Only a few weeks later the foundations were cast for erecting
the tanks. Afterwards construction works proceeded quickly.
In May 2010 the first eight of the new outdoor tanks with a
capacity of 70 m each were erected.
Then the tanks were insulated and the foundations of the tank
station for loading were prepared. The tank station possesses
integrated scales.

engine oil MG 40
MicroPower was
especially developed
for microBHKW L 4.12 made by
Kirsch Home Energy in close co-operation with VNG
(Verbundnetz Gas Aktiengesellschaft). The compact,
heat-controlled gas heating system for one- and twofamily houses achieves an overall efficiency of 95 %.
The mono-grade engine oil ADDINOL MG 40 MicroPower forms a stable lubricating film even at high
combustion temperatures and loads because of its
superior thermal-oxidative stability. In addition, it enables optimum performance by protecting the engine
against corrosion and wear over long periods and
ensuring excellent engine cleanliness. ADDINOL Gas
engine oil MG 40 MicroPower is applied in the plants
of Kirsch as first fill and service product. Currently
the first 150 plants filled with ADDINOL MG 40
MicroPower are being tested for their suitability for
daily use. Official sales start will be in March 2011.

long operating lives, increased pressures and sometimes also wear particles accelerate this process. In
order to slow it down the fluids contain anti-oxidants.
However, these additives degrade with longer
operating times, as do anti-wear-components.
In combination with heavy operating conditions
these speed up the oil ageing further. A decreased
performance and an increased viscosity have direct
effects on the efficiency of the pump. Pressure buildup necessary for the operation of the injection moulding machine is not effected as required. Oil viscosity
does not only influence the efficiency of the pump but
also energy consumption. Therefore, the hydraulic
fluids viscosity should be as stable as possible over
the whole operating period.
have to mix with the base oils easily. Their environmental compatibility is also of great importance and
for storage they should display good low-temperature
behaviour. Compared to paraffin oils and hydrocrack
oils, vegetable oils possess a lower ageing stability
and are more temperature sensitive which makes their
application more difficult.
Carefully selected compounds are added to the base
oils to impart characteristic properties. These additives ensure the separating effect, enhance adhesion
as well as wettability and protect moulds made of
metal against corrosion.

Editors: Mr Deckert, how did you come to join ADDINOL and which are your duties in the company?
During my studies of marine engineering at the Technical Department of the University in Rostock I did a
practical internship of three months at the engine test
benches in the former Minerallwerk Ltzkendorf in
1969. Back then I did realize that I wanted to work
at this extremely efficient research and development
centre of lubricant industry. On September 1st, 1970
I started to work at the department Test benches
which was part of Research & Development. Already
at that time new engine-specific and technical test
procedures were developed here for assessing
important usage properties of base oils, additives as
well as finished products. For the successful development and application of lubricants these practical test
benches and an efficient instrumental analytics are the
crucial basis. In 1985 I was appointed to run the main
department Lubricant testing. During this phase I
could contribute more than before to making the lubricant a real construction element. After the German
reunification the company experienced far reaching
changes having an effect on the scientific and technical work as well. In the ADDINOL Lube Oil GmbH I
was responsible for the development and application
of automotive lubricants for many years. Since 2009 I
have been head of the department Research & Development for the development of all lubricants.
Editors: What are the duties of the department Research & Development?
Generally our department has three basic functions:
first of all, the development and further development
of lubricants approved by OEM*, secondly the solution of practical problems and questions in close cooperation with application technology and sales, and
The department R & D (f.l.t.r.): Steffen Homberg, Mayka Nehrkorn, Doris Behrens, Hans-Jrgen Scholz, Jrgen Deckert
National and international specifications are the starting point for the development and advancement of
our lubricants. Take for example ACEA the association of European vehicle manufacturers draws up
requirements on engine oils with regard to engine
cleanliness, ageing behaviour, wear protection, reduction of fuel consumption and so on based on strict
testing methods. One could say these specifications
describe the requirements shared by the single OEM
and set the framework for the development process.
In the industrial sector DIN ISO and ASTM, the U.S.American equivalent of the German standard, are an
important basis. Of course these specifications are
subject to the ongoing development of technology
and they are added to or made stricter accordingly.
Based on these three pillars we draw up a conception of the development project and the respective
responsibilities. Depending on the particular requirements we discuss the possibilities with base oil and
additive industry. These technical discussions are the
basis for the first blendings composed in the laboratory. Their values are determined and analysed with
regard to the objectives, then tests under practical
conditions are carried out in the laboratory and on test
benches. If the results achieved are positive the product is tested in practice, often comprehensive field
tests in co-operation with the equipment manufacturers follow. Finally we have the product ready to be
introduced at the market.
Editors: So the OEM play a vital part for the development of products?
Absolutely. The close co-operation is highly important. Over the years we could build excellent relations
with various equipment manufacturers and established as competent lubricant provider. Our gas engine oils for the operation with special gases are a good
example to illustrate what I mean here we could realise a totally new oil quality in spite of the difficult gas
qualities in close collaboration and intense exchange

