Application:
Based on their physical and chemical characteristics, POLYGLYKOL B 01/40 is used for a wide variety of applications.
Fields of industrial application:
- Base oil component for high performance lubricants with low friction coefficients, excellent wear properties, and good thermal stability.
- Lubricant for refrigeration compressors.
- Lubricating component of metalworking fluids.
- Component of auxiliaries for leather and textile processing.
- Component for defoamer formulations.
- Reactive alcohol component in chemical reactions.
- Solvent for dyes and inks.
- Dispersant for pigments.
To increase the stability against thermo oxidative degradation, Lubricant Additive 1655 can be used.
Properties

- Soluble In
- Product Properties
- POLYGLYKOL B 01/40 is a clear neutral, viscous liquid at room temperature. POLYGLYKOL B 01/40 is insoluble in water, but soluble in many polar organic solvents like acetone or methanol.
- POLYGLYKOL B 01/40 can be dispersed much better in pure hydrocarbon solvents than the more hydrophilic B 11-type polyglycols. POLYGLYKOL B 01/40 displays a very low solidification point of –45°C and no evaporation loss even at temperatures as high as 100°C.
- POLYGLYKOL B 01-types have a very low hygroscopy compared to other POLYGLYKOL -types.
