ExxonMobil Chemical launched its new Synthetic Lubricant Base Stocks Formulations Guide in Chinese edition for the first time at this year’s China International Lubricant and Technology Exhibition (Inter Lubric), held in Guangzhou’s Poly World Trade Expo Center from the 24th to the 26th of September 2013.
“We are proud to say that ExxonMobil Chemical has been participating in the China International Lubricants and Technology Exhibition since 2004. China is an important market for us, and participating in key industry events like the Inter Lubric is a good opportunity to highlight our technology leadership. In order to meet our goal of helping customers develop new advanced synthetic lubricants, we are launching the first Chinese edition of our Synthetic Lubricant Base Stocks Formulations Guide at Inter Lubric this year,” says Brad Rinderknecht, Synthetics Global Marketing Manager, ExxonMobil Chemical. “This guide, together with our dedicated technical expertise in China, can help our customers in China and Asia Pacific to develop differentiated synthetic lubricants.”
In this formulation guide, ExxonMobil Chemical has included “The Outlook for Energy: A View to 2040”, which highlights ExxonMobil’s long-term views of the global energy future. The formulation guide also shows how to use synthetic lubricants to meet various application challenges. It is a handy resource to quickly identify the performance characteristics of ExxonMobil Chemical’s entire synthetic base stocks family— SpectraSyn™, SpectraSyn Plus™ advanced PAO and SpectraSyn Elite™ metallocene PAO, Synesstic™ alkylated naphthalene (AN), and Esterex™ esters. The electronic version of the formulations guide can be downloaded from this link (registration required).
To demonstrate commitment to the lubricant industry, ExxonMobil Chemical Synthetics is building a new mPAO plant in Baytown Texas and expanding its Baton Rouge Louisiana facilities to produce Group V synthetic base stocks. Global supply of SpectraSyn Elite mPAO, Esterex esters and Synesstic AN will ramp up at these two new plants in 2014.
