Functional PD-620 is a wax-crystal modifier that enhances the cold flow properties of mineral oil-based lubricants at temperatures below their cloud points. It is effective under rapid cooling and extended cold storage conditions, making it suitable for hydraulic fluids, chain saw oils, pneumatic-tool lubricants, and lubricants formulated from solvent-extracted neutral and hydro-cracked base stocks.

Chemical Family: Polymethacrylates

Synonyms: Distillates (petroleum), solvent-refined heavy paraffinic

Application information

Recommended treat level is 0.10 - 0.50% but dosage of 0.125% is usually sufficient. Since the responsiveness of oil to wax-crystal modifiers is extremely variable and may be dependent on the cooling history, the user best determines the best treatment level.
