Is the use of vegetable-based fluids as an alternative to mineral oils a one-way street?

This practice has often led to issues such as the formation of polymers inside the machinery, which, through accumulation, can irreversibly compromise its operation.

While vegetable oils often provide good lubricity performance, they frequently fall short in terms of temperature stability and oxidation resistance.

This issue has been solved by the DOCTORLUBRA™ Expert System, which selects vegetable bases with chemical properties that completely prevent the rapid degradation of the fluid and avoid the formation of harmful polymers for industrial machinery.

We have developed process fluids that outperform mineral oils, both in terms of mechanical processing and non-toxicity for the operator and the environment.
