Patent ID: 7956018

Claim:
A lubricant composition comprising: a) a base oil comprising a consecutive number of carbon atoms and greater than 10 weight % and less than 70 weight % cycloparaffins, wherein the cycloparaffins have a ratio of monocycloparaffins to multiocycloparaffins of greater than 15, and having a viscosity index greater than a Viscosity Index Factor calculated by the following equation: 28× Ln (Kinematic Viscosity at 100° C.) +95; b) greater than 15 weight % DI additive package; and c) less than 7 weight % VI improver; wherein the lubricant composition has: a traction coefficient less than 0.023 when measured at a kinematic viscosity of 1 mm 2 /s and a slide to roll ratio of 40%; a dynamic viscosity at −35° C. of less than 6200 mPa·s; an MRV at −40° C. of less than 60,000 mPa·s; and a CCS Viscosity at −35° C. of less than 6200 mPa·s.
