The Hidden Dangers of Topping Up Your Lube Oil

Synthetic lubricants were born out of a need for better lubricating properties, and the unavailability of crude oil in Germany. Aviation was the first application for synthetic lubricants, as they are superior to mineral oils at cold start up and cold climates. Synthetic oils have a higher Viscosity Index, offering better viscosity stability at varying temperatures. Group IV synthetic oils are man-made from PAO’s (polyalphaolefins) and Group V oils are made up of polyesters, phosphate esters, di-esters, alkylated benzenes and other synthetic molecules.

Another way of comparing the various refinement of oil is to compare the oil to a fluid with balls of varying sizes in suspension. The lower the Group level of oil, the greater variety of ball size and shapes (which represent the types of molecules). Group 1 oils will have millions of differing atomic compounds (molecules) making up the oil. As the oil is refined, the oil is more uniform and the ‘balls’ are the same size. Synthetic oils have only one size ball.
