- Product Highlights
Diesters are low to medium viscosity synthetic base stocks that have two ester groups. Most diesters are made from a dibasic acid combined with monofunctional alcohols, while a polyol diester is made from a synthetic glycol and monofunctional acids.
Diesters are known for outstanding low temperature properties, lubricity and solvency. The polar ester groups provide excellent high temperature stability and low temperature fluidity. When comparing diesters to hydrocarbon oils and other synthetics with the same viscosity, a diester fluid will have a higher flash point, lower volatility and better thermal stability. Diesters improve additive solubility and seal conditioning, while offering natural high viscosity index thats boosts lubrication efficiency.
