- Metal Deactivators are oil and fuel additives used to stabilize fluids by deactivating metal ions, mostly introduced by the action of naturally occurring acids in the fuel and acids generated in lubricants by oxidative processes with the metallic parts of the systems. Metal deactivators inhibit the catalytic effects of metal ions like copper, and aluminum; retarding the formation of gummy residues.
- Alternatives, such as antioxidants, function by hindering oxidation and metal contamination with significant cost implications. Hence, for reducing cost expenses, metal deactivators are used in small amounts with varied applications in the industrial and automobile sectors.
