Viscosity Improver

Viscosity is the most important physical characteristic of an oil. It plays the decisive role in the choice of accompanying lubricant as it describes its fluid characteristics. It is also dependent on temperature and can be influenced by special additives. Since it can change when an oil is being used.

NLPL viscosity improvers provides a cost effective alternative to 40 and 100 cSt PAO in many applications to increase viscosity blends in lubricating oil.
