D.SYNOL is a lubricant viscosity modifier independently developed by DL Chemical in 2017, used as an additive in automotive and various industrial gear lubricants. It is made by copolymerizing ethylene and propylene and is also called EPO (Ethylene Propylene Oligomer). DL Chemical is the world’s first company to develop a metallocene catalyst-based liquid EPO.


D.SYNOL products not only excel in viscosity retention performance and shear stability, which are the standards for lubricant viscosity modifiers, but also provide stable performance under harsh conditions such as heat and oxidation, resulting in outstanding fuel efficiency improvement and cost reduction through extended replacement intervals. Additionally, as non-toxic and eco-friendly products, they have been certified for environmental friendliness and safety by global organizations.


D.SYNOL Plus is a newly developed product aimed at entering the engine oil market and can be used not only for passenger cars but also for engine oils for large trucks, buses, and construction equipment.



A DL Chemical official stated, "We participated in this exhibition to widely promote the excellence of D.SYNOL products and DL Chemical’s technological capabilities and to discover new customers," adding, "We will continue to expand sales of high-value products."
