Base Oil Group – II

N150

Description:
N150 is a light-viscosity Group II base oil produced through hydrocracking and severe hydrotreating of high-quality paraffinic crude. It offers outstanding oxidation stability, low sulfur content, and excellent low-temperature properties, making it a highly versatile base stock for a wide range of automotive and industrial lubricants. N150 is water-clear and chemically pure, allowing for excellent additive compatibility and long-lasting performance in demanding applications.

Production Process:

• Hydrocracking / Hydrotreating: Deeply saturates and purifies the oil, removing sulfur and aromatics

• Isodewaxing: Enhances low-temperature flow and pour point

• Hydrofinishing: Ensures high color stability, oxidative resistance, and visual clarity

Key Technical Properties (Typical Values):

• Viscosity @ 100°C: ~4.8–5.3 cSt

• Viscosity Index (VI): 110–120

• Flash Point (COC): >220°C

• Pour Point: -18°C to -21°C

• Color (ASTM D1500): L0.5 (water-clear)

• Sulfur Content: ≤ 0.03%

• Saturates: ≥ 90%

• Oxidation Stability: Excellent

• Volatility: Low – supports reduced oil consumption and emissions

Benefits:

• High thermal and oxidative stability for longer lubricant service life

• Superior low-temperature performance for improved cold starts

• Ultra-low sulfur for cleaner combustion and reduced deposits

• Water-clear appearance ensures purity and consistency in blending

• Excellent additive response across a wide range of applications

• Cost-effective solution for high-quality lubricant production

Applications:

• Passenger Car Motor Oils (PCMO): Ideal for SN/SP and ILSAC GF-6 formulations

• Industrial Lubricants: Hydraulic fluids, compressor oils, circulating oils

• Gear & Transmission Oils: Light gear oils and manual transmission fluids

• Metalworking Fluids: Clean, light-duty cutting oils and forming fluids

• Blending Stock: Used to optimize viscosity and improve stability in multigrade blends

Packaging Options:
