IMPROVED SYNTHETIC HYDROCARBON LUBRICANT BASE STOCK

摘要

A synthetic lubricant base stock is provided hang a kinematic viscosity at 100 DEG C of from 5 to about 300 cS and a VI greater than 100. The base stock comprises random co-oligomers of an alpha olefin or mixtures thereof and an olefinic substituted aromatic compound which co-oligomers are prepared in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst.
