LANXESS started trial operation of the phosphate ester flame-resistant hydraulic fluid production line at the Nantong production site

Recently, LANXESS announced that the company's phosphate ester flame-resistant hydraulic fluid production line at its Nantong production site was put into trial operation
.
This is LANXESS's first production line of this type in Asia, and the first batch of products has passed the Sino-British dual quality control certification
.

According to reports, in the past ten years, the market scale of China's hydraulic industry has continued to grow
.
With the new production line, LANXESS will be able to tailor phosphate ester flame-resistant hydraulic fluid products to meet the most stringent specifications and performance standards for Chinese customers, and serve customers
in other parts of the Asia-Pacific region and around the world.
The Reolube Turbofluid series produced by LANXESS Nantong is a phosphate-ester flame-resistant hydraulic fluid mainly for the power industry
.
It has good oxidation stability, air release and demulsibility, and is suitable for electro-hydraulic regulation and control systems of steam turbines, as well as various systems
using high-precision servo valves.
Compared to other fire-resistant hydraulic fluids, this product has a very high flash, ignition and spontaneous ignition point, and can be used as a fireproof lubricant in
steam and gas turbines in various power plants.

Liu Yuhang, Head of LANXESS' Lubricant Addition Business Unit Asia Pacific, said: "China is the largest regional market for our business in the Asia-Pacific region, and customers are very
vocal about local production.
The new production line will not only shorten our local response time and meet the increasing market demand in China, but will also further improve the stability
of the regional supply chain.
"The new production line is LANXESS's largest investment in Nantong after acquiring Chemtura, underlines LANXESS's confidence in building a sustainable base in Nantong, serving local customers, and will enhance LANXESS's regional supply capabilities
in China and the Asia-Pacific region," said Wang Jing, General Manager of LANXESS Nantong Production Site.

Reolube was a brand of Chemtura Corporation in the United States, and with the acquisition of Chemtura by LANXESS in 2017, the combination of lubricant additives such as Reolube was integrated into LANXESS's lubricant additives business unit
