Durad® 48 is a trialkyl phosphate anti-wear and extreme pressure additive for industrial oils. Neutral trialkyl phosphates significantly improve the anti-wear/extreme pressure properties of mineral and synthetic oils. However, unlike triaryl phosphates, they contain no phenolic species and may therefore be preferred for use in applications where there is concern about the potential release of the oil into the environment.
