PAO 10cSt
Description:
PAO 10 is a Group IV synthetic base oil, manufactured through the oligomerization and hydrogenation of linear alpha-olefins. With a kinematic viscosity of approximately 10 cSt at 100°C, PAO 10 is engineered for use in high-performance lubricant formulations where superior film strength, oxidation stability, and viscosity retention are required.
This base oil provides an excellent balance of low-temperature fluidity, high viscosity index, and thermal stability, making it suitable for demanding applications such as heavy-duty engine oils, gear oils, compressor lubricants, and industrial fluids. Its low volatility and shear stability further enhance lubricant life and performance under severe conditions.
Key Performance Features:
-
High viscosity index for consistent performance across wide temperature ranges
-
Outstanding oxidation and thermal stability for extended oil life
-
Excellent film strength at high operating temperatures
-
Low volatility – reduces oil consumption and emissions
-
Good low-temperature flow properties for cold-start performance
-
Excellent compatibility with a wide range of additives and base oil groups (I–V)
