Phasing Out Hazardous Chemicals in Lubricant Manufacturing

Thursday, 9 May 2024

European legislation on the phasing out of hazardous chemicals such as PFAS will impact lubricant formulation as alternatives will need to be found. In addition, there are questions around enforcing this legislation and the prevention of products from outside of the EU entering the market. This session will provide insights into meeting regulatory compliance, the latest modelling tools available to aid the formulation of PFAS free lubricants and alternative PFAS free lubricants.  

Discussion Points:

• Updates and best practices for regulatory chemical compliance 
• Using AI to predict and model for lubricant toxicity and performance 
• Investigating alternative components for lubricant formulation
