В нашій останній статті про молібден – molybdenum (або MoS2), ми проговорили багато деталей. І тепер ми хотіли б розказати Вам про ще один популярний складник сучасних присадок.
PTFE, or Polytetrafluoroethylene, was created in 1938 and was patented under the convenient and probably well-known name - Teflon®.
In general, it is a solid compound with synthesized fluoropolymer. The compound repels water, has resistance to heat and high temperatures, and also maintains a very low coefficient of friction against hard materials. And these are just some of the advantages of Teflon (PTFE).
Manufacturers of additives very quickly realized that the compound can be used in cars as an active ingredient for oil. However, we are here to tell you all about it, so let's take a look with you, is Teflon really as perfect as it is thought to be?
WARNING! Teflon, as a compound, is not recommended to be added to engine oil.
For 1980’их, компанія. що розробила Teflon® провела тестування і оголосила, що Teflon® не повинен використовуватись, як активний компонент, в моторних оливах, або ж оливах які застосовуються у двигунах із внутрішнім згорянням.
Manufacturers and sellers refused to use Teflon for additives, and even those companies that continued to use them were sued.
So, we understand, it is forbidden to use the component in additives. BUT!
There are many other possibilities where the characteristics of this compound can be used. For example, we have developed and offer – Xenum Dry Gloss, прекрасний змащувальний спрей який можна використовувати в місцях менших навантажень, де не такою критичною є потреба в змащенні, але вона б позитивно вплинула на загальну роботу автомобіля. І не лише це!
The properties of PTFE can be used in many situations and on various surfaces. For example, on plastic, or on rubber-metal joints where additional lubrication is required. Its greatest advantage for us lies in its excellent properties that can be used in situations where other solutions will be either ineffective or too expensive.
The great advantage of this product is that it easily repels dirt, dust and mud, and at the same time does not lose its properties even during long-term use.
Повернімось до продукції. Наше рішення – Cerflon®
After the failure of PTFE, another development was patented 1998 році. Нею став – Cerflon®. In general, it is the same compound Polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), however, with ceramic nanoparticles (boron nitride). The advantage of this improvement was that the additive received higher viscosity, works better under various changes in operating temperature, and also absorbs energy better. In general, we received a compound of a completely different level and efficiency.

Despite the fact that the ceramic nanoparticles themselves significantly improve the properties of PTFE (Teflon), for our oils of the highest grade we suggest getting even more.
But we do not forget about the properties of Cerflon® as an excellent lubricant and use it in our products such as: Chain Pro, Super 5.1, XC Lube, Deblock Shock and X-Cut.
As you can see, we have found uses for the compound in matters such as lubrication of various surfaces such as chains, bearings, or even tools for repair or home work.

Більше того, наше універсальне мастило – XCF2 also has ceramic nanoparticles of Teflon (PTFE) among its components.
