Description
HiTEC® 11500 is a premium passenger car motor oil additive package developed by Afton Chemical for the formulation of modern low-viscosity gasoline engine oils. Designed to support advanced fuel-efficient lubricant formulations, HiTEC® 11500 enables the development of SAE 0W-20, 5W-20, and 5W-30 engine oils using high-quality Group III and Group IV base stocks.
Formulated to deliver balanced engine protection and performance, HiTEC® 11500 provides excellent wear protection, oxidation resistance, deposit control, and low-temperature performance. Its versatile formulation supports the production of high-performance passenger car engine oils that meet the demanding requirements of modern gasoline-powered vehicles while maintaining fuel economy benefits and engine cleanliness. Typical formulations utilizing HiTEC® 11500 achieve Total Base Number (TBN) values ranging from approximately 7.6 to 8.7 mg KOH/g, depending on the selected formulation.
