<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lubricant base oil satisfying a viscosity region in which a fluid dynamic pressure bearing can sufficiently support loads of a rotor in a high temperature range, preventing increase of viscosity in a low temperature range, low in evaporation loss and stable in the high temperature range and the low temperature range.SOLUTION: A lubricant base oil contains monoester represented by the formula (1) consisting ofβ-alkyl branched aliphatic alcohol and aliphatic carboxylic acid. (I), where Ris a linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl group having 3 to 17 carbon atoms, Ris a linear alkyl group having 4 to 14 carbon atoms, Ris a linear alkyl group having 2 to 12 carbon atoms.</p> |
