Chemtura Industrial Lubricants Launches New ANDEROL Compressor Lubricant at PTC Asia 2007



Specific service life of custom-made lubricant helps minimize downtime, maximize ROI

Guangzhou, China (October 10, 2007) - Chemtura Industrial Lubricants is introducing a new ANDEROL-branded compressor lubricant, specifically designed for the Asian market, called AOSyn® GTP 46. It will debut at PTC Asia 2007, October 10-13 in Shanghai, China. The cost-effective, high performance product was developed to meet growing demand across Asia for compressor oils with a specific service life. AOSyn® GTP 46 is the newest innovation in the ANDEROL portfolio, which came under the Chemtura umbrella in early 2007. Visitors to the Anderol booth at PTC Asia, Hall E3, G1-4 will be the first to learn about the performance advantages of AOSyn GTP 46 and its effective characteristics in industrial applications.

ANDEROL experts initiated the research and development of AOSyn GTP 46 when it identified a strong need amongst Asian compressor users: They required a robust lubricant with a mid-range service life of 4,000 to 6,000 hours, under the normal operation condition of 85°C discharge temperature and 0.8 MPa pressure. AOSyn GTP 46 was engineered to meet this specific service life requirement, which complements that of other screw compressor consumables. The new Chemtura lubricant offers Asian manufacturers the flexibility and convenience of changing all of their equipment's serviceable parts simultaneously.

"AOSyn GTP 46 is a custom-made lubricant that satisfies the demands of domestic and regional customers who are now able to exceed their targeted operational goals and maximize cost savings by reducing machine downtime," said Jacky Fang, technical service manager for Chemtura Industrial Lubricants, a global manufacturer and marketer of specialty chemicals. "This allows them to meet their foremost goal of maximizing overall equipment investment."

Formulated with a specialized high-performance additive package that utilizes Chemtura's Hatcol-brand polyolester basestock as the carrier fluid, AOSyn GTP 46 lowers equipment maintenance costs by offering excellent thermal and oxidation stability - a key factor in minimizing deposit formations. Besides displaying a long service life under normal operating conditions of 4,000 to 6,000 hours, the lubricant's high viscosity index and low volatility makes it stable over a wide temperature range. It also possesses excellent demulsifying abilities and is compatible with conventional mineral-based compressor oils. These characteristics make it suitable for use in a wide range of critical applications.

"We are deeply committed to optimizing our customers' equipment performance and delivering the most cost-effective solution for their applications," said Francis Hou, general manager - Asia Pacific, Chemtura Industrial Lubricants. "A high-quality product like AOSyn GTP 46 allows OEMs and end users to achieve significant yields from their compressor equipment, which helps reduce operational downtime and maximize efficiency at a reasonable cost."

Along with AOSyn GTP 46, the company will also be showcasing its best-selling 'S' series and other synthetic compressor oils at PTC Asia.
