EHC™ Series
ExxonMobil basestocks , Guinea
Product Description
EHC base stocks by ExxonMobil are designed for performance capability in a broad range of finished lubricant applications. With base oil interchange and viscosity grade read-across capabilities, ExxonMobil's EHC base stock slate offers broad coverage, enabling supply chain flexibility and simplified qualification testing requirements. ExxonMobil follows rigorous processes to ensure reliable delivery of consistent quality base stocks so customers can be confident in their base stock supply. EHC base stocks by ExxonMobil comprise a global Group II slate as defined within API and ATIEL guidelines for formulation and qualification of automotive lubricants.
EHC base stocks by ExxonMobil may also be utilized in Industrial and Marine applications where formulations benefit from the increased oxidation stability and higher VI.
Features and Benefits
EHC base stocks deliver qualities that enable our customers to produce high performance blends. Key features include:
• Tightly controlled volatility and viscosity index (VI) specifications enabling formulations to meet or exceed API, ACEA and ILSAC requirements
• Targeted saturates levels to provide optimum additive solubility
• Exceptional oxidation stability
• Product specifications that enable formulators to meet or exceed passenger and heavy-duty engine oil quality requirements.
