Base Oil SN 350 is a solvent neutral oil, part of the Group I base oils, which are derived from crude oil distillation followed by solvent refining and dewaxing processes. The “SN” stands for Solvent Neutral, and the “350” indicates its approximate kinematic viscosity at 40°C, which falls in the mid range viscosity category.
Why It Matters:
In the lubricants industry, the quality and type of base oil determine how well a lubricant performs under stress. SN350’s moderate viscosity, excellent thermal stability, and oxidation resistance make it suitable for both automotive and industrial applications.
Here’s what makes SN 350 a reliable and in demand choice for lubricant manufacturers worldwide:
Medium Viscosity Grade
Falls within the ideal range for blending motor oils, gear oils, and hydraulic fluids.
Ensures balanced film strength, flow, and shear resistance.
Excellent Oxidation Stability
BASE OIL SN350 resists chemical breakdown under heat and oxygen exposure.
Extends oil life and maintains performance in demanding environments.
Low Volatility
Minimizes evaporation at high temperatures.
Reduces oil consumption, especially in high-speed or high-heat systems.
Superior Solvency
Blends easily with additives, enhancing overall lubricant effectiveness.
Compatible with both mineral-based and synthetic oil additives.
High Thermal Stability
Withstands high operating temperatures without significant degradation.
Protects engines and machinery from sludge, deposits, and wear.
Good Color and Clarity
Clear and light in appearance, which improves formulation aesthetics and clarity in final products.
