Antifoam Agents

Used to modify surface tension at the air-oil interface to prevent foam formation by causing bubbles to break up rapidly

Antioxidants

Oxidation of oil in the presence of heat and air causes it to become acidic and results in the formation of engine sludge and varnish. Antioxidants interfere with this chemical mechanism, vastly reducing the rate of oil deterioration and extending the life of the oil.

Antirust Additives

Used to prevent the formation of rust by developing a surface film to protect metal surfaces.

Antiwear Agents

Corrosion Inhibitors

Used to protect metal surfaces from chemical attack by water or other contaminants.

Detergents

Used to neutralize acidic blow-by gases, control rust, reduce lacquer and prevent deposits on engine components such as pistons. Infineum detergents are based on salicylate, sulfonate and phenate chemistries; each offers unique advantages in specific lubricant applications.

Dispersants

Used to suspend solid contaminants in oil; to inhibit and disperse sludge, soot and other insolubles; and to reduce the formation of engine varnish deposit.

Friction Modifiers

Used to reduce metal-to-metal friction between engine parts, increasing fuel economy and reducing energy consumption.
