Engine Oils
The crankcase is the most additive-intensive fluid in the market and the most tightly specified. Dispersant carries the soot, detergent carries the acid, ZDDP carries the wear, and the friction modifier carries the fuel-economy claim. The constraint that shapes every modern formulation is the sulphated ash, phosphorus and sulphur ceiling imposed by aftertreatment compatibility.
