PAO’s are Group IV high-performance synthetic base stocks made by the reaction of linear alpha olefins.
Due to the way they are synthesised PAO oils are a highly stable, consistent, wax-free combination of molecules of predetermined chain length.
PAOs are used for their higher viscosity index, lower temperature flow characteristics, low volatility, high oxidative and thermal stability.
This advanced synthetic base oil is a high-performance polyalphaolefin (PAO), created using metallocene catalyst technology. It’s designed to provide you with better blending efficiency and performance capabilities than conventional synthetic PAO.
SpectraSyn Elite™ mPAO offers formulators the flexibility to develop innovative finished lubricants to meet the growing demand for energy efficiency and product durability.
Well suited for industrial oils requiring high stability under severe operating conditions. Can be used in combination with lower viscosity fluids (PAO, mineral oils) to achieve a wide range of industrial and automotive lubricants and greases.
SpectraSyn™ Hi Vis (High Viscosity) PAO (polyalphaolefins) increase base stock viscosity and upgrade lubricant quality with blend components especially suited for industrial oils requiring high stability under harsh operating conditions. Their high viscosity indices translate into improved flow at low temperatures and increased film thickness at high temperatures. In addition to being shear stable and hydrolytically stable, they have good compatibility with mineral oils.
SpectraSyn™ Hi Vis PAO are particularly well suited for industrial oils requiring high stability under extreme operating conditions. They are frequently used with lower-viscosity fluids (PAO, mineral oils) as a viscosity booster to achieve a wide range of ISO VG industrial and automotive gear oils.
SpectraSyn™ Lo-Vis PAO is used to formulate synthetic lubricants and for upgrading mineral oil base stocks. This can be added to mineral oils to gain better low-temperature properties, low volatility and improved thermal stability. They can also be combined with SpectraSyn™ Hi Vis PAO , SpectraSyn Elite™ mPAO and Synesstic™ AN (Alkylated Naphthalene) Blendstocks to formulate cross-grade engine and automotive gear oils as well as various ISO VG industrial oils.
Used as the primary base stock for synthetic lubricants in a variety of applications, including:
*the number relates to viscosity at 100 C
With SpectraSyn Plus™ Advanced PAO you can gain an unsurpassed combination of volatility and low-temperature fluidity (Noack and CCS viscosity) relative to conventional polyalphaolefins (PAO).
Product and customer insights
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
