Polyol Ester Based Lubricants: Essential for Sustainable Refrigeration Systems Worldwide
世界制冷日, we celebrate the vital role that refrigeration systems play in our daily lives. From preserving food and medicine to maintaining comfortable indoor environments, 制冷已经彻底改变了我们的世界. 然而, 追求可持续的实践, it is crucial to recognize the significance of using high-quality polyol ester (POE) based lubricants in refrigeration systems. These lubricants not only enhance system performance and longevity but also contribute to environmental preservation. 在本文中, we will explore why POE lubricants are essential to sustainable refrigeration systems across the globe in pursuit of cooling without adding to global warming.
优化系统性能
Refrigeration systems consist of various moving components such as compressors, 冷凝器, 和蒸发器. These components operate under demanding conditions, including high pressures and temperatures. POE based lubricants are specifically designed to withstand such challenging environments, 减少运动部件之间的摩擦和磨损. 通过确保平稳高效的运行, these lubricants help optimize the performance of refrigeration systems, leading to energy savings and reduced greenhouse gas e任务s.
延长设备寿命
The longevity of refrigeration equipment is directly linked to the quality of lubricants used. High-quality lubricants provide superior pro侦探tion against corrosion, 氧化, 以及热降解. They also possess excellent viscosity stability, maintaining their lubricating properties over time. By minimizing wear and tear, lubricants help extend the lifespan of refrigeration systems. 这意味着减少了废物的产生, 更低的资源消耗, 以及更可持续的制冷方式.
能源效率和环境保护
Energy efficiency is a critical factor in sustainable refrigeration systems. 通过在润滑油中使用高质量POE, friction and mechanical losses within the system are minimized. 这就减少了能源消耗, 更低的运营成本, 减少二氧化碳排放. 另外, lubricants with optimal viscosity reduce the energy required to circulate the fluid throughout the system, 提高整体效率. 采用可持续的润滑方法, we can contribute to environmental preservation by reducing our carbon footprint.
在不加剧全球变暖的情况下降温
As the world transitions to more environmentally friendly refrigerants, it becomes essential to choose lubricants that are compatible with these new alternatives. Many traditional refrigerants have high global warming potential. Polyol ester based refrigeration lubricants are specially formulated for use with more environmentally friendly HFC, HFO and natural refrigerants and is the most common type of synthetic lubricant being used today. poe也可以由 环保 酸和多元醇, thus reducing the industry’s dependency on virgin fossil raw materials and lowering the product carbon footprint of the lubricant itself.
减少维护和停机时间
Refrigeration system downtime not only disrupts operations but also adds to the overall environmental impact. 通过使用高品质的润滑油, 提高设备可靠性, resulting in reduced maintenance requirements and decreased downtime. The use of lubricants specifically formulated for refrigeration systems minimizes the risk of component failures, 泄漏, 系统故障. This not only contributes to sustainability efforts but also leads to significant cost savings for businesses and individuals alike.
值此世界制冷日之际, it is essential to acknowledge the crucial role that high-quality POE based lubricants play in sustainable refrigeration systems worldwide. The shift toward environmentally friendly air conditioners is accelerating, and demand for refrigeration lubricants that are compatible with the refrigerants used in these air conditioners, 也在增长. Perstorp produces 90% of the acid and polyol building blocks used to formulate the ester for a refrigeration lubricant.
着眼于未来, we continue to strengthen our capacity to provide the essential sustainable building blocks that can produce low carbon footprint refrigerant lubricants and commit our R&D towards raw materials compatible with next-generation ozone and global warming neutral refrigerants.
