PMA Viscosity Index Improver (Liquid) – CHEMPOL 5403

Product overview

CHEMPOL 5403 is a specially designed POLY METHACRYLATE Copolymer type Viscosity Index Improver for formulating the lubricants where very low shear stability & high viscosity index is desired. It is recommended mainly for low SSI hydraulic oil, automotive transmission oils, automotive multigrade premium gear oils, Utto wet brake oils and shock absorber oils. It meets the sonic shear stability requirements for shock absorber oils.

Where to use it:

• Low-SSI hydraulic oils.
• Automotive transmission oils and fluids.
• Premium multigrade automotive gear oils.
• UTTO wet-brake fluids.
• Shock absorber oils: it meets the sonic shear stability requirements.

What it adds:

• A VI boost of more than 30 at 5 wt% in oil (typical 35, ASTM D2270).
• Shear stability index 15–20 (typical 18, ASTM D6278).
• Excellent low-temperature flow from its PMA chemistry.
• Compatibility with a wide range of base oils and additive systems.

Key properties (typical): kinematic viscosity 1,400 mm²/s at 100 °C (spec 1,100–1,600, ASTM D445) · density 890 kg/m³ at 15 °C (spec 860–920, ASTM D4052) · flash point 190 °C (min 180, ASTM D92) · ash 0.1 wt% (ASTM D874).

Treat rate: depends on your base oil and target viscosity; send us both for a recommendation.

FEATURES:

• High viscosity index enhancement.

• Controlled, low shear stability for specific applications.

• Polymethacrylate based chemistry for optimized thermal and viscosity performance.

• Excellent low-temperature flow characteristics.

• Recommended for shock absorber oils, meets sonic shear test requirements.
