AI Technical Summary
Conventional lubricants lack the desired kinematic viscosity, viscosity index, and pour point, leading to reduced fuel efficiency and increased CO2 emissions.
A lubricant composition comprising a polyalphaolefin Type IV base oil component in the range of 30 wt.% to 70 wt.% and an alkoxylated polytetrahydrofurane of formula (I) in the range of 15 wt.% to 30 wt.% is used, which provides the necessary viscosity and friction modification properties.
The lubricant composition achieves improved fuel efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions by maintaining desired kinematic viscosity, high viscosity index, and low pour point, while also enhancing friction modification properties and shear stability.
