SYNTHETIC OIL
Synthetic oil contains no contaminants and the hydrocarbon molecules are very uniform, giving the synthetic oil base better mechanical properties at extreme high and low temperature.
By contrast, synthetic oil is not distilled from crude oil. It is made through a chemical process known as the Fischer-Tropsch process, starting with raw materials like methane, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide.
This process was developed by Germany in WWII, when that country's access to crude oil was very limited.
