Abstract
Abstract Compositions useful as dispersants and viscosity modifiers in lubricants are produced by (I) preparing an ene reaction intermediate from an olefinic carboxylic acid or derivative thereof (preferably maleic anhydride) and a terpolymer of ethylene, a C 3-8 α-monoolefin and a non-conjugated diene or triene, and (II) reacting said ene reaction intermediate with a monoamine-polyamine mixture.
