Description

UCON OSP-320 Base Fluids from The Dow Chemical Company represent a significant advancement in polyalkylene glycol (PAG) lubricant technology. These unique products offer compatibility with mineral oils and synthetic hydrocarbon base oils as well as many other base oils while retaining key benefits of traditional PAG lubricant technology, including high viscosity index values, low pour points and excellent film forming benefits.

Compatible with Group I-IV hydrocarbon base oils, UCON OSP Base Fluids enable lubricant and grease manufacturers to create innovative new generations of PAG-based products providing world class lubrication, while maintaining compatibility with mineral oils and polyalphaolefins (PAO) base fluids. They also provide manufacturers with the flexibility to reformulate existing products, replacing expensive esters with a PAG-based alternative.

UCON OSP Base Fluids are oil-soluble base fluids that offer the historical advantages of PAG-based synthetic lubricant technology without past compatibility limitations with hydrocarbon oils. Available in nine viscosity grades, UCON OSP Base Fluids can be used as primary base oils, co-base oils and as additives in automotive and industrial lubricant formulations.

They can be blended with mineral oils to provide upgraded, semi-synthetic base oils offering improved deposit control, oxidation stability, viscosity index and low temperature stability. UCON OSP Base Fluids impart excellent friction control when used as additives in formulations containing mineral oils and PAOs.

Applications for UCON OSP Base Fluids include industrial air compressor fluids, industrial hydraulic fluids, fire-resistant hydraulic fluids, metalworking fluids, greases, turbine oils, gear lubricants, automotive friction modifiers, automotive deposit control additives, and co-base oils for automotive engine oils.
