Common Mistakes to Avoid When Using Viscosity Improvers in Formulations

Image
It has been seen that the viscosity index is used to regulate the flow rate of oils, lubricants, and other products that include viscosity improvers as an important component. These additives make certain that materials have similar properties at different temperatures to safeguard machines, engines, and even pharmaceuticals. However, the wrong application of viscosity improvers is somehow disadvantageous, affecting its performance or even entailing low-quality or highly expensive products. In today’s blog post, we will explore what viscosity improvers are, why they are important, and the mistakes their users commonly make in application to formulations. You can enhance formulation output, achieving great results regardless of such vices in mind and the knowledge of how to avoid them in the automotive, industrial, or even pharmaceutical industries. What Are Viscosity Improvers? Viscosity improvers, viscosity-modifying agents, viscosity index improvers, or simply viscosity modifiers, ...
