Types, Examples and Working Mechanism of Rheo-Improvers Lubricating Oil Additives

Journal Title: Petroleum & Petrochemical Engineering Journal - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 5

Abstract

Lube oil additives play an important role to facilitate our daily life. And the most important one is Rheo-Improve lubricating oil additive, because it is performance enhancing additive it consists of two type viscosity index improvers and pour point depressants. This mini review highlights of Rheo-Improvers importance. Viscosity modifier (preparation of some examples, general properties, working mechanism and factors that limit their action). Pour point depressants (examples, general properties, working mechanism).
