Driven by innovation, we provide our customers with solutions that enable the formulation of high-performance lubricants.
ORLEN’s Amber Base 100N and 200N deliver high, consistent quality to lubricant producers globally.
Due to its physical properties, Amber Base 100N in combination with 220N can be widely used in blend formulations, with particular emphasis on motor oils for the automotive segment, which provides the additional benefit of reducing the use of Group III products. This solution increases formulation flexibility.
By using Amber Base 100N in a mixture with 220N, lubricant producers can ensure compliance with the demanding ACEA and API quality standards.
Application and adventages of Amber Base 100N / 220N
Amber Base 100N, used together with 220N, is dedicated to advanced formulations in automotive (PCMO, HDDO), driveline and industrial segments, while limiting the usage of Group III and delivering cost optimisation to lubricant producers.
Compliance of finished product formulations with most of the ACEA and API requirements.
Due to its physical properties like low-temperature performance, low volatility and high saturates, it enables our customers to develop solutions that address market needs for technically advanced products, ensuring cost competitiveness.
