Intech Energy Systems Pvt. Ltd has acquired an expertise in Manufacturing, Exporting, and Supplying a diverse range of Bio Based Lubricants . These Bio Based Lubricants are highly demanded by the clients for its eco-friendly approach and excellent performance. An emerging trend : Since 1994, developed world realized the disastrous effects of use and disposal of mineral-based lubricants on environment and attention was focused on development of biodegradable lubricants. Development of Bio Based Lubricants to cater to a wide range of needs is now on. Developed countries have started either making use of Bio Based Lubricants mandatory or preferential and are subsidizing the cost to users for changing over to biodegradable lube products. Lubricants : Current Types and Performances : Petroleum or mineral based and synthetic lubricants are prevailing in market. PETROLEUM OR MINERAL: based lubricants are cheaper, but do not provide all the required performance features. They get most of their lubricity from additives. Besides, they are not biodegradable. SYNTHETIC: Their performance excels than petroleum based lubricants, especially at higher temperatures and pressures. But synthetic are not necessarily biodegradable. Key features : Raw material is plant or animal based End product is biodegradable End product is non toxic Biobased lubricants : How they adhere to the metal surface? Excellent performance characteristics : Excellent Inherent Lubricity Better viscositypressure performance Superior thin film strength Excellent Viscosity Index Lower volatility High flash fire points Ultimately Bio-degradable Conventional vs biobased : An edge for biobased lubricants Base Oil Lubricity Oxidation stability Shear stability Viscosity index Bio Lubricant Excellent Excellent Excellent 165-210 Ester Excellent Fair Excellent 145-155 PAO Fair Excellent Excellent 120-135 Mineral Fair Good Varies 95 - 105, 125-135 Biodegradibility : Biobased Lubricants are Green Typical Biodegradability VALUESBase of lubricant% of biodegradationVegetable oil70 to 100Mineral oil15 to 35 Lubricity : Prime purpose served the best by biobased lubricants Superior performance to petroleum based lubricants Better wear protection in 4-Ball Weld* test Requires fewer additives Less volatilityHigher flash point Safer to use The Four-Ball Weld Test is used to measure load-carrying capability. A steel ball is loaded and rotated against 3 fixed steel balls. The contact surfaces are covered with test lubricant, a load is applied, and a timed test is performed. At the end of each run, additional weight is loaded onto the balls, and the test re-run. The weld point is the load at which the balls weld together. Ref: Ultra Lubes. Usage : Biobased lubricants are available for all applications. Preferred for bearings, material handling equipments including conveyors, cranes, forklifts, elevators, wire ropes, etc. where lubricity, extreme pressures, load characteristics, high temperatures are prime. Right choice for longest life of equipment : Superior lubricity resulting in multifold enhanced life and durability of equipment Energy saving of 15% or more Reduction in operating temperatures Decline in corrosion of metal surfaces Keeping contaminants out of system Mint : Pioneers in Bio energy & Bio lubricants : Yashprabha Group is involved in field of electronics, surface coating plants, material handling and auto storages, bio energy and manure under the brands of Minilec, Intech, Statfield, Yashprabha Agro, and MINT.
