Abstract

A polyol ester is described which is derived from: PA1 (A) an aliphatic or alicyclic polyol; and PA1 (B) an aliphatic monocarboxylic mixture derived from a natural vegetable oil, said acid mixture comprising at least about 72% by weight of oleic acid. The invention also relates to compositions comprising the polyol esters and at least one antioxidant, and lubricating oil compositions comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity and the polyol esters of the invention. Lubricating oil compositions comprising polyol esters of the invention, at least one antioxidant, and an oil of lubricating viscosity also are described and are particularly useful.
