Solvent Neutral 600N

Description

1. Product Overview
Solvent Neutral 600N is a severe hydrotreated, solvent-refined Group I base oil with a viscosity grade ideal for heavy-duty industrial lubricants. It is primarily used in hydraulic fluids, gear oils, metalworking fluids, and grease formulations where thermal stability and low volatility are critical. The key value proposition lies in its excellent solvency, low sulfur content, and consistent additization response, reducing formulation costs for blenders. Strategically, it remains a cost–performance benchmark in emerging industrial economies transitioning from conventional SN grades to higher-purity intermediates.

2. Key Specifications & Technical Characteristics

• Chemical composition: Severely hydrotreated solvent-refined paraffinic mineral oil, low aromatics (<3%)

• Purity/grade: >99% base oil, neutralization number <0.05 mg KOH/g

• Physical characteristics: Clear bright liquid; viscosity @40°C: 110–125 cSt; viscosity index: 95–105; density @15°C: 0.880–0.895 g/cm³; pour point: -9°C max; flash point (COC): 240°C min

• Packaging options: Bulk ISO tank (20-24 MT), flexitank (20 MT), new steel drums (180 kg)

• Shelf life: 36 months in sealed, dry, non-corrosive environment

3. Core Industrial Applications

• Primary industries: Industrial lubricants blending, automotive aftermarket oils (heavy-duty), metal forming, rubber process oils, wire drawing compounds

• Specific use cases: High-load gear oils (ISO VG 150–220), anti-wear hydraulic fluids (extended drain intervals), low-fogging slideway lubricants

• Performance advantage vs alternatives: Compared to standard SN600, Solvent Neutral 600N offers 25% lower sludge formation and improved demulsibility; versus Group II, it provides superior additive solubility and lower additive treat rates, reducing total blended cost by 8–12%

• Efficiency gain: Enables longer fluid life in continuous industrial operations (e.g., steel mills, press shops), lowering maintenance frequency and downtime

4. Competitive Advantages

• Quality consistency: ISO 9001:2025 certified, with batch-to-batch kinematic viscosity variance <±2%

• Supply reliability: Multi-refinery source network (Middle East, Southeast Asia) with 24/7 supply chain monitoring and safety stock buffer

• Logistics capability: 40 dedicated chemical tank containers; 15-day lead time to major ports (Rotterdam, Singapore, Houston, Jebel Ali)

• Price competitiveness: Direct refinery allocation removes 2–3 intermediary margins; fixed quarterly pricing options for contract buyers

• Sustainability: Reduced volatile organic compound (VOC) profile; supports blenders in meeting REACH, EPA, and China GB 11118.1-2025 compliance

• Technical support: Full CoA, MSDS, and additization compatibility matrix provided; formulation assistance via in-house tribologist

5. Commercial & Supply Information

• Minimum order quantity (MOQ): 20 MT (bulk/flexitank)

• Loading capacity per container: 20 MT per 20’ flexitank; 24 MT per ISO tank container (20’)
