Synthetic Base Oil Technology Development and Application Research

Synthetic BaseOil Technology Development and Application Research
1. Technological Evolution: From Mineralto Synthetic Oils
The global lubricant base oil industry hasundergone three technological revolutions. Early mineral oils (Groups I-III)faced limitations like low viscosity indices (VI 95 for Group I) and poorlow-temperature performance (-15℃ pour point). Hydroisomerization boosted GroupII/III oils with VI 120-140. In the past decade, synthetic base oils (GroupsIV/V) have grown at 5.6% CAGR, reaching 4.8 million tons in 2022, withpolyalphaolefins (PAO) dominating 62% market share and alkylated naphthalenes(AN) accounting for 18%.
2. Composition and PerformanceCharacteristics
  1. PAO Molecular Structure Controlled branching from C8-C12 α-olefin polymerization. Heao's PAO6 exemplifies:
  • 5.95cSt @100℃, VI 135
  • -58℃ pour point, 2260mPa·s CCS (-30℃)
  • 4.7% Noack volatility (ASTM D5800)

  1. Alkylated Naphthalene Advantages Conjugated naphthalene structure enhances performance. Heao AN5 parameters:
  • 26.5cSt @40℃, 220℃ flash point
  • 803min rotary oxygen bomb value (155% > Group III)
  • 0.1mg/cm² copper corrosion (ISO 4263)
