Abstract:
The presently claimed invention is directed to poly(meth)acrylate copolymers containing alkyl(meth)acrylate comonomer with branched C17 alkyl group. The invention is further related to lubricating oil compositions comprising poly(meth)acrylate copolymers containing alkyl(meth)acrylate comonomer with branched C17 alkyl group as viscosity index improving component.
Abstract:
This disclosure is directed to a lubricant composition having improved compatibility with fluoropolymer seals. The lubricant composition includes a base oil and a sulfonate ester. The disclosure is also directed to an additive package for a lubricant composition that provides improved compatibility with fluoropolymer seals. The additive package includes the sulfonate ester. The disclosure is also directed to a method of improving compatibility of a lubricant composition with a fluoropolymer seal disposed in an internal combustion engine. The sulfonate ester improves the compatibility with fluoropolymer seals of the resultant lubricant composition.
