Description:

A combination of environmental-driven legislation and a need for improved economics currently presents both OEMs and fleet owners with a conflicting set of performance and operational requirements. These include lower emission and particulate levels, fuel economy, longer drain/service intervals and enhanced engine durability. Improved engine lubricants will play a crucial role in achieving these goals. The impact of base fluid composition and viscosity grade on emission/particulate levels and fuel economy of a Euro II engine is being investigated. Polyalphaolefin-based lubricants appear as an encouraging solution as shown by our results centered around an SAE 5W40 grade.
