Did you know that friction modifiers are key to improving fuel efficiency and reducing wear in engines? Friction within the engine’s moving parts can lead to significant energy loss, increased fuel consumption, and accelerated wear and tear on components. This not only impacts the performance and longevity of your engine but also results in higher operational costs and environmental emissions.
Friction modifiers are special additives that reduce the coefficient of friction between contacting surfaces, leading to smoother operation and less energy loss. By forming a thin, protective film on metal surfaces, these additives minimise direct metal-to-metal contact, thereby reducing friction, heat generation, and wear. This not only enhances the efficiency and performance of your engine but also contributes to better fuel economy and lower emissions.
At Valorem Chemicals, we provide advanced friction modifiers that are designed to optimise your lubricant’s performance. Our additives are suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive, industrial, and marine engines. By incorporating our high-quality friction modifiers, you can achieve superior lubrication, enhanced engine protection, and improved fuel efficiency. This translates to longer engine life, reduced maintenance costs, and a smaller environmental footprint.
