1909 PIONEERS IN PLASMA INDUCED ELECTROCHEMICAL PROCESSES.
In 1909 Leopold De Cavel, forefather of current VOLTRION founders started to commercialise and develop electric ionization processes for the lubricants & greases industry. During decades the Belgian (Ghent) company was globally acclaimed for its products ennobled by glow discharge, culminating in the 1930s till 1950s with most of the world’s aviation companies and aviation engine manufacturers recommending the use of these premium motor oils for lubrication.
