It's all about the molecules. A standard size molecule of oil is between 2-4 microns. To give you a visual, if a standard oil molecule is the size of a softball, our oil molecule would be the size of a BB. We restructured the oil so that it is one tenth of a micron (i.e. patented PPG molecules). We put a negative charge on these new patented nano-sized mono-molecular sized oil (i.e. patented PPG molecules). Due to a positive charge being created through friction in lubricated components (engines, gearboxes, transmissions, pumps, etc.) the Patented PPG oil molecules are magnetically drawn into the pores of the metal, this creating a unique and effective friction barrier between the moving parts.
Are the Petron Plus™ lubricant conditioners just another “snake-oil”? No. These are unique patented lubrication technologies. Consider the fact that lubricating oils themselves are not Patentable.
Unlike any other oil company in the world, Petron Plus has patented their oil supplements
(thanks to our ability to “re-structure” the oil molecules).
And this is but one of seven (1 of 7) U.S. patents we have created since 1978.
Many oil companies like to say, "You don't need extreme pressure agents in motor oil due to boundary lubrication preventing metal to metal contact". Anyone that has performed a oil analysis will confirm that there is indeed metal-to-metal contact occurring within the motor and that the engine is comprised of a variety of different metal types. The fact is ... metal wear can not be completely prevented, however it can be significantly reduced.
This picture below is a Iron ball bearing blown up to 1 Micron, this is a common metal surface in your engine. The Petron Plus™ Formula 7 molecules (as shown below on the right) are very small, 0.1 micron in size compared to solid additives (i.e. Teflon, PTFE, Moly, Graphite, Copper, Silver, Lead, etc.) that range from 2-10 microns in size. This allows the Petron Plus conditioners to penetrate every metal crevice in an engine, transmission or differential.
- If we could look at the metal surface in our engines or gearboxes, they would look like the Rocky Mountains, with hills and valleys as shown.
- The nano-sized Petron Plus™ Formula 7 molecules allows it to completely penetrate all metal surface abnormalities, leaving a very dense and equalized 'coating' on all metal surfaces.
- By completely filling each pore of the metal, and completely covering the entire metal surface within the mechanical componentry (engine, transmission, gearbox, etc.) it stops oxygen and water and other contaminants from reaching the metal surface thereby preventing corrosion and rust, while reducing friction and wear between opposing metal-to-metal contact points.

Petron Plus™ Formula 7 Lubricant Technologies!
Do you need a Grease with a ASTM four ball weld of 800 kg? We have it - and so can you!
Do you have extreme lubrication situations, that require Only the BEST solutions? We have you covered!
A highly respected independent research and testing laboratory in San Antonio, TX regularly conducts competitive performance tests on the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 products. These tests are the most stringent for lubricating products and can be directly correlated to lube performance differentiation. Consistent high performance evaluation results from 'The Lab' demonstrate that the Petron Plus™ Formula 7:
- 'Finished Lube Product Technologies' consistently exceed the lube performance capabilities of all competitors.
- 'Engine, Transmission and Gearbox Lube Enhancers and Conditioners', when added to your existing lubricant technology at 10% by volume, significantly enhance the lube performance characteristics beyond what they are capable of achieving by themselves ... especially conventional petroleum quality lubricants.
We sent oil samples from all the other oil companies to 'The Lab' in San Antonio to test. When the unique lube conditioners & enhancers from Petron Plus™ were added at 10% by volume to the worst performing oil in the group, the worst oil then tested better than the best synthetics on the market (AMSOIL, Mobil 1, etc.). If Petron Plus™ Lube Conditioners & Supplements perform that well when added to the worst performing oil, consider the performance advantage gains achieved when they're added to good performing oils!

Does Petron Plus™ technology have a performance track-record? For over thirty-three (33) years, Petron Plus™ Formula 7 products have been market leaders providing friction and wear protection to a global market base. Applications span virtually every industry on a world-wide scale. While Petron Plus™ Formula 7 technology is available in a full range of finished synthetic, semi-synthetic and petroleum (non-synthetic) lubricants … perhaps their most unique technology offerings are their lube conditioners and supplements … which are added to existing lubricants to address the friction and wear challenges associated with all mechanical applications (engines / transmissions / differentials / bearings / etc.).
