What are Antiwear Additives?
Antiwear additives are those that act to prevent abrasion in a lubricant system. These additives work by forming a sacrificial film on a metal surface, preventing asperities on the metal surfaces from directly coming into contact when the lubricating oil can no longer provide the necessary film thickness. The Duraphos® line of antiwear additives are exceptionally surface active and compatible in a range of formulations and robust across a variety of lubricant regimes.
Duraphos® series: Your Sustainable Antiwear Additives for Lubricant Oils
Our Duraphos® antiwear additives were developed for lubricating oils. Keeping in mind the industry trends and the future of our planet, we designed these additives sulfur-free, ashless, and with a lower phosphorus content (lower SAPS) compared to current technologies. Because we know that performance expectations are high, Duraphos® products also come with additional properties: they can bear extreme pressure, some show secondary antioxidant properties
