  • Patent number: 10240102
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are oligomerization processes using feedstocks containing 1-hexene to produce an oligomer product, and methods for recovering a heavy 1-hexene oligomer from the oligomer product and hydrogenating the heavy 1-hexene oligomer. The resultant hydrogenated heavy 1-hexene oligomer can be blended with other PAO's to form 100 cSt and 40 cSt lubricant compositions, which have viscosity index and pour point properties that are equivalent to or better than respective 100 cSt and 40 cSt 1-decene PAO's.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 16, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 26, 2019
    Assignee: Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, LP
    Inventors: Brooke L. Small, Yemi Oyerinde, Russell J. Bak, Jeff C. Gee

  • Patent number: 10005972
    Abstract: Disclosed are processes for forming an oligomer product by contacting a feedstock olefin containing trisubstituted olefins with a solid acid catalyst. The oligomer product can be formed at an oligomerization temperature in a range from ?20° C. to 40° C. Polyalphaolefins produced from the oligomer product can have reduced viscosities at low temperatures.
