*FEATURED IN LUBE MAGAZINE* Minimising Wear and Friction of Diamond–Like Carbon Surfaces With Polymeric Organic Friction Modifiers

As featured in Lube Magazine. This webinar was given as a presentation at TAE 2016. It introduces the market drivers in the automotive industry, describes what diamond-like carbon and friction modifiers are, explores the methodology used to determine the Coefficient of Friction and Wear and analyses our results.

STLE 2016: The Effectiveness of Lubricant Additives in Preventing Soot Induced Wear

Soot generation in heavy duty engines, especially those fitted with exhaust gas recirculation systems is a well-recognised phenomena which leads to lubricant thickening and can lead to soot induced wear. In this webinar we show you how lubricant additives can prevent this.

Controlling Friction Challenge

Introducing Friction Modifiers and their uses in metal - metal and non-metal contacts. This webinar looks at synthetic base stock solutions, Croda chemistry and asks you, the formulator to challenge us with the task of helping you to control friction...

Formulating Strategies for Improved Fuel Economy

This webinar discusses strategies for formulators creating high performance engine oils to meet future fuel economy guidelines.

Fuels and Lubes 2016: Minimising Wear and Friction of New Engine Materials with Polymeric Organic Friction Modifiers

Presented at the Fuels and Lubricants conference in Singapore, 2016 this webinar describes what Diamond-Like Carbon is, how we measure friction and wear at Croda and analyses some performance data of our friction modifiers in steel and DLC surfaces for mixed sliding/rolling and sliding contacts.

Improving Fuel Economy Under New Environmental Regulations

Environmental regulations are driving an industry move towards the improvement of fuel economy, compelling new heavy duty (PC-11) and light duty (GF-6) engine oil specifications. This webinar provides solutions on how to achieve this.

Improving Seal Conditioning without Phthalates

This educational webinar was designed to give the formulator, guidelines to create high performance lubricants with environmentally friendly materials that allow seals to maintain their integrity.

Replacing Chlorinated Paraffins

Chlorinated Paraffin Replacements - Performance or Sustainability? The need to choose is over! The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is considering the elimination of mid- and long-chain chlorinated paraffin's in U.S commerce as early as May 2017 due to the negative effects they have on the environment. If this regulation goes into effect, formulators will need to adapt quickly to replace chlorinated paraffin's. In this webinar we provide strategies for formulating away from chlorinated paraffin's to make this an easy transition and present three non-toxic, chlorine-free alternatives for metalworking lubricants and coolants.

STLE 2016: Low Viscosity Esters for improved fuel economy

This webinar was given at STLE 2016. It focuses on the properties of our low viscosity esters, low viscosity engine oils; 0W-16 and 0W-8 and then looks at the friction and wear properties our esters show. To identify the esters spoken about in this presentation, please email lubricants@croda.com or contact us.
