Oil, Fuel and Grease Additives
Our surfactants and additives find important uses in oils, fuels and greases. They can provide effective protection against the wear of thermal or electric engines or metal surfaces.
They also provide corrosion protection for injection circuits and storage. Thanks to their dispersing or lubricating properties, they can improve combustion or engine performance and thus ensure fuel or energy savings.
