- Application Information
- Functional PD-585 is a pour point depressant and cold flow improver for vegetable oil based lubricants.
- Functional PD-585 is effective in hydraulic fluids, chain saw oils, pneumatic-tool lubricants, and other lubricants made from canola oil, soybean oil, or other triglyceride oils. The high viscosity of Functional PD585 also makes this product useful as a shear stable viscosity modifier.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Treatment Level
- 0.5 to 1.0 wt% Functional PD-585 is usually sufficient to reduce the pour point of canola, soybean, or other low-saturate triglyceride oils and increase storage stability at low temperatures. Since the responsiveness of triglyceride oils to wax-crystal modifiers is extremely variable, the user must determine the treatment level.
- Functional PD-585 may be used as a highly shear stable biobased viscosity modifier for most synthetic esters, blown vegetable oils, low viscosity PAOs, and oil soluble PAG. See next page for treat rates.
Packaging & Availability
- Storage and handling Information
- Functional PD-585 can be warmed to 100°F - 130°F to facilitate pouring.
- Any suitable technique may be used for blending.
- Store in a cool, dry area preferably indoors
