Is there an additive to make oil thicker?
Yes, there are oil additives specifically designed to make oil thicker or increase its viscosity. These additives are known as viscosity index improvers (VII) or viscosity modifiers. They are used to improve the oil’s viscosity-temperature relationship, making it more resistant to thinning at higher temperatures and preventing excessive thickening at lower temperatures. Read more

What type of additive is used to help lubricants adhere better to metal surfaces?
To make lubricants adhere better to metal surfaces, friction modifiers are often used. Friction modifiers are additives that reduce friction between moving parts and help lubricants adhere better to metal surfaces. They often contain molecules with polar or polarizable groups, which allow them to bond with metal surfaces to create a smoother, more protective surface.… Read more