Editors: Is there something about the development of a product requiring particular attention?
The selection of the most efficient base oil is absolutely decisive. Whether a mineral, synthetic or semisynthetic product is used or even vegetable components depends on the specific application and its
conditions such as temperature, operating period or
loads. Of course particular characteristics such as
foaming tendency, wear protection or load-carrying
capacity are influenced by the help of additives significantly; however, without the right base oil of high
quality the best additives cannot achieve any effect.
The co-operation with research associations and universities is highly important for the development and
advancement of our products as well. In the FVA (one
research association dealing with drive technology),
for instance, we have the opportunity to discuss various topics with scientific institutions and operators
from practice which gives us important impulses for
our work. There are also close co-operations regarding the analyses of specific characteristics of our
lubricants with various universities as for example the
Technical Universities of Munich and Magdeburg or
the Technical Academy in Esslingen.
Editors: Which products stand out from the countless developments particularly?
Here I should name the gas engine oils MG 40-Extra
Plus and LA for the operation with natural gas and
special gases already mentioned. In addition, of
course all industrial lubricants having a friction-reducing effect and decreasing energy consumption such
as HV Eco Fluid or Eco Gear and Belt Lube. Last
but not least our Low SAPS engine oils, for example
Giga Light MV 0530 LL, for cleaner high-performance
diesel and gasoline engines and the reliable protection
of exhaust treatment systems.

When Max Lallinger founded his company in
1994 he was one step ahead as usual. From the
very beginning he relied on high-performance lubricants made in Leuna. And he was one of the
first who saw the chances of specially formulated
gas engine oils for biogas plants. Today his company possesses a respective circle of regular
customers. They all appreciate ADDINOLs gas
engine oils and their calculated oil change intervals based on oil analyses, the quick delivery and
the good customer service provided by Lallinger.
Seven people work at the company located in
Schechen, near Rosenheim in the Chiemgau.
While the firm owner takes care of the customers
himself he is supported by Richard Floegel in the
office. The warehouse in Schechen extends over
1,000 m2 there all ADDINOL products regularly
in demand are being stored. Deliveries in Bavaria
and around the border are carried out by three
company-owned trucks.
Many people know the Chiemgau as beautiful holiday destination. Usually holiday-makers have plenty
of time and thats why it moves at a different pace
for them. Still Bavaria is the strongest federal state of
Germany from an economical point of view and many
successful companies are located there. Therefore, Lallinger Schmierstoffe GmbH is partner of
numerous manufacturing companies. Among these
are Germanys market leader for parquet floors,
HARO Hamberger Flooring GmbH & Co. KG, and
paper mills of Mondi. In the sector of food industry
the dairy producers Meggle Wasserburg GmbH & Co.
KG head the customer list.
tant reason was the independence from large concerns involved in crude oil exploration which consider lubricants only as secondary to profitable fuels.
The clever businessman sells for instance compressor and turbine oils with great success. One major
service partner is the VESKOM GROUP which is
specialised in project design, assembly and putting
into operation as well as follow-up service and maintenance in the field of compressors and heating. In
