ExxonMobil Chemical is the world’s only manufacturer of both low and high
viscosity polyalphaolefins (PAO) which enables you to work with a single
source manufacturer to handle all of your worldwide distribution needs. With
commercial viscosity grades ranging from 2 cSt to 100 cSt and High Viscosity
Index (VI) products up to 1000 cSt, we provide our customers the flexibility
to formulate and meet the most extreme requirements.
Our SpectraSyn, SpectraSyn Plus and SpectraSyn Ultra PAO provide superior
lubrication for such applications as passenger car engine oils, drive line
lubricants, industrial machinery and heavy-duty truck engines. Used in
conjunction with our Esterex ester basestocks and and Synesstic alkylated
naphthalene blendstocks, PAO are the major component of worldwide synthetic
engine oils.
Synthetic lubricants formulated with SpectraSyn, SpectraSyn Plus and
SpectraSyn Ultra PAO provide the following benefits:
-
Extended drain intervals
-
Improved fuel economy
-
Enhanced wear protection
-
Wide ranges of temperature operation
Since PAO-based products significantly outperform mineral oil and enhanced
mineral oil (Group III) based products, we can provide you with a superior PAO
that will solve your specific lubricant needs.
High VI PAO
Through a proprietary patented technology of ExxonMobil, we've developed High
VI PAO (see recommended grades, SpectraSyn Ultra PAO) PAO typically used at
low treat rates to balance the viscometrics, shear stability and low
temperature properties of a lubricant. Its viscosity ranges between 150 to
1,000 cSt at 100° C, and it mixes completely with conventional PAO, esters and
mineral oils. Used in engine oils, automatic transmission fluids, gear oil
greases, hydraulic oils and other specialized applications, this High VI
product has the following features:
-
Improved wear protection in many lubricating regimes.
-
A viscosity index that is 35-40 units higher compared to conventional PAO of
the same viscosity grade.
-
A pour point that is 10-20° C lower than conventional PAO of the same
viscosity grade.
-
An increase of synergistic VI when blended with mineral and synthetic
basestocks
