Base oils are used to manufacture products including lubricating greases, motor oil and metal processing fluids. Base oil is typically defined as oil with a boiling point range between 550 and 1050 F, consisting of hydrocarbons with 18 to 40 carbon atoms. This oil can be either paraffinic or naphthenic in nature depending on the chemical structure of the molecules. Base oils are the building blocks used to manufacture motor oils and other lubricants like grease, lube oils. etc.

Download PDFFuel oil is used commonly for burning in furnaces, boilers, stoves and lanterns to generate heat. It comprises of long hydrocarbon chains, such as alkanes, aromatics and cycloalkanes. Fuel oil has many different names but the most commonly used terms are: Diesel fuel.
Download PDFGas Oil in general is any liquid fuel used in diesel engines, whose fuel ignition takes place, without spark, as a result of compression of the inlet air mixture and then injection of fuel. Diesel fuel is widely used in most types of transportation. Also used in Generators, Agriculture motors, etc.
Download PDFGrease is a semisolid lubricant. It generally consists of a soap emulsified with mineral or vegetable oil. The characteristic feature of greases is that they possess a high initial viscosity, which upon the application of shear, drops to give the effect of an oil-lubricated bearing of approximately the same viscosity as the base oil used in the grease. Grease is used as a friction removing lubricant in all motor engines.
Download PDFMixed Hydro carbon oil is a petroleum based product, having density of 0.79-0.82. It is a low density low viscosity product which is used as a raw material. It is a mixer of various Oils which contains lighter fraction and heavier oil. It is very useful for distillation and we can get various products from it.
Download PDFPetroleum Naptha is a general term that refers to flammable liquid hydrocarbon mixtures. It is produced from natural gas condensates, petroleum distillates, and the distillation of coal tar and peat. It is used in the production of industrial solvents, gasoline, thinners, oil painting medium, and as an ingredient in shoe polish.
Download PDFRubber process oil is an oil composition which has a kinematic viscosity at 100 °C from 25 to 50 CST and which contains less than 3%. Polynuclear aromatic compounds are employed as a process oil for rubber compounds, especially aromatic rubbers. Rubber process oil is used throughout a mix of rubber compounds.
