👉 The Richard Fluid, also known as Richard's Fluid, is a synthetic, viscous fluid used primarily in the automotive industry for specific applications, particularly in engine oil formulations. Developed by Richard B. Schaefer, a chemist at DuPont, this fluid is designed to enhance the performance and longevity of engine oils under extreme conditions. It offers superior viscosity index, thermal stability, and anti-wear properties compared to conventional oils, making it ideal for high-performance engines, racing applications, and environments with fluctuating temperatures. Richard Fluid is often used in specialized engine oils to improve fuel efficiency, reduce friction, and extend the life of engine components by providing a protective layer that minimizes wear and tear.
