Summary of Benefits

Key Benefits
Lower friction co-efficient (Coefficient friction less than 0.01)
• Energy- efficient but strong wear protection / extreme pressure performance (Timken load over 90+ (greases))
• Corrosion prevention
• Application protection
• Removes varnish, sludge, etc / protects from deposit formation
• Self-renewing, long life lubrication solution
• Extended longevity of base lubricants / longer re-lubrication intervals
• Biodegradeable

Operational Benefits
• Superior lubrication performance
• Chemical bond with the metal; elimination of metal-to-metal contact
• Dramatic reduction of friction and wear - Increase of mechanical operating efficiency - Extension
of application design life
• Less energy and fuel consumption
• Increased longevity ( of the associated base lubricants because of dramatically reduced oxidation)
- longer service intervals
• Corrosion prevention
• Elimination of micro pitting
• Cooler operating temperatures

Environmental Benefits
• Biodegradable, contains no toxic additives
• A replacement for environmentally unfriendly extreme pressure additives (sulfur/zddp/chlorinated paraphins/moly /graphite)
• Increased longevity of the associated base lubricants because of dramatically reduced oxidation / less waste
• Reduction of fuel and energy consumption
• Lower exhaust emissions
• Solution for future gas/hybrid/fuel cells applications

Economical Benefits
• Reduction of the Total Cost of lubrication solutions
• Dramatic reduction of friction and wear; increase of mechanical operating efficiency and extension of design life
• Increased longevity of the associated base lubricants
• Longer re-lubrication intervals
• Cooler operating temperatures
• Reduction of fuel and energy consumption
• Self-renewing in the presence of oxygen and moisture – long life lubrication solution

PolitIcal Benefits
• A Bio- Additive - biodegradable- replacement for environmentally unfriendly lubricant additives
• Meets key EU standards and mandates (as known today)
• Energy saving lubrication concept / Long life lubrication
• An additive also to vegetable / feed stock oil based lubricant / diesel fuel solutions
