esters are readily biodegradable, environmentally friendly, shear stable additives that boost viscosity index boost for improved lubrication efficiency.
The LEXOLUBE Z series polymeric esters have high polarity, making them insoluble in highly paraffinic mineral oil or PAO synthetic Group IV base stocks. They are recommended for use in polar base stocks like polyol esters, phosphate esters and alkylated aromatics, and can be can be tailor made to a wide range of viscosity specifications. LEXOLUBE Z series polymeric esters are also used as plasticizers for polar resins such as PVC.
