Benefits of technology

[0009]Improving engine structure is of course important as a method for improving fuel efficiency of automobile engines, but it is also known that lowering viscosity of lubricating oils is effective in improving fuel efficiency. Therefore, as previously mentioned, engine oils having an SAE viscosity grade of 5W20 and a high-temperature, high-shear (106 s1) viscosity of 2.6 mPa·s are already being used as fuel-efficient gasoline engine oils for four-wheel driv

Problems solved by technology

Nevertheless, fuel-efficient gasoline engine oils for four-wheel drive vehicles having an SAE viscosity grade of 5W20 cannot be expected to have a high-temperature, high-shear viscosity that is as high as 2.6 mPa·s and therefo

Abstract

Provided is a lubricating oil composition that is highly fuel-efficient and has high wear resistance and is particularly suited for lubrication of a motorcycle four-cycle gasoline engine or a diesel engine vehicle having an exhaust gas after-treatment device. The lubricating oil composition, which is a lubricating oil composition having an SAE viscosity grade of 5W20, comprises a base oil and predetermined amounts of additive components comprising of a nitrogen-containing ash-free dispersant, an alkali earth metal-containing detergent, a phosphorus-containing anti-wear agent, an antioxidant, and a viscosity index-improving agent, wherein the viscosity index is within a range of 140 to 230, the high-shear viscosity at 150° C. is 2.9 mPa·s or higher, and the NOACK evaporation loss is 13% or less.
