Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
A synthetic lubricating oil composition comprising a major amount of an aliphatic ester base oil having lubricating properties and formed by the reaction of a pentaerythritol or trimethylolpropane and an organic acid having from about 2 to about 12 carbon atoms per molecule together with a pour point depressant amount of a mixture of a mineral oil having lubricating properties and a pour point ranging from -40° F to +35° F with a copolymer of two or more esters of methacrylic acid characterized by the formula: ##STR2## wherein R is a radical ranging from butyl to stearyl and n is an integer giving a molecular weight to said polymer ranging from 5000 to 500,000.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
A synthetic lubricating oil composition comprising a major amount of an aliphatic ester base oil having lubricating properties and formed by the reaction of a pentaerythritol or trimethylolpropane and an organic acid having from about 2 to about 12 carbon atoms per molecule together with a pour point depressant amount of a mixture of a mineral oil having lubricating properties and a pour point ranging from -40° F to +35° F with a copolymer of two or more esters of methacrylic acid characterized by the formula: ##STR2## wherein R is a radical ranging from butyl to stearyl and n is an integer giving a molecular weight to said polymer ranging from 5000 to 500,000.
