Passenger-car engine oil additives are packages that enhance a lubricant's ability to prevent excessive wear and deposit buildup. Afton Chemical additives help improve the engine oil’s contribution to fuel economy, while increasing its resistance to oxidation and deterioration at high temperatures.
Afton Chemical is a leading North American supplier of additives for automotive engine oil applications. Our additives help motor oils meet North America's ILSAC GF-3, GF-4 and API SL requirements, as well as all historical category requirements.
With the recent upgrades in passenger car and heavy-duty engine oil specifications, blenders are faced with the challenge of changing the way motor oils are formulated. But thanks to Afton Chemical GF-4 Engine Oil Technology, these changes are actually providing new opportunities to optimize Dispersant Inhibitor/Viscosity Improver Index (DI/VII) systems.
And we cover a wide range of base oils from Group I to Group II as well as Group II+ and Synthetic to make the transition to the new GF-4 specification as smooth as possible.
