Functional V-584 is a liquid tackifier used in industrial oils and fluids, specifically for bar oils and chain oils. It offers drip resistance, high tack, and inhibits spray mist, while also providing thickening properties. This product is ideal for applications that require enhanced adhesion and performance in industrial lubricants.

Application Information
  • Functional V-584 is an additive that confers a tack or stringiness to lubricants made from bio-based fatty oils.
  • Functional V-584 is registered with NSF (category HX-1, HX-2) – an additive for lubricants used where incidental food contact may occur.
  • It is principally used to provide adherence in chain oils in environmentally sensitive or food-processing locations.
  • It will also inhibit stray mists and to provide drip resistance.

Technical Details & Test Data

Treatment Level

A treatment level as low as 1% will provide tackiness in a vegetable oil. About 5% will bring a vegetable oil to ISO 46 and 10% to ISO 68. The slight residual haze in these higher-viscosity blends does not affect performance. 0.2% to 1.0% of Functional PD-585 can inhibit the freezing of the base oil, extending the useful temperature range of the lubricant. Minimization of hydrocarbon aerosol escape from mist-lubricated and pneumatic equipment requires up to about 1%. Since there are no standardized test methods for tackiness or stray-mist inhibition, the treatment level is best determined by experimentation by the user. 

Storage & Handling

Shelf Life
6 months
Storage and handling Information
  • While warming Functional V-584 to about 50°C (120°F) may facilitate pumping and handling, extended storage of this or any other vegetable oil- derived product at elevated temperatures is not recommended. Safe handling precautions are the same as those to be taken with vegetable oils
  • Functional V-584 has a shelf life of 6 months and may separate slightly upon standing.  To maintain integrity of the product, mix well before use.  Avoid high temperature and mechanical shearing during handling and blending to minimize possible loss in tackiness
