Summary:

The three main VI Improvers for multigrade engine oils, Polyalkyl-Methacrylate, Ethylene-Propylene-Copolymer and Diene-Styrene-Copolymer were compared with respect to their effect uponViscosity-temperature relationshipViscosity as a function of shear stress and thermal oxidationWear protectionDeposit formationThe results showed considerable differences in polymer effect. Interesting properties in one area are not necessarily an indication of satisfactory performance in others. Selection of different polymers appears necessary for diesel and petrol engine lubricants
