HOUSTON, Texas (March 29, 2007) – ExxonMobil Chemical has completed several
debottleneck projects at its Synthetics Plant in Beaumont, Texas, that
increase capacity to produce high viscosity SpectraSyn™ 40 cSt and SpectraSyn™
100 cSt polyalphaolefins (PAO) by 15 percent.
SpectraSyn™ high viscosity PAO products are attractive blend components for
increasing basestock viscosity and upgrading quality over a wide range of
lubricant applications. These synthetic blend stocks offer improved flow at
low temperatures and increased film thickness at high temperatures.
"This high viscosity PAO capacity investment will help our customers meet the
growing demand for high-performance lubricants," says Page Greenwood, PAO
Marketing Manager, Synthetics Global Business.
