Here’s one I thought some would find interesting. SDS on their products it seems their “secret” is using TMP. VOA doesn’t look at all remarkable in any way

What is with the acronym TMP? What's that stuff do referring to the TMP?

 

[Plawan]

This oil is supposed to be majorly PAO
I’m guessing you will be doing a UOA of this oil later?

Not much moly, tbn is kind of low.

Trimethololpropane, it’s a polyol Ester. @MolaKule has posted on it before.

Here’s a random TMP link I found…

Edit: here’s a neat data sheet, gives non-chemistry people like myself things to make googly eyes at: https://zslubes.com/documents-pdf/Z...S_TDS_Polyol_Ester_Lubricants_1-18-22 LEX.pdf

No I just did the VOA out of curiosity mostly.
