Zusammenfassung: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lubricant composition having improved fluidity, particularly low-temperature fluidity. SOLUTION: The lubricant composition includes (a) an API Group III base stock, (b) at least one semi-crystalline viscosity modifier and (c) at least one LOFI having a side-chain distribution satisfying the following requirements: (1) the distribution contains C8-C18side chains with an average number of carbons ranging from 12.4 to 14.4; (2) the side chain distribution is bi-modal with a lower portion of the bi-modal distribution made up primarily of C12and an upper portion of the distribution made up primarily of C16, C18or combinations thereof; (3) the total mol% of the upper portion of the distribution must be less than that of the lower portion of the distribution; and (4) the amount of C12on the side chain must be at least 40 mol% of the total side chain distribution amount.
