Every Maximum lubricant is built on a foundation of scientific research, precision experimentation, and deep tribological insight - the study of friction, wear, and lubrication. Our dedicated laboratory functions as a fully autonomous center, representing over $15 million in investment in the latest equipment, methodologies, and technologies.
The lab’s capabilities include:
• Quality assessment of all incoming base oils and additives
• Comprehensive testing of finished products
• Competitor benchmarking
• Development of new formulations aligned with global R&D trends
• Tribological testing to maximize durability and efficiency
• Nanoscopic particle-size measurement
• Full petrochemical profiling for lubricants and industrial fluids
All analyses are conducted in accordance with international standards (ASTM, ISO, DIN), ensuring repeatability, precision, and trustworthiness in every result.
Laboratory testing includes:
• FTIR spectroscopy
• TBN/TAN measurements
• Viscosity index testing
• Oxidation and thermal stability evaluation
• Pour, flash, and fire point testing
• Foam and air-release analysis
• Copper corrosion testing
• 4-ball wear assessments
• Particle contamination and cleanliness monitoring
• Noack volatility testing
• Engine deposit simulation
• Density, color, and purity analysis
This scientific foundation allows Maximum to not only meet rigorous quality standards but to innovate continuously, delivering lubricants that are efficient, durable, and cost-effective for modern engines and industrial systems.
