BASF @ UMTF 2025

Abstract: BASF’s Fuel and Lubricant Solutions is committed to developing products that meet the emerging needs of our customers. This session will highlight our industrial additive packages portfolio, which includes Hydraulic (IRGAPAC® H) , Turbine (IRGAPAC® T) and Gear (IRGAPAC® G) packages, with a special focus on our latest innovations. Designed to meet the highest-level OEM approvals, our new premium ashless hydraulic package delivers on performance. It offers superior wear and extreme pressure protection across FZG, Conestoga, and Bosch Rexroth pump tests. Formulated with our customer’s environmental, health, and safety objectives in mind, our new hydraulic package will not impart any hazard labels on the finished fluid at the recommended treat rate. This is one of our latest innovations covered in this presentation. As a leading global supplier of lubricant base stocks and additives, BASF is proud to offer additive package solutions to help you tackle the challenges of today and tomorrow.

Abstract: Demand for dielectric fluids in thermal management is rapidly growing, driven by the need for efficient heat dissipation, superior thermal conductivity, and effective electrical insulation properties in various immersion cooling applications. Growing emphasis on energy conservation and sustainability further fuels the market's growth trajectory. Low-viscosity, synthetic ester-based dielectric fluids emerge as a compelling choice, offering customizable options that cater to diverse application requirements. These fluids are characterized by high thermal stability, efficient heat transfer capabilities, and excellent dielectric strength. Synthetic esters have proven to provide exceptional lubricity properties, meeting the required specifications in e-driveline fluids. They exhibit remarkable safety features, with low toxicity and volatility. Further, synthetic ester-based fluids are environmentally friendly, biodegradable, and contribute to overall water and energy consumption reduction.
