NONAMEG® 9001 is a methyl ester based on high oleic sunflower oil. With its low viscosity and high oxidation stability, it is particularly suitable for the formulation of low-viscosity lubricants with demanding performance requirements.
The product is primarily plant-based, GMO-free and PO/PKO-free, with a renewable carbon content of 97%. NONAMEG® 9001 contains no mineral oil and therefore does not require hazard labelling with regard to aspiration toxicity.
Its combination of properties makes NONAMEG® 9001 suitable for various industrial applications, including grinding oils, polishing oils, demanding metalworking processes and cleaning formulations.

Methyl Ester for Low-Viscosity Lubricants
NONAMEG® 9001 is designed for the formulation of low-viscosity lubricants with high requirements for oxidation stability. Its methyl ester composition provides a basis for lubricant formulations in which low viscosity and oxidation stability are important product characteristics.
With a renewable carbon content of 97%, NONAMEG® 9001 can also be used as a component in formulations for renewable lubricants.
Grinding and Polishing Oils for Metalworking
Another important field of application for NONAMEG® 9001 is metalworking.
The product can be used in the formulation of grinding oils and polishing oils as well as for other demanding metalworking processes. Its low viscosity and oxidation stability make NONAMEG® 9001 particularly suitable for applications in which these properties are required.
Methyl Oleate as a Solvent Component in Cleaning Formulations
In addition to lubricant and metalworking applications, NONAMEG® 9001 can be used as a solvent component in cleaning formulations.
This provides an additional field of application for the methyl ester in industrial cleaning agents and formulations where a dissolving component is required.
