What Are the Benefits of Using Full Synthetic Engine Oil for Cars?
1 Answers
Here are the benefits of using full synthetic engine oil for cars: 1. Full synthetic engine oil outperforms mineral oil in terms of lubrication, degradation resistance, and cleaning capabilities, as it contains additives such as anti-wear agents and detergents. 2. Low evaporation loss. Synthetic oil is typically a pure compound with a narrow boiling range, resulting in significantly lower evaporation loss compared to mineral oil. This helps reduce fuel consumption, decrease exhaust emissions, and extend the lifespan of catalytic converters. Additionally, synthetic oil offers superior chemical stability, better radiation resistance, higher oil film strength, and less foaming compared to traditional mineral-based engine oils. 3. Excellent viscosity-temperature characteristics and low-temperature fluidity. Synthetic oils have a higher viscosity index than mineral oils, meaning their viscosity changes less with temperature. At the same high-temperature viscosity, most synthetic oils have lower pour points (or freezing points) and lower low-temperature viscosity than mineral oils. This allows synthetic oils to form the required oil film at lower viscosities, effectively protecting the engine. Consequently, it reduces energy consumption during cold starts and extends battery life.
