| Features Chevron Unconventional Base Oils (UCBOs) are all hydroprocessed, highly refined paraffinic base oils of exceptional performance and purity. Relative to conventional hydroprocessed and solvent refined base oils, Chevron UCBOs offer: - Lower volatility and cold cranking simulator (CCS) viscosity to meet modern engine oil specifications such as ILSAC GF-3
- Extremely low aromatics, sulfur and nitrogen levels
- Exceptional resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation
- Very high viscosity indices
- Exceptional cranking and pumpability at low temperatures
- Improved viscosity and film strength at high temperatures
- Substantially reduced volatility
- Better lubricity which translates to better energy efficiency
Chevron UCBOs also offer all of the advantages of Chevron Neutral Oils, such as superior soot dispersancy in compounded motor oils and excellent response to pour point depressants.Applications Chevron UCBOs are compatible with a wide range of additives, and are excellent base oils for use in any application where high oxidation and thermal stability, exceptional low- or high-temperature performance, or low volatility is required. Chevron UCBOs can be blended with any of todays conventional base oils or polyalphaolefins to achieve desired characteristics, or used alone to achieve synthetic-level performance. In the Very High VI Group III category, Chevron UCBOs are available in two viscosity grades: - 4 cSt at 100°C
- 7 cSt at 100°C
These Group III Chevron UCBOs are excellent alternatives to synthetic base stocks for many applications.Specific products where they may provide enhanced performance benefits include: - Passenger Car Motor Oils
- Heavy Duty Motor Oils
- Small Engine Oils
- Automatic Transmission Fluids
- Gear Oils
- Hydraulic and Power Transmission Fluids
- Compressor Oils
- Metalworking Fluids
