Abstract

The present invention deals with the certain novel esters which are prepared by the reaction of an alpha methyl alcohol and a fatty acid. These materials are useful as lubricating oils where outstanding liquidity, resistance to oxidation, and minimal variation in viscosity as a function of temperature is required. This combination of properties make these compounds excellent candidates as additives to synthetic lubricating oil and extreme pressure additives.
