Lubvap CEO Explains Nanotechnology, The Molecular Technology That Has Arrived In The Lubricants Market

Nano Products Offer Better Performance to Machinery Compared to Chemical Additives

Nanotechnology is a way of controlling molecules at atomic and molecular scales. It is used for the development of materials and components with the aim of making structures more stable and performing better. Thus, it is possible for an element to gain unique properties, becoming stronger, thinner, more resistant, or more durable and can be used in various sectors of industry.

In the lubrication sector, it is no different. Noticing a market need that constantly seeks high performance in machinery, whether in agribusiness, food industry, automotive, or offshore, the lubrication sector has innovated by bringing lubricants that use nanotechnology in their products.

Lubrication is an important part of a complex mechanism to ensure the functioning of the production chain of various sectors and quality products that, in addition to increasing the lifespan of machinery, ensure uninterrupted production. “Lubricants need to deliver basic benefits for production, such as longer relubrication intervals, greater component lifespan, and increased productivity. Existing products in the market already deliver these qualities, but with nanotechnology, we can enhance these properties,” explains Luiz Maldonado, CEO of Lubvap Special Lubricants.

Lubricants produced with nanotechnology exhibit superior performance compared to conventional lubricants, providing advantages that only molecular control can offer, such as reduced friction of components, reaching areas that common products do not, or forming a more efficient barrier. “We also observed that nano additives do not experience rapid exhaustion like chemical additives do, which extends the product change interval in the machinery,” adds Maldonado.

In addition, the technology is capable of meeting a variety of specifications, such as Lubvap Super Blue, recommended for long lubrication periods, like bearings, or Lubvap Super Temp 2, which maintains its performance at high temperatures. “We also have Lubvap Super Load for heavy loads and Lubvap Super Electric for electric motors. There is a complete line that can be used across all sectors,” concludes the CEO.

Lubvap is a reference in the biodegradable lubricant market for various sectors, such as Offshore, Agribusiness, and many others. Its product portfolio offers various options that meet any need, such as Biodegradable Special Greases; Hydraulic Fluids; and for gears, Cutting Fluids; Corrosion Protections; Degreasers; and Biodegradable Hand Cleaners.
