    For formulators of lubricants and metalworking fluids, INEOS Oligomers’ Durasyn® PAO fluids represent a highly engineered base-fluid platform. These fluids are fully hydrogenated oligomers derived from alpha-olefins and are available in both low-viscosity (2–10 mm²/s at 100 °C) and high-viscosity metallocene PAO (mPAO) grades.

    Key performance attributes:

    • Exceptional low-temperature fluidity, enabling full lubrication very early during equipment start-up and reducing wear during cold conditions.
    • Superior high-temperature film thickness, helping maintain protective lubricant films under heavy load and elevated temperatures.
    • High viscosity index (VI) and engineered molecular uniformity, enabling more stable viscosity across the operating temperature range and minimizing reliance on large amounts of viscosity-modifier polymers.
    • Excellent oxidative and thermal stability, which reduces deposit and varnish formation, extends fluid life, and lowers maintenance demands.
    • High shear stability, meaning the formulated fluids maintain their viscosity grade and protective performance even under aggressive mechanical distortion.
