VBASE® OIL Company: Secondary Polyol Ester® Technology – Versatility Across the Lubricants Market to Deliver Commercial Value — Presenter: Stephen Eck – COO

ABSTRACT: VBASE® Oil company has commercialized a novel family of Secondary Polyol Ester® (SPE®) base oils that are high performance, sustainable, API Group V synthetic base oils in the range ISOVG 32-460. SPE® base oils have been ‘Designed for Sustainability’ by linking building blocks that have high levels of biodegradability to create novel base oils that can help formulators meet the highest technical performance and environmental accreditation requirements. The presentation will highlight the unique properties and applications of SPE® base oils. This oxygen-rich family of base oils, with built in detergency, offers attributes such as unique thermophysical properties, excellent deposit control, hydrolytic stability, friction control and low heats of combustion making them a versatile tool for formulators of industrial, marine and automotive lubricants. We will expand upon these features and benefits and show how we see them translating into commercial value for the industry.

Performance Aspects of Novel and Sustainable Secondary Polyol Ester® Technology — Presenter: Dr. Martin Greaves, CTO

ABSTRACT: Synthetic esters are the most versatile of all common base oils used in our industry today. The inclusion of high levels of oxygen built into their molecular architecture has led to the creation of a novel family of Secondary Polyol Ester® base oils. These oxygen-rich products offer some unique functionalities that enhance modern lubricant formulations. Their thermo-physical properties, in-built detergency and their excellent environmental performance will be presented. Concepts for using them as base oils or performance additives in industrial, marine and metalworking fluid formulations will also be highlighted. Their unique chemistry offers innovative solutions to developing new generations of sustainable lubricants.
