Viscosity Index Improver (Liquid)

Availability : In-Stock


A Viscosity Index Improver (VII), also known as a viscosity modifier or thickening agent, is an additive used in lubricating oils and fluids to enhance their viscosity-temperature performance. Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, and it changes with temperature. A higher viscosity index indicates that the fluid's viscosity changes less with temperature variations.

In various applications, such as automotive engines and industrial machinery, lubricating oils need to maintain consistent viscosity across a range of operating temperatures. This is crucial for ensuring proper lubrication and protection of mechanical components.

A Viscosity Index Improver is typically a long-chain polymer that behaves differently at different temperatures. At low temperatures, it doesn't significantly affect the fluid's viscosity, allowing for easy cold-start flow. As the temperature increases, these polymers expand, causing the oil to thicken and maintain a more stable viscosity. This property helps prevent the oil from becoming too thin at high temperatures and too thick at low temperatures.

The use of Viscosity Index Improvers is important for maintaining efficient lubrication, reducing wear and tear, and improving overall performance in various applications. Different types of polymers and additives can be used as viscosity index improvers, and their selection depends on the specific requirements of the lubricating oil and the equipment it's used in.