What makes the Petron Plus™ lube conditioner & supplement technologies so unique? These lube conditioners and supplements are NOT an oil additive, nor a replacement petroleum product, but a 'patented' new package of high-tech petroleum and synthetic constituents chemically bonded together in a unique and patented process to form a totally new lubricant solution that performs at the nano-molecular oil level thereby performing like a new AW (anti-wear) or EP (extreme-pressure) ingredient (again ... they are no additives - but nano molecular oils). They are each individually formulated technologies for each type of application (engine oils, transmissions, gear boxes, compressors, refrigeration systems, metalworking, etc.) They are NOT a ‘one product does it all’ but are each a singularly unique technology that can be blended in small proportions (typically 10% by volume) into virtually any standard lubricant currently available.
The nano-molecular Petron Plus™ oil molecules are very small, 0.1 micron in size (a human hair is ~40-50 microns). If you could imagine for a moment, the solid additives we are all familiar with like; PTFE or Teflon® (a registered trademark of DuPont), Moly, Graphite, etc. are all 2-10 microns in size. This is a substantial difference in size, especially when considering the very tight/very small metal-to-metal clearances encountered in lubricant service applications. When considering the nano-molecular level oil technology delivered via the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 technologies - it would be like coating/treating the metal surface with "BB-sized molecules" versus the "beach ball-sized molecules" found in your existing lubricant (see Micrographs below).
Size Does Matter: The Micrographs below show material structures of Molybdenum Disulfide, Graphite, Teflon/PTFE, and

Do the Petron Plus™ lube conditioners provide wear protection? Petron Plus Formula 7. The solid products are 2 to 10 microns in size; while the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 “Nano Monomolecular” technology is 0.1 micron in size. Let's visually explore the friction-reducing capabilities of this unique and patented technology:
The bearing on the right was protected with major brand EP lubricant when tested in the friction wear demonstration unit. Note the size of the wear scar.
The bearing on the left showed minimal surface breakdown when it was subjected to three (3) times the load. In this demonstration the identical EP gear lubricant was used, with 10% by volume of Petron Plus™ Formula 7 Transmission & Gear Box Conditioner added to it. Note how significantly smaller the wear scar is.
At the load where the EP lubricant stopped the friction demonstration unit, the machine could be turned on-and-off with a full load on it with the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 added, and showed no increase in amperage. Then, with three (3) times the load, it showed only a slight increase in amperage.
How do the Petron Plus™ lube conditioners work? They operate much like a cold virus … meaning that once they are added to an existing lube on a 10% by volume basis, they can’t be stopped.
The 'negative charge' of the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 molecule is what gives it staying power. Metal becomes 'positively charged' when heated, so the negative charge of Petron Plus™ Formula 7 creates a magnetic bond that creates a high shear strength layer of lubricant that even advanced oils can’t match. After adding our lube supplement to your existing oil, tiny molecules (less than 1 micron in diameter) are carried directly to opposing friction faces where they are attracted to the surface via intermolecular forces that “pull” the molecules to the surface where they cluster to fill in any pores or roughness. The remaining areas are covered by a layer less than one molecule deep (hence the term ‘Nano Monomolecular'). The net result is a reduction in friction, wear and drag. When applied to the existing lubes operating in mechanical componentry (engines, transmission, differentials, etc.) the net result is either a HP gain or a MPG improvement.The intense shear strength of these microscopic nano oil layers provides outstanding smooth running and reduced friction characteristics, under the most demanding of conditions, that even the most advanced AW (anti-wear) and EP (extreme pressure) lubricants fail to deliver.
Petron Plus™ lubrication products are one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to improve performance and reduce mechanical failure … and it does NOT require you to try a different base lubricant (this technology can be added to any existing petroleum, semi-synthetic or synthetic lubricant). The Petron Plus™ formula is a synthetic-based .. modified hydro-carbon molecule ... that bonds to metal surfaces 'smoothing them out' and reducing the friction between opposing metal surfaces. Reduced friction delivers a host of benefits that will pump up your bottom line. Petron Plus has a 30+ year track-record of success and is used by leading companies. It’s proven to work.
