Abstract

What is disclosed are the method of making a lubricating-oil additive which improves the viscosity index and has a dispersing and detergent action, which method comprises graft copolymerizing, onto an oil-soluble base polymer, from 0.5 to 10 parts of a polymerizable lactam together with 0.1 to 3 parts of a polymerizable N-heterocyclic compound, said parts being by weight of said base polymer, and the lubricating-oil additives so produced.
