LUCANT®, a hydrocarbon-based synthetic oil having no polar groups, is a co-oligomer of ethylene and -olefin. It possesses surpassing resistance to heat and cold and lower dependence of viscosity on temperature.
Characteristics - Non-volatile, colorless and transparent
- Excellent viscosity-temperature properties
- Low dependence of viscosity on temperature
- Excellent heat and oxidation stability
- Low pour point
- High flash and fire points
- Chemically stable, thus causing little or no metallic corrosion
Applications - Lubricant: Base oil and formulating ingredient for special lubricants, greases and functional fluids, which require resistance to heat and cold
- Rubber: Oil extender and processability improver in cases, which require resistance to heat, cold and volatility
- Resins: Softening and process agent
- Other: Pressure-sensitive adhesive, bonding agents, coating materials, ink, heat medium and special solutions
