ADDITIN® RC 8210
Product Description
Yellow metal inhibitor with EP properties based on DMTD
Additin® RC 8210 is a highly versatile lubricant additive designed to enhance the performance of various lubrication systems. In lubricating oils and greases, it functions effectively as a non-ferrous metal deactivator and an ashless extreme-pressure (EP) additive, while also serving as a sulfur scavenger. When used in polar base fluids like water or esters, a higher treat rate is required to achieve optimal yellow metal inhibition. Despite this, Additin® RC 8210 maintains excellent EP performance without negatively impacting wear properties. This makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of industrial applications, ensuring reliable and efficient operation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
Both additives are designed for use in industrial lubricants, metalworking fluids, and bio-based lubrication systems. They function as:
• Non-ferrous metal deactivators
• Ashless extreme-pressure (EP) additives
• Sulfur scavengers
• Light-colored and low odor
• Mild EP performance
• Excellent solubility in various base fluids
• Suitable for bio-lubricants
• Listed in LuSC (Lubricant Substance Classification for eco-label compliance)
It is especially effective in polar base fluids like water or esters, though higher treat rates may be needed.
• Strong protection against copper corrosion from aggressive sulfur compounds
• Mild EP properties and excellent solubility
• Also LuSC listed and suitable forenvironmentally friendly formulations
Yes. They can be used in combination with:
