Kunlun Tianrun: Building the Preferred Passenger-Car Oil Brand with Real Strength

China's car ownership has continued to grow rapidly in recent years. While enjoying the convenience and fast pace of life this brings, consumers are also facing harsher driving conditions — worsening urban traffic congestion, frequent stop-and-go driving, and increasingly serious environmental pollution. All of this means that future engines will become ever more compact, precise and efficient, and the mechanical and thermal loads borne by engine friction pairs will increase; in other words, the demands placed on lubricants that fight engine wear will keep rising. In April this year, the newly upgraded Kunlun Tianrun launched by Kunlun Lubricants was tailor-made for China's road conditions and national conditions, with outstanding anti-wear performance and environmental characteristics that effectively address the machine wear caused by “consumption-type driving,” striving to become the preferred oil brand for consumers.

Super anti-wear protection for the car's “heart”
The Tianrun series products that Kunlun Lubricants upgraded and launched this time were developed for China's harsh driving conditions and different vehicle models, providing super anti-wear protection for engines and extending engine life. Kunlun Tianrun uses a Kunlun independently developed internal combustion engine oil complex additive, achieving a perfect combination of a detergency formulation and anti-wear technology; its high-temperature detergency and cam wear are better than API standards, and the products cover the main levels of API SJ to SN quality grades, providing powerful anti-wear protection from economical cars and high-end passenger vehicles to luxury cars, ensuring efficient operation on all kinds of complex roads.
In addition, in response to China's increasingly severe environmental pollution, the state has been tightening vehicle exhaust emission standards year by year. Kunlun Tianrun's unique environmentally friendly formulation reduces the sulfur and phosphorus content of the product, better protects and extends the service life of exhaust after-treatment devices, and effectively reduces fuel consumption, produces less hydrocarbon pollution and cuts exhaust emissions.
Solid backing: R&D gives high quality assurance to the products
The reason Kunlun Tianrun achieves such high quality and performance is inseparable from Kunlun Lubricants' strong scientific research strength. Relying on its two R&D centers in Dalian and Lanzhou, and through cooperation such as joint laboratories with Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Beijing Jiaotong University, Dalian Maritime University and other higher education institutions, Kunlun Lubricants continuously advances product R&D and renewal.
According to statistics, Kunlun Lubricants' technology has won national science and technology progress awards three times in a row, and these three awards are also the only highest national awards remaining in the field of lubricant R&D in China. In addition, Kunlun Lubricants' R&D centers possess domestic first-class, relatively complete simulation test equipment and nationally accredited laboratory analysis and testing qualifications; a well-equipped additive pilot base capable of conducting various pilot studies; and joint laboratories established with the Oil Research Institute of the General Logistics Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and with the Naval Logistics Technology and Equipment Research Institute, having established an evaluation system that meets global OEM specifications for hydraulic oils.

ROBO lubricant high-temperature oxidation equipment
At their current R&D level and conditions, Kunlun Lubricants' R&D centers also keep up with updates to international standard tests and strive to match international standardized testing levels. On March 6 this year, the advanced foreign-made Wazau TRM5000 variable-speed friction and wear testing machine was installed at Kunlun Lubricants' Dalian R&D Center. In light of the equipment's characteristics, researchers at the Dalian R&D Center will carry out a series of experimental designs; in particular, the vibration-bearing and variable-speed-controlled disc-on-disc friction method can effectively simulate the working mechanism and friction mode of automotive automatic transmissions, providing stronger technical support for evaluating the friction performance of automatic transmission fluids. On March 19, the ROBO lubricant high-temperature oxidation equipment developed by the Lanzhou R&D Center successfully passed TMC monitoring calibration in the United States, giving even firmer confirmation of the standardization of the settings used during testing and the reliability of the test result data.
Kunlun Lubricants persists in taking “dedication to raising the nation's lubrication level and adherence to independent innovation” as its corporate development policy, upholds the R&D innovation philosophy of integrating industry, academia and research, and continually provides consumers with high-quality, customized products and services. Through the R&D innovation of its products and heavy investment in marketing, it is building itself into the preferred brand for high-end passenger-car oil.
