The present invention describes a composition comprising at least one polyalkyl(meth)acrylate polymer having a number average molecular weight Mn of from 1000 to 10000 g/mol and a polydispersity Mw/Mn of from 1 to 8 and at least one ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer comprising units being derived from at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate having 1 to 30 carbon atoms in the alkyl residue. The composition is useful as cold flow improver in fossil fuel oil and or biodiesel fuel oil.

Composition to improve cold flow properties of fuel oils

The present invention relates to a lubricant composition for a process for reducing the paraffin content of mineral oil compositions, by providing a mineral oil composition with a dewaxing aid, cooling to form a paraffin precipitate and at least partly removing the paraffin precipitate formed. The dewaxing aid used is a copolymer mixture comprising at least three copolymers, the copolymers differing in the composition of the repeat units.

Method for dewaxing mineral oil compositions

The invention relates to a (meth)acrylate polymer for improving the viscosity index, which comprises a) from 5 to 60 wt % of repeating units that are derived from (meth)acrylates of formula (I), where R represents hydrogen or methyl and R1 is an alkyl radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, b) from 5 to 80 wt % of repeating units that are derived from (meth)acrylates of formula (II), where R is hydrogen or methyl and R2 is an alkyl radical having from 7 to 30 carbon atoms, and c) from 15 to 90 wt % of repeating units that are derived from (meth)acrylates of formula (III), where R is hydrogen or methyl, n is an integer in the range of 2 to 500 and A is C2-C4 alkylene and R3 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The invention further relates to novel lubricating oil compositions, to a method for producing the above-mentioned (meth)acrylate polymers and to the use thereof for improving the viscosity index of lubricating oil compositions that comprise at least one polar base oil.
