  • Publication number: 20100160196
    Abstract: A copolymer which can be used in power transmission fluids to provide improved viscometric properties is disclosed. The copolymer includes a mixture of alcohols having side chains with an average number of carbons ranging from greater than 8 to less than 12 defined by the following formula: C n = ? i = j i = z ? X i ? Cn i ? i = j i = z ? X i where Xi is the mole fraction of alcohol (i); Cni represents the number of carbon atoms in alcohol (i); j is the lowest number of carbons in an alcohol in the copolymer and must be at least 6; and z is the highest number of carbons in an alcohol.
