Building on its expertise in alpha olefins, CPChem’s Polyalphaolefins business proudly leads the industry in producing high-quality synthetic base stocks. PAOs are used in a wide array of synthetic products such as lubricants, greases and industrial fluids, and have emerged as essential components in many industries and applications.

Recognized for their performance at extreme temperatures, Synfluid® PAO’s unique characteristics aid in longer service life and boost fuel efficiency, making them a more sustainable choice for your base stock needs. Synfluid® PAOs and mPAOs are produced from pure normal alpha olefins feedstocks resulting in consistent and high-quality products.

The Synfluid® PAO product line includes low viscosity PAO 2, PAO 4, PAO 6, PAO 8, PAO 10 based on 1-decene alpha olefins; and PAO 2.5, PAO 5, PAO 6 HVI, PAO 7, PAO 8 HVI and PAO 9 based on 1-dodecene alpha olefins. It also includes a unique set of unhydrogenated dimer products: C10 Dimer and C12 Dimer.  

The Synfluid® mPAO range includes metallocene-based high viscosity mPAO 65, mPAO 100 and mPAO 150 produced from 1-octene alpha olefins.

With the help of our Synfluid® PAO Blending Matrix Tool, you can easily calculate an array of properties from any PAO blend.

PAO Typical Properties

With a broad range of viscosity grades, Synfluid® PAOs unlock new possibilities for performance in extreme operating conditions.

 

Low-Viscosity Polyalphaolefins (PAO 2 – PAO 10)  

PAO advantages over mineral oils:  

  • Greater oxidative stability
  • Lower volatility
  • Excellent low-temperature viscosities
  • Consistent, quality base stock
  • Extremely high viscosity index
  • Exceptional pour points
  • Pure petrochemical feedstocks
  • Low coefficient of friction
  • Superior thermal conductivity and heat transfer capabilities 

High-Viscosity Metallocene-based Polyalphaolefins

mPAO advantages over conventional high viscosity PAOs:

  • Higher viscosity indexes
  • Lower pour points
  • Low temperature viscometrics  
  • Lower coefficients of friction
  • Excellent shear stability 

Synfluid® PAO Blending Matrix Tool – Streamline Product Development

Synfluid® PAOs offer key advantages for current and next generation oil needs, though tailoring them for specific applications can be time- and resource-intensive. Backed by extensive lab and field experience, our experts created this online tool to simplify application challenges and accelerate product development. With the Synfluid® PAO Blending Matrix Tool, you can easily calculate the precise PAO blend needed to target any desired viscosity.
