Gear Oils & Transmission Systems
- NUFLUX® Technology based on VISCOBASE® synthetic base stocks – an easy-to-apply, field-proven, and cost-effective solution for high-performance gear oils to enhance equipment durability, reduce maintenance requirements, and extend oil drain intervals of industrial gearboxes — even under harsh conditions and high thermal stress such as mining equipment. NUFLUX® Technology and VISCOBASE® help gearbox and machine manufacturers meet the most stringent requirements while providing superior operational efficiency. These benefits significantly contribute to lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO) for end users.
Gear Oils for Wind Power
- NUFLUX® technology, powered by VISCOBASE® synthetic base stocks – this formulation concept delivers a cost-efficient, ready-to-use solution for advanced lubricant formulations. Wind turbine gear oils developed with VISCOBASE® meet multiple original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications and have completed long-term field testing, including those for the most powerful gearboxes available today.
Hydraulic Fluids for Mobile Equipment
- DYNAVIS® Performance Standard – a high-performance standard for energy-efficient hydraulic fluids formulated with VISCOPLEX® viscosity improvers. It combines a high viscosity index with outstanding shear stability to maintain consistent performance under severe operating conditions. Designed for mobile and heavy-duty hydraulic systems, these fluids ensure reliable operation across wide temperature ranges, improving energy efficiency and component protection under high load and continuous operation.
Hydraulic Fluids for Manufacturing Equipment
- DYNAVIS® Performance Standard – featuring energy-efficient hydraulic fluids formulated with VISCOPLEX® viscosity improvers. These fluids have a high viscosity index and exceptional shear stability. They are engineered for use in stationary industrial and chemical processing equipment such as hydraulic pump-motor systems, injection molding machines, and hydraulic filter presses, where long fluid life, thermal stability, and reliable system performance are required. These fluids enhance equipment reliability, lower maintenance requirements, and extend service intervals, resulting in a reduced total cost of ownership.
Gear Oils & General Lubricants
Compressor Oils
Around one-fifth of industrial power consumption is dedicated to compressing air and process gases for applications such as chemical processes, power generation, and industrial manufacturing. Refrigerant compressors and, increasingly, heat pumps are extensively used, being responsible for significant electricity consumption. Therefore, improving compressor efficiency is crucial for reducing operating costs and achieving sustainability goals.
Lubricants for Air Compressors
- DYNAVIS® technology – performance standard for high-quality compressor oils based on shear-stable VISCOPLEX® viscosity index improvers and selected pour point depressants. By enhancing the oil viscosity index, DYNAVIS® technology ensures optimal equipment efficiency and reduces energy losses, particularly in twin-screw and scroll compressors, where significant volumetric efficiency losses can take place. Given the relatively small oil quantities used in air compressors, switching to a higher-performance oil with DYNAVIS® technology quickly translates into measurable savings and a lower total cost of ownership.
Chain Oils and Biodegradable Lubricants
- VISCOPLEX® Viscosity Index Improvers & Pour Point Depressants – additives specifically designed for optimal performance of bio-based and biodegradable fluids in total loss applications, including chain saw oils, hydraulic fluids, outboard motor oils, and sawmill oils. They provide excellent shear stability, ensuring consistent viscosity across a wide temperature range. VISCOPLEX® pour point depressants improve the low-temperature flow properties of environmentally acceptable lubricants and stabilize fluidity under conditions of extended cold-temperature storage, addressing the particular cold-temperature challenges in these applications.
Transformer Oils
- VISCOPLEX® pour point depressants help biodegradable, ester-based transformer oils comply with low-temperature specifications and perform in low-temperature environments, preventing system failures and ensuring reliable operation over a very long time.
Turbine Oils
- VISCOPLEX® pour point depressants – additives for turbine oils that maintain oil flow and performance in low-temperature environments, preventing system failures and ensuring smooth startups.
