When is a PAG not a PAG?
Since the R134a refrigerant first became widely used in the early 1990s, polyalkylene glycols (PAGs) have been the lubricants of choice for mobile air conditioning (MAC) compressor manufacturers. Unfortunately, a growing number of aftermarket suppliers are cutting corners to reduce costs, leading to a number of products labelled as PAGs that are not suitable for compressors. Here, Dr Liz Dixon, global technology director at speciality lubricants business Shrieve, explains why knowledge of PAG composition is more crucial now than ever.
