Molecule Lubricity Improver

Molecule Lubricity Improver

Overview:
Lubricity improvers are chemical additives designed to enhance the lubricating properties of diesel fuels. Modern diesel fuels, due to advanced refining processes that remove sulfur and other impurities, often have lower lubricity compared to traditional diesel fuels. This reduced lubricity can lead to increased wear on fuel pumps, injectors, and other components of the fuel delivery system, resulting in premature failures and higher maintenance costs. Lubricity improvers address this issue by reducing friction between the moving parts of the fuel system.

Molecule Lubricity Improver for Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD)

Product Description:
Molecule Lubricity Improver is specially formulated for ultra-low sulfur diesel fuels, including Euro-grade fuels with a sulfur content of up to 10 ppm. The product is a blend of fatty carboxylic acids in a hydrocarbon solvent, designed to enhance fuel lubricity effectively.

Technical Specifications:

• Performance:
  Adding 200 ppm of MOLECULE® anti-wear additive to ultra-low sulfur diesel from various refineries improves fuel lubricity by 40–50%, reducing the wear scar diameter to 370–330 microns.
• Testing and Standards:
  The lubricity performance of this additive is evaluated using the High-Frequency Reciprocating Rig (HFRR) and complies with ISO 12156 standards.

This additive ensures reliable protection for critical fuel system components and extends their operational lifespan while meeting modern fuel standards.
