Perfad™

Perfad™ organic friction modifiers are used to reduce friction and improve film forming in lubricant formulations.

Whether it be to reduce friction within engine oils in the automotive sector, or to offer lubricity improvements in neat metalworking formulations, Perfad™ additives deliver exception in-use benefits to your formulations.

The range comprises a variety of  chemistries and technologies which, combined with our technical and application expertise, means we are best placed to help you meet and exceed your performance targets - whatever the application.

Use of Perfad™ additives

Automotive

Controlling friction in automotive engine oils is the key to controlling fuel efficiency, reducing emissions, reducing wear and extending the durability of equipment. Our Perfad™ range of polymeric organic friction modifiers (PFMs) can enable this to happen. The Perfad™ line of performance friction modifier display an outstanding ability to reduce the coefficient of friction of engine oils to levels unachievable with conventional friction modifiers, thus enabling formulators to develop engine oils that improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. Perfad™ 3000 and Perfad™ 3057 performance friction modifiers also demonstrate excellent film forming properties which offers the potential to reduce engine wear and to improve engine durability.
