This innovation lowers the frequency of Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration
Lubrizol, a global leader in specialty chemicals, has announced the launch of its latest diesel additive, Lubrizol MF9145V, designed to optimize fuel combustion efficiency and significantly reduce the formation of diesel particulate matter (DPM) at the source.
This innovation lowers the frequency of Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration, which can help vehicle owners save on maintenance costs while enhancing driving smoothness and fuel economy. Extensive trials conducted by Lubrizol have validated these performance benefits in both laboratory and real-world conditions.
Diesel vehicle users in China commonly face challenges with frequent DPF regeneration, which not only consumes additional fuel and interrupts regular driving but also accelerates component aging due to prolonged high-temperature cleaning cycles.
“China's fuel quality, road conditions, and climate are incredibly diverse. Based on localized insights, Lubrizol MF9145V has been specially enhanced for sulfur tolerance and optimized for frequent start-stop, heavy-load climbing, and other typical driving scenarios to ensure clean combustion under complex conditions,” said Henry Liu, Vice President of Lubrizol Asia Pacific and Head of Lubrizol's Additives Division.
