How does XenTx® work?
XenTx® uses three vectors of active tribomechanical / mechanochemical activation:
- XenTx® utilizes the covalent bonding method to pick up loose particles of ferrous metals within the existing lubricant and directs them to broken molecular chains that exist on the surface of the friction environment
- Once on the surface of the metal, XenTx® is interstitially diffused into the actual metal structure at high temperatures and pressures creating a dense protective surface that is highly resistant to scuffing and galling.
- Because there are rough asperities on the surface of any/all metal surfaces, (that when magnified, look like narrow, sharp peaked mountains and valleys) XenTx® utilizes "vacancy method" of diffusion to fill in gaps and crevices making the surface much smoother and denser.

Explain again how XenTx® works?
XenTx® takes a very detrimental metallic friction environment by-product (loose ferrous metals - a large contributor to lubrication fluid contamination) out of the lubrication fluid and reconditions the metal surface. The more friction and heat produced, the more metal particles are worn or broken off of the metal surface. The more metal contaminant in the fluid, the more reconditioning of the surface is taking place.
XenTx® is a molecular level triboligical element that has an extremely high affinity toward pure iron (Fe). Once the bond between XenTx® and the metal is achieved, the resulting covalent bond is inert (does not react with anything else). XenTx® affects metals at the molecular level forming an electro-chemical bond with loose, pure ferrous iron and XenTx® molecules that form a metal hydride boundary layer in the metal that smoothes asperites and flaws.
The boundary layer formed by XenTx® has a lamellar molecular structure that ensures extremely low levels of boundary friction between the surfaces. When the temperature is altered up or down and/or the pressure is increased or decreased, XenTx® activates a succession of chemical reactions to bond loose metal ions to a friction surface forming a protective "molecular pile" boundary layers similiar to those that exist in liquid crystals. The resulting boundary layers have incredibly high molecular hardness thereby minimizing wear and scuffing to the metal surface, the higher the temperature and pressure, the harder the surface. This process is unique to XenTx®.

How much XenTx® do I use in my vehicle?
Unlike other products in this category, one bottle of XenTx® will provide multiple applications for your vehicle:
| Motor Oil Capacity |
Initial Treatment |
Subsequent Treatments |
| 4 Quarts |
10 ounces |
5 ounces |
| 5 Quarts |
12 ounces |
6 ounces |
| 6 Quarts |
14 ounces |
7 ounces |
| Other |
2.5 ounces per quart of oil |
1 ounce per quart of oil |
For example: Let's say that your vehicle has a 4 quart capacity of motor oil. On the first application, ten (10) ounces of XenTx® would be added. On subsequent applications, you would add five (5) ounces of XenTx®. Therefore, a bottle of XenTx® would be sufficient for the initial and second oil change. If the vehicle had already been dosed with XenTx®, the bottle would be good for three (3) treatments.

Will XenTx® work with my vehicle's aluminum block engine?
Yes. Although XenTx® has a great affinity for Iron (Fe), XenTx® still works great on aluminum block engines. The simple fact is that all aluminum block engines have pressed-in steel cylinder liners, steel piston rings, steel crankshafts, cams, etc.

Will the use of XenTx® void my warranty?
NO! XenTx® is 100% synthetic and does not treat the oil like petroleum based additives and therefore does not change the delicate Original Equipment Manufacturers' (OEMs') lubricant additive package. XenTx® is specifically formulated to target only metals and has an affinity and it's greatest affect upon ferrous metals (ie. iron, steel, etc.).
In addition to all of the above reasons, the Magnuson-Moss Act passed by Congress and enacted into law prohibits OEMs' from voiding warranties as a result of adding additives to the suggested lubricants. This is interpreted as a restriction of trade.

Does XenTx® wear out?
NO! XenTx® does not wear out chemically. However, due to the physics of any lubrication environment, an amount of XenTx® should be applied each time the lubrication is replaced.

Does XenTx® replace the existing lubrication?
NO! XenTx® was never intended to replace any type of existing lubrication. XenTx® used the existing lubrication to carry it into metal friction environments.
Back To Top
Does XenTx® add to lubrication volume?
NO! XenTx® uses time, heat, and pressure to diffuse into existing metal parts and should never cause a detrimental overfill environment.
Back To Top
Does the viscosity of XenTx® affect the lubricant?
NO! XenTx® is not a viscosity enhancer. XenTx® is not a petroleum-based product, does not add itself to the lubricant but uses the lubricant as a carrier to get the product to the metal and diffuse into the metal surfaces.

What is the flash point of XenTx®?
XenTx® as a pure synthetic metal conditioner is non-flammable.
Back To Top
Does XenTx® break down due to heat in a friction environment?
XenTx® as a pure synthetic metal conditioner does not breakdown due to heat and since XenTx® becomes part of the metal, the higher the temperatures the deeper the product is driven into the metal surface.
