Abstract

A combination of a low and a high molecular weight polyalkylmethacrylate has been found to be effective in reducing the pour point of a wax isomerate to a level that cannot be obtained with conventional pour point depressants. In a preferred embodiment, the wax isomerate is a slack wax isomerate.
