Article Abstract:
Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LP of Houston, TX, has developed a new polyalphaolefin process configuration for the purpose of enhancing oxidative stability. The company claims that compared with conventional techniques, the new configuration will result in as much as a 20% improvement in oxidative stability. In addition, it does not have any impact on other critical properties, such as low-temperature viscometrics and flash/fire points.
