Friction Modifiers
With the growing focus on energy efficiency and global warming, automobile manufacturers and industrial machinery OEMs are increasingly recommending lower viscosity engine oils and lubricants. ABITEC's friction modifiers are increasingly used to help reduce friction in engine oils and lubricants.
Improving Energy Efficiency

- less viscous
- protects metal surfaces
- improved friction and wear reduction vs. competitive GMOs
Industrial & Automotive Applications
CAPLUBE® GMO-50
Minimize metal-to-metal contact, reduce friction, and control wear in automotive and industrial applications. Caplube friction modifiers (FMs) based on glycerol monooleate (GMO) offer unique characteristics which make them well-suited for lubricant applications. They have a high alpha-mono (1-mono) content and low acid value that can be beneficial for lubricant applications. Caplube GMO FMs synergize effectively with organo-metallic FMs, or they can be effective on their own in many lubricant formulations.
