Base oils are the primary building blocks of lubricants. Their quality, performance, and properties directly affect the efficiency and durability of finished lubricants. According to the API (American Petroleum Institute) classification, base oils are divided into five main groups, each with its own characteristics and applications.
SN150 is a type of Group I virgin base oil, produced through solvent refining of paraffinic crude oil. It is obtained from solvent extraction and dewaxing processes, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Characteristics:
- Solvent-refined base oil
- Typically used in formulations requiring moderate viscosity
Applications:
- Gasoline and diesel engine oils
- Industrial lubricants
- Greases and special products
Advantages:
- Cost-effective and widely available
- Stability of properties during operation
- Low volatility
- Suitable viscosity index
SN150 is available in various packaging options such as bulk, barrel, flexi tank, iso tank, and IBC.
Recycled Base Oils:In addition to virgin base oils, premium-quality recycled base oils are available. Sourced from carefully collected used lubricants, these oils undergo advanced refining processes like hydrotreating and distillation to achieve high standards of purity and performance, comparable to virgin base oils. Recycled base oils offer competitive pricing and environmental sustainability, reducing procurement costs, conserving natural resources, and supporting a greener future without compromising performance.
