VELVEX Rubber process oils are obtained from petroleum (crude oil), after the more volatile petrol and heating oil fractions have been separated through distillations. Process oil are mixtures of paraffin, naphthalene and other aromatic compounds of varies molecular weight distribution and used as processing aid in manufacturing of rubber products.
Rubber process oils functions as a plasticizer, improving the process ability and filter incorporation, or as extender. Based upon the finished product, we shall recommend the choice of oil from our extensive range of products.

Does not affect intended properties of final product
The Mechanism of processing aid working can be done either by lowering the molecular weight of polymer or by lowering of intermolecular interactions. Our oils works on later principle since the final properties are unaffected as molecular weight is kept constant.
Efficiency of physical process aids depends upon degree of miscibility with polymer or solubility in polymers. The higher the miscibility and solubility, it will be more effective in reducing viscosity and small amount of it will be required. In this way, our Oils exhibits tremendous solubility properties.
