AUS40 is a high-purity 40% aqueous urea solution specifically formulated for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems on marine vessels. It reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by up to 98%, enabling IMO Tier III compliance within Emission Control Areas (ECAs).
The EFFINOX green caveat refers to the strict IMO and manufacturer requirements for reduction agents used in advanced SCR systems. Standard urea solutions may contain trace impurities that degrade sensitive catalyst coatings. EFFINOX-compliant reagents meet tighter tolerances for alkalinity, biuret, metal ions, and insoluble matter.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a 32.5% high-purity urea solution conforming to ISO 22241. It is used in Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems. COA with every batch, including key parameters: urea content, alkalinity, biuret, insoluble matter, and aldehydes
Every batch of AUS40 and every DEF solution we deliver is certified to ISO 18611 or ISO 22241 standards. We provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment. For EFFINOX-compliant products, we supply additional verification of compatibility with specific SCR catalyst systems.

AUS40 freezes at 0°C and degrades above 30°C. DEF solutions have similar sensitivities. We maintain strict 5°C to 25°C temperature controls across all storage facilities and dedicated transport fleets – from warehouse to vessel manifold.
Here are answers to the most common questions about AUS40, EFFINOX, and DEF SOLUTIONS. Need more? Contact our technical team – we’re happy to help.
AUS40 contains 40% high-purity urea, while standard DEF (AdBlue) contains 32.5%. AUS40 is specifically formulated for marine Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems on ocean-going vessels, offering higher efficiency for larger engines. DEF (ISO 22241) is designed for road vehicles, auxiliary engines, and off-road machinery. Both are high-purity products, but they are not interchangeable. NAT Cargo supplies both – so you get the right product for your application, every time.
The EFFINOX green caveat refers to the strict IMO and engine manufacturer requirements for reduction agents used in advanced SCR systems. Standard urea solutions may contain trace impurities (such as biuret, aldehydes, or metal ions) that can degrade sensitive catalyst coatings over time. EFFINOX-certified reagents meet tighter purity tolerances, ensuring full compatibility with SCR catalysts from manufacturers like MAN, Wärtsilä, and WinGD. Choosing EFFINOX protects your catalyst investment and maintains Tier III compliance.
We provide every customer with a digital refractometer calibrated for either AUS40 (target 40%) or DEF Solutions (target 32.5%). Before you accept any delivery, you take a small sample from the transfer line, place 2-3 drops on the refractometer prism, and read the result within 3 seconds. The display will show a clear PASS or FAIL. You only accept the delivery if the reading is within specification. Every shipment also comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting batch test results.
