Solutions by Application

Engine Oils

  • VISCOPLEX® – Viscosity index improvers, pour point depressants, additives of emulsion retention and anti-icing for viscosity control across the operating temperature range and low-temperature flow performance.

Transmission Fluids & Gear Oils

  • VISCOBASE® – Advanced and cost effective high shear-stably synthetic base stock with intrinsic additive package solubility for smooth gear shifting and wear protection for both light and heavy duty vehicles.
  • VISCOPLEX® – viscosity index improvers, pour point depressants and defoamer additives for viscosity-controlled lubricants for both light and heavy duty vehicles.

Hydraulic Fluids

  • DYNAVIS® – A technology for formulating hydraulic fluids that maintain their viscosity over a broad temperature range through elevated viscosity index and high shear stability. In carefully designed and monitored field tests, hydraulic equipment operating with DYNAVIS®-formulated fluids demonstrated up to 5–15 % more hydraulic power under full-load conditions and up to 5–15 % lower energy consumption to complete the same amount of work, compared with a conventional monograde fluid of the same ISO viscosity class.

Greases & Specialty Lubricants

  • AEROSIL® – Rheology control for stable, high-performance greases.
  • ADOGEN®, REWOCOROS®, TOMAMINE®, VARONIC®, TEGO® Antifoam – Specialty additives for lubrication, corrosion protection, and foam control.

E-Mobility Solutions

  • VISCOBASE® & VISCOPLEX® – Support viscosity control and formulation flexibility in e-drive fluids.
  • AEROSIL® – Enhances heat dissipation and stability in EV greases.

Shock Absorber Fluid

  • VISCOPLEX® - For reliable performance throughout the entire service life of a vehicle or industrial plant - even at extreme temperatures.
