OZ 08 is a high-performance pour point depressant formulated as a viscous solution of alkyl methacrylate polymer in neutral oils. It is specifically designed to improve the low-temperature flow characteristics of lubricating base oils by modifying wax crystal formation, thereby lowering the pour point and ensuring better pumpability in cold conditions. OZ 08 is fully compatible with commonly used additive components and suitable for use in Group I, Group II, and Group III base oils.
The additive is particularly effective under shear conditions, making it ideal for use in industrial lubricants, gear oils, and both mono-grade and multi-grade crankcase oils. Its use enhances lubricant performance in low-temperature environments, supports smooth cold starts, and ensures continued equipment protection under harsh operating conditions.
