FUNCTIONAL V-160 is a viscosity index improver in concentrated liquid form. It can be used to prepare an economical additive for industrial oils or an aftermarket "oil treatment" additive. It may also be used as an inexpensive thickener for oil, to avoid blending with expensive oils like bright stocks. Customers should evaluate the product in their base oil for compatibility and in particular performance at low temperatures. To improve the low temperature properties of the oil a pour point depressant such as FUNCTIONAL PD-610 is recommended.
COMPOSITION:
The active ingredient in FUNCTIONAL V-160 is a copolymer of ethylene and propylene that has been used as a V.I. improver by major oil companies. The diluent in FUNCTIONAL V-160 is a paraffinic mineral oil.
HANDLING:
Storage at room temperature is recommended. Due to the viscosity of FUNCTIONAL V-160 at room
temperature, elevated temperature (up to approximately 90°C or 200°F) can facilitate handling. FUNCTIONAL V-160 is a non-hazardous material; see the current Safety Data Sheet.
