2. Friction modifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction_modifier

   Organo-molybdenum compounds, were initially developed as antiwear additives but were later recognized to be very effective in reducing boundary friction. [3] They are currently used in many engine oils and, more recently, in gear oils. [1] They reduce friction by forming two-dimensional molybdenum disulphide layers on rubbing surfaces. [4]

3. Oil additive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_additive

   The choice of additives is determined by the use, e.g. the oil for a diesel engine with direct injection in a pickup truck (API Service CJ-4) has different additives than the oil used in a small gasoline-powered outboard motor on a boat (2-cycle engine oil).

4. Automatic transmission fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission_fluid

   Usually, it is coloured red or green to differentiate it from motor oil and other fluids in the vehicle. This fluid is designed to meet the unique demands of an automatic transmission. It is formulated to ensure smooth valve operation, minimize brake band friction, facilitate torque converter function, and provide effective gear lubrication.

5. Gear oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_oil

   GL-5 is not necessarily backward-compatible in synchro-mesh transmissions which are designed for a GL-4 oil: GL-5 has a lower coefficient of friction due to the higher concentration of EP additives over GL-4, and thus synchros can not engage as effectively, unless a specialized friction modifier has been included within the oil's additive ...

6. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   These are much more severe conditions than any API-specified oil was designed for: cars which typically push their oil temperature consistently above 100 °C (212 °F) are most turbocharged engines, along with most engines of European or Japanese origin, particularly small capacity, high power output.

7. Afton Chemical - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afton_Chemical

   Afton Chemical offers engine oil additives for passenger car, motorcycle, medium speed diesel and heavy-duty engines, as well as olefin copolymer viscosity index improvers. [3] Fuel Additives. Afton Chemical produces fuel additives for gasoline and diesel vehicle performance, octane levels, home heating oil, and fuel specification and ...
