Abstract
Abstract Novel synthetic lubricants having high viscosity index are made from lower olefins. These materials have a viscosity above about 2 cS at 100 DEG C. and viscosity index above about 130 and are characterized by internal methyl groups attached to side chain tertiary carbon atoms. Hydrocarbon lubricant can be based on propene feedstock with the resulting oligomer containing less than 2.5 methyl groups per 12 carbon atoms.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A hydrocarbon lubricant fluid composition having viscosity index made by the steps comprising; contacting a mixture comprising slightly branched and linear C 9 -C 18 alpha olefins under oligomerization conditions with CO reduced chromium catalyst on silica support; wherein said alpha olefins comprise the olefin metathesis reaction product of slightly branched higher olefinic hydrocarbons wherein said olefinic hydrocarbons comprise C 11 + hydrocarbons having about 1-2 methyl branches per 12 carbon atoms with the C 2 -C 4 1-alkenes in contact with metathesis catalyst, and said higher olefinic hydrocarbons comprise the oligomerization product of lower alkene oligomerized in contact with surface deactivated, acidic, medium pore, shape selective metallosilicate catalyst under oligomerization conditions; and separating the higher alpha olefins oligomerization reaction product to provide said lubricant having a branch index above 0.20, a viscosity index greater than 130 and a pour point less than -15° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
145 words
