Fuel Efficiency of SAE 5W-20 Friction Modified Gasoline Engine Oil

Abstract

<div class="htmlview paragraph">An SAE 5W-20 ILSAC GF-2 gasoline engine oil, which improves vehicle fuel efficiency by more than 1.5% relative to conventional SAE 5W-30 gasoline engine oils, was newly developed. And the target that 1.5% fuel efficiency improvement remains more than 10,000km was also achieved. The viscosity of this oil was optimized to satisfy both fuel economy and anti-wear performances. MoDTC and thiadiazole were added to achieve the target.</div>
