NOVITAS CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS, LLC

Novitas Chem Solutions (Abbreviated as NCS) offers innovative specialty additives (abbreviated as SA) for industrial, metal working and grease applications. In this talk Novitas shall presents a series of novel and patent pending anti-wear and friction reducing (abbreviated as AWFR) additive for applications in synthetic base oils (abbreviated as SBO). An extensive bench testing study will be presented to show the remarkable wear reduction and friction reducing in the presence of SBOs including high viscosity PAO (PAO-40A and PAO-100A) and high viscosity AN (AN23) as well polar base oils such as esters and PAG . The combination of such performance (wear reduction and friction reducing) eliminates/minimize heat generated during the mixboundary lubrication regions and achieves dramatic increase of lubricant useful life during operation. Choices of SBO is vital to maximize the benefits of AWFR additives. The new AWFR chemistry is created as the result of Novitas’ R&D efforts and is odor free/user friendly.
