Greenclean™ Detergent Technology benefits include protection
from traditional injector coking deposits that can lower fuel
economy and increase emissions. Greenclean™ Detergent Technology
also offers protection against a new type of deposit now being
observed in the marketplace, internal injector deposits, which can
rob your engine of power and, if left untreated, can result in
expensive downtime to replace fuel injectors.
Dave Cleaver, N.A. Fuels Marketing Manager, credited Afton’s
long experience in the industry for the development of Greenclean™
Detergent Technology. “Through our close relationships with OEMs,
oil companies, and injector manufacturers, we have a deep
understanding of the many challenges faced by the industry. Our
world leading Greenclean™ Detergent Technology offers solutions to
those challenges, including delivering optimal cleanliness at a low
treat rate. It’s particularly gratifying to be able to offer a
solution that has real value for so much of the industry,” he
said.
Julie Galante-Fox, Afton R&D Scientist, says, “The
solubility properties of today’s ultra low sulfur diesel, in
combination with high pressure direct injection diesel engine
technology, contribute to the formation of internal injector
deposits that can cause injectors to ‘stick’. Sticking injectors
result in power loss, rough operation and vehicle failure. We have
worked diligently on the internal injector deposit problem, from
understanding the root cause, to developing an engine test that
allows us to reproduce the deposit and deliver a solution that not
only keeps these deposits from forming, but also cleans up deposits
that have formed. Greenclean™ Detergent Technology has proven
performance in dealing with the internal deposit problem and is
also extremely effective in protecting against traditional coking
deposits.”