- Helps to increase the lubricants operating life (i.e. longer lube service intervals)
- Helps to decrease downtime (i.e. and maximize equipment uptime and reliability)
- Helps to lower maintenance costs/expenses (i.e. by providing an increased margin of wear protection)
- Helps increase HP and performance (i.e. if you’re improving fuel economy the other option is to work the equipment harder thanks to the HP gain)
- Helps lower energy/fuel consumption (i.e. by delivering a minimum 5% fuel economy gain)
- Helps increase lubricant life with less contamination (i.e. safely extends the lube life cycle and/or change interval)
Do the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 lube conditioners/supplements support "Green Initiatives”? Yes. Petron Plus™ lube conditioners are biodegradable, low-toxicity, synthetic products that help reduce environmental impact by lasting longer in service, and by enhancing oil film strength so an effective seal is maintained in the critical piston ring area – which minimizes exhaust blow-by. This helps to conserve natural resources. Longer drain intervals, means less waste oil, and requires less disposal. They also help reduce fuel consumption in personal vehicles and fleet operations.
The Petron Plus™ supplements exhibit Nano Monomolecular technology properties and do NOT contain any common and/or regulated solvents (Carbon Tetrachloride /1,1,1-Trichloroethane / Chlorinated Solvents / Other harmful solvents). Petron Plus™ does not break down under pressure and release toxins or combustible fumes. They are classified as non-hazardous under EPA and COSHH regulations. Petron Plus™ products are designed for maximum safety to human health and the environment and require no special handling, storage, or disposal other than those procedures normally used in disposition of standard petroleum products.
Are the Petron Plus™ lubricant conditioners just another “snake-oil”? No. These are unique patented lubrication technologies. Consider the fact that lubricating oils themselves are not patentable.
Unlike any other oil company in the world, Petron Plus has patented their oil supplements
(thanks to our ability to “re-structure” the oil molecules).
In other words, while other oil companies patent the additive technology they use in their unique product formulations … Petron Plus™ has patented a Group 4 re-structured synthetic … a nano-molecular "oil molecule" ... that makes this technology singularly unique in the marketplace, with an ability to provide superior friction-reducing characteristics … yet not be classified as an “additive” (it’s an oil). Further, the Petron Plus™ Conditioners/Supplements are all “biodegradable oils”.
Further, to dispel any potential fear that this new technology is just another ‘snake oil’, recognize that the Petron Plus™ Formula 7 Nano Monomolecular technology contains no common EP agents: TEFLON® or PTFE resins (like Slick-50, T-Plus, etc.) / Graphite / Molybdenum Disulphide (moly) / Chlorinated Paraffin (like Prolong, Dura-Lube, Energy Release, etc.) / Copper, Lead, Silver, or other metals / Other common or previously used AW and/or EP agents.
What makes the Petron Plus™ Diesel Engine and the Transmission & Gearbox supplements unique versus other lubricant additives in the marketplace? The lubricant conditioners/supplements are an alternative to previously known AW or EP agents which tend to be harmful to equipment, base lubricants, or human and animal life in the long run. What makes Petron Plus such an effective friction reducer? It's the molecules that make the difference. Their small size and magnetic charge enable them to bond to metal surfaces and stay there even under conditions of extreme pressure and temperature. Petron Plus™ re-engineered the structure of hydrocarbons to a very small size of 0.1 micron. This makes it much smaller than the average oil molecule of 3-4 microns, and is why Petron Plus™ is so effective at filling the cracks and crevices in the metal componentry of engines, transmissions and differentials. The negative charge of the Petron Plus™ molecule is what gives it staying power. Metal becomes positively charged when heated, so the negative charge of Petron Plus™ creates a magnetic bond that creates a high shear strength layer of lubricant that even advanced oils can't match.
When Petron Plus™ s added to any vehicle or heavy duty equipment's existing lubricant package, (petroleum or synthetic), Petron Plus™ significantly strengthens the base-lubricant's overall protective qualities and enhances its existing additive base by providing maximum rust inhibition, anti-oxidation, and the newest, most powerful friction reducing anti-wear agent available.
Petron Plus™ protects by impregnating metal at contact and wear points to tremendously reduce the friction and wear at those points. The products perform well at any temperature, but work best at higher temperatures generated by machinery operation or friction, when under continuous heavy-duty loads, or when the equipment is subjected to shock-loading (start-up or poor road conditions). The penetrating formula does not easily burn, wash, or wear away.
