Heat and oxygen are the most critical influences for the lifetime of oils. They lead the aging and decomposition. Lubricants are mostly working in applications with high temperatures in the presence of oxygene. Antioxidants are effective antiaging additives and prolong the durability of lubricants and drain intervalls.
AO additives are performing well in nearly all lubricants and fuels. Combinations of selected AO with synergistics effects are essential in the manufacture of hydraulic fluids, transmission, turbine, heating and engine oils, as well as greases.
