What is Techron?
Techron is Caltexs latest fuel ingredient formulation based on a family of compounds called polyether amines. These compounds function like highly effective detergents in removing and preventing deposits (dirt) in engine fuel systems. The people behind Caltex discovered the engine-cleaning power of these compounds in 1980 and has since been reformulating and improving the compounds. Unlike other types of deposit control additives which do not burn as completely and may contribute to engine deposits as they burn, the polyether amines are superior deposit control additives that burn more completely in engines, minimising any contribution to combustion chamber deposits. Techron makes Caltex fuels unbeatable at cleaning vital engine parts.
