Energy Usage Reduction

  • Excellent dielectric properties and effective liquid insulators  
  • Superior thermal conductivity and heat transfer capabilities
  • Low volatility and excellent thermal stability over a wide range of temperatures

Improved Reliability

  • High viscosity index (VI) of our PAOs provides maximum protection in both hot and cold operating conditions  
  • High material compatibility, not corrosive to copper, and non-staining to aluminum  
  • Outstanding oxidative stability, hydrolytic stability, and water shedding properties lead to long-lasting fluids

Other Key Performance Characteristics

  • Low viscosity PAOs can be used in biodegradable fluids. Our lowest viscosity products, PAO 2 and 2.5, are readily or inherently biodegradable.
  • Superior stability of the PAO molecules allows for increased longevity of the fluid and less waste generated
  • Increased safety thanks to low flammability, high flash and fire points  
  • All Synfluid® PAO products are NSF H1 and HX-1 registered and certified for incidental food contact
