Whats in this GC stuff?

Hi new to this forum did a spectro get done on this and what is the secret ester?

If only it was that simple... You can break a cake into atoms to define what's there, but you'd never be able to assemble these atoms back into the cake ingredients...

Reason I ask is I was cleaning old paper work from lab and found old dated 1997 information on a polymer/ester for motor and lube oil usage. Some info.

"ester type is completly shear stable"

"Highest load carring capacity compared to all other lubricating oil base fluids avalible in
the market"

cam lobe wear intake (average) 5.2 Milli/gram
Same oil with out 8% Polymer/Ester 34.5 Milli/Gram.

"possible to reach the EC-II pass level without using a friction modifier"

"In full synthetic premium oils concintrations of up to 33% are commercially used"

"possible to formulate low ZDDP (500ppm) oils without losing anti wear proformance"

"these results are proprietary information to out customers"

So this is dated 1997 when did this Green stuff show up?

Who/what company wrote that and to whom was it addressed?


See my April 10th post regarding these polymer esters:

http://theoildrop.server101.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=51;t=000029;p=9#000352

These development of these polymer esters had begun in the lab in the 1989 time frame. One of the first papers appeared in 1991.

Was presented to me in late 1996 have samples of the stuff and may dump in my ratty bronco to see if it quite's it down as far as who a major additive company that is global. Wanted to know what the testing shoed since this interests me.
Thier is a whole lot more in the data I have but not wanting to let cat out of bag. I may blend this stuff if it sells for $5 a quart.
