From industrial operations to motorsport and passenger vehicles, fully synthetic oil is engineered to answer multiple applications. Equipment protected and operating at optimum performance, world class lubricant makers like Q8, Shell, Fuchs and Valvoline design and supply a wide range of fully synthetic solutions to keep equipment and vehicles running at maximum performance and protected.
Fully synthetic oil composition
Fully synthetic oil is an entirely man-made product. It has a synthetic base stock that is designed uniquely molecule-by-molecule with chemical compounds instead of petroleum products, and includes special additives designed to prevent degradation. Fully synthetic oils are designed to provide advanced performance, lubrication, wear resistance, corrosion protection and active service life compared to mineral oils and semi-synthetic oils.
Benefits of fully synthetic oil
Exposure to these conditions commonly occurs in engines. Oil degradation is a serious issue and can cause corrosion, sludge, viscosity changes, deposits and impair engine performance. However, fully synthetic oils are less susceptible to chemical degradation than mineral and blended oils.
Fully synthetic oils naturally have a higher viscosity index. As a result, they are more stable when temperatures change during normal operating conditions and engine starts. This allows them to provide enhanced wear resistance by maintaining their viscosity at a wider temperature range often exceeding maximum operating temperatures of engines.
Typically less volatile compared to other oils, fully synthetic solutions can reduce atmospheric pollution during use and consumption.
A key advantage of fully synthetic oil that contributes to its increasing use is the longer active service life it provides in comparison to conventional oil. While recommended oil change interval is usually between 5,000 and 7,000 miles, top brands of fully synthetic oils can provide much longer oil change intervals of between 15,000 and 25,000.
The use of fully synthetic oil is now becoming the new normal for industrial operations looking to compete and the automotive market, where most vehicles are made to run on a synthetic solution.
