Abstract
The invention relates to oil compositions containing metallocene catalyzed high viscosity index polyalphaolefins (HVI-PAO). In one embodiment the oil formulation comprises a metallocene catalyzed HVI-PAO with a viscosity greater than 125 cSt kv 100° C. and a viscosity index greater than 100, a second base stock with a viscosity of at least 2 cSt kv 100° C. and less than 60 cSt kv 100° C. wherein the second base stock is at least 60 cSt kv 100° C. less than the metallocene HVI-PAO, an ester with a viscosity of at least 2 and less than 6, the ester comprising more than 10 weight percent and less than 30 weight percent of the oil formulation, the oil formulation having a viscosity index of greater than 195. The use of metallocene catalyzed HVI-PAOs in a bimodal blend provides advantages in improved shear stability, and other properties related to shear stability.
