..., and the viscosity was decreased by up to 98% at 50°C. This is due to the interaction and bond formation between synthesized PPD and wax molecules. As a result, less pumping power is required for efficient flow. The thixotropic area was reduced from 164 750 to 134 852 Pa·s after the addition of 800 ppm...
