Sanyo Chemical Industries has announced the development of Neoprover HBF-101, an innovative cold flow improver designed to enhance the low-temperature flowability of biodiesel fuels.

Biodiesel fuel is a renewable, carbon-neutral alternative to traditional diesel, produced from plant-based oils and used cooking oils. However, compared to fossil diesel, its tends to lose flowability on low-temperature conditions, leading to operational issues in cold climates without proper modification.

The newly developed Neoprover HBF-101significantly enhances the low-temperature performance of biodiesel fuels, helping to prevent engine malfunctions in cold climates. This innovation supports the expanded adoption of biodiesel across diverse regions, contributing to reduced CO₂ emissions and fostering sustainable energy adoption.
