High Performance Additives
High performance additives are traditionally used by grease formulators to add individual performance characteristics to their finished greases, maintaining maximum flexibility and uniqueness of formulations.
Anti-wear (AW) and Extreme Pressure (EP) Additives
AW characteristics and protection against EP regimes are important performance characteristics that need to be incorporated in greases for various applications. Afton offers many different options for the formulator seeking to strike the right balance between structural stability, surface activity, performance and cost.
Corrosion Inhibition (CI)
Corrosion inhibition is critical in many grease applications. From testing in salt spray to Emcor dynamic bearings to yellow metal protection, Afton has a wide range of options to allow maximum synergy while minimizing the impact on thickener structure and other important performance criteria.
High Temperature
Grease manufacturers need special additives to meet the unique demands of applications for which heat is a critical variable. Afton offers a range of chemistry designed to meet the stringent needs of your individual grease formulations. From increasing oxidation resistance to improving structural stability at high temperatures, these components can help you meet the distinctive challenges of grease formulating.
