Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Synthetic lubricants are a combination of synthetic base oil plus thickeners and additives that will give the grease or oil lubricant a number of performance advantages over conventional mineral based lubricants.
Synthetic lubricants are artificially made or synthesized from compounds found in other source, such as petroleum oil, gas, or reactions of acids and alcohols.
Commonly, synthetic lubricants can be classified as full-synthetic lubricants and semi-synthetic lubricants according to base oil used. In this report, both of the two kinds will be analyzed and counted.
