No I wasn't...as I told you, I understand isomers and their behaviours, and what makes a base-stock "better".

Can you stop making stuff up ?
This is getting ridiculous...
Yes, it's getting ridiculous:

You continue to use it, and made up other technical sounding terms to try to paint a picture that doesn't exist, but sounds accurate to the
gullible non technical...
If you want to sound technical and precise, be technical and precise.
When I post something technical and precise, then I get:

Laughable..
Even though you knew that I was explaining not the BOQI but what I meant by linearity and how it affected tribological properties such as the viscosity index (VI). And, yes, the VI is an important part of the base-oil quality.
Typical of you, rather than discussing something
useful -- as opposed to posting pieces of tribological lectures you can find in any corner on the Internet -- you always try to turn the discussion into I'm right -- you're wrong -- I know it all -- you have no idea what you're talking about -- etc.
It would be a lot more useful to actually try to discuss that great paper where they were establishing direct quantitative relationships between the molecular structure and tribological properties, as opposed to trying to ridicule the other's posts so that you can trash the BOQI or any other idea they have.
