Live From The 25th Shanghai International Lubricants And Technology Exhibition: Ruqinba Unveils Next-Gen Surfactants And MWF Additives

Release Date: June 9, 2026
Location: Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC), Hall W1-W2
Booth Number: D22

On June 9, 2026, the highly anticipated 25th Shanghai International Lubricants and Technology Exhibition officially opened its doors. As a premier event for the global lubrication and surfactant industries, the exhibition gathered top-tier chemical enterprises and industry experts from around the world.

As a renowned Custom Synthesis & Application Solutions Provider, Ruqinba made a strong debut at Booth D22 (Hall W1-W2). We presented our comprehensive portfolio of Metalworking Fluid (MWF) additives, specialty surfactants for surface treatment, and core fine chemical intermediates.

On the opening day, the Ruqinba booth experienced overwhelming foot traffic. Leveraging our robust capability in Integrated R&D, Manufacturing, and Sales, we successfully attracted a large number of professional buyers and technical formulators from both domestic and international markets.

Opening Day: Engaging in Deep Technical Dialogues with Global Clients

Within hours of opening, Booth D22 was packed with visitors. A notable trend this year was that clients—including procurement managers and formulators from Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia—moved beyond simple raw material pricing discussions. Instead, they focused deeply on Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) optimization, adaptability to extreme machining conditions, and eco-friendly compliance alternatives.

At our booth, Ruqinba’s technical engineering team engaged in high-frequency, in-depth discussions with global clients regarding common industry pain points. Topics included emulsion instability in high hard-water environments, extreme pressure lubrication challenges in high-speed machining, and low-foam control during cleaning processes.

We brought not just products, but customized formulation solutions that directly target these pain points, earning high recognition from overseas experts and domestic peers alike.

Hardcore Innovations: Reshaping MWF Formulations with Synthetic Technology

During the exhibition, the core product matrix showcased by Ruqinba fully demonstrated our profound expertise in fine chemical synthesis:

• The Star Attraction: Alcohol Ether Carboxylates (AEC) Series
  As the focal point of our showcase, our AEC surfactants demonstrated their exceptional value in metalworking fluids and industrial cleaning. Utilizing the dual surface chemical properties of anionic and non-ionic structures, the AEC series showed astounding calcium soap dispersion ability and extreme hard water stability during our technical presentations. For formulators plagued by hard water soap precipitation and emulsion splitting, the AEC series is undoubtedly the "anchor" for building long-life, highly stable fluid systems.

• ⚙️ The Performance Booster: Advanced Lubricant Additives
  Addressing the challenges of high temperature, high pressure, and new material processing in modern CNC machines, Ruqinba presented a series of advanced lubricants specifically developed for fully synthetic and semi-synthetic systems (such as novel water-soluble polyether esters). These products break through the limitations of traditional EP agents. Without using restricted substances, they provide a tough boundary lubrication protective film for cutting tools, effectively improving machining efficiency and workpiece surface finish.

• Full-Stack Supply Capability: From C8-C18 Intermediates to Complete Additive Packages
  It is worth noting that Ruqinba proudly demonstrated its absolute strength as an original synthesis manufacturer to global clients. Beyond providing complete MWF additive packages—covering rust inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, biocides, and defoamers—we also highlighted critical chemical intermediates like C8-C18 Alkenyl Succinic Anhydrides (ASA). This means Ruqinba not only supplies finished additives but also possesses the deep R&D capability for directional modification and custom synthesis from underlying monomer molecular structures.

Synthesis Meets Application: Ruqinba’s Long-Term Commitment

"Machining, Cleaning, and Rust Prevention—these three stages are deeply interconnected in industrial production. Ruqinba’s positioning is very clear: We are not just a raw material supplier; we are the Raw Material & Application Experts dedicated to these three fields," stated the Head of Business at Ruqinba while speaking with a European client.

As global manufacturing accelerates its transition toward green and high-efficiency operations in 2026, Ruqinba will continue to rely on the platform advantages of its integrated R&D and manufacturing. We are committed to developing surface chemicals that are more environmentally friendly, safer for equipment, and more efficient for processing, helping global clients build a solid technological moat in a fiercely competitive market.

The Exhibition is Still Going Strong!
The 25th Shanghai International Lubricants and Technology Exhibition will run until June 11. We sincerely invite more industry peers and partners to visit us at Booth D22. Come face-to-face with Ruqinba’s technical team to jointly explore the innovative future of metalworking fluids and surface treatment technologies!
