Functional’s polymer additives can be used in aluminum, aluminum complex, lithium, lithium complex and calcium sulfonate base greases to improve water resistance and grease yields. These additives are composed of polymers selected for molecular weights that provide optimum benefits in greases. Liquid grease additives are preferred in continuous grease operations. FUNCTIONAL V-207 and FUNCTIONAL V-4040P are powdered polymers without diluent oil for formulating flexibility that enhance water spray-off and grease yield. FUNCTIONAL V-4004A is a multifunctional polymer diluted with oil and is designed to improve water resistance and mechanical stability. FUNCTIONAL V-4004A also increases the tackiness of the grease and stiffens the soap matrix, resulting in higher yields. FUNCTIONAL V-4270 is a mixture of multifunctional polymers specifically designed for use in greases to improve water resistance and mechanical stability. FUNCTIONAL V-4270 also increases the tackiness of the grease and stiffens the soap matrix, result- V-4060 ing in higher yields. FUNCTIONAL V-4060 is a pellet polymer that improves water spray-off and provides exceptional visual tackiness in grease.

FUNCTIONAL V-4004A and V-207 are added at temperatures below 100°C. FUNCTIONAL V-4270 may be added before saponification or with the cooling oil, but temperatures above 100°C (212°F) should be avoided.FUNC - TIONAL V-4040P is added during the initial reaction stage.

FUNCTIONAL PRODUCTS INCORPORATED 3 Additives for Grease Tackifiers FUNCTIONAL’S tackifiers are based on unique blends of polymers which may be used in a range of greases from aluminum complex to clay. Due to the high molecular weight of the polymer, the tackifier network interpenetrates the grease soap matrix. Tackifiers improve adhesive properties and enhance water spray-off performance. FUNCTIONAL V-176 confers tack or stringiness to a lubricant, and may be used to provide adherence. FUNCTIONAL V-191 is a white liquid for use in greases made with water or where water is a by-product of soap formation. As an emulsion, FUNCTIONAL V-191 has a lower viscosity compared to solutions of tackifier polymers in oil. FUNCTIONAL V-515 and V-572 are yellow-orange tackifiers for fatty oil-based greases. FUNCTIONAL V-572 is approxi- mately 90% readily biodegradable. FUNCTIONAL V-584 (NSF registration #120913, category HX-1, HX-2), may be used where incidental food contact may occur and is LuSC listed for EU Ecolabel Formulations and is suitable for use in Vessel General Permit (VGP) applications Additives for Food Grade Lubricants FUNCTIONAL PRODUCTS INC.
