[QUOTE=semtex;285750]The word ester does not appear for any of their three synthetic 5W-30 formulations. You said you did the research, so please show us EXACTLY where Mobil claims that their 5W-30 formulation -- any of them -- contain esters.

Many synthetic oils, including Mobil 1, contain a variety of synthetic fluids, and usually this includes esters."

Agree about their data sheets, they don't exactly give away the formulas. Of course, they do not contain the Magic Nissan Nanoparticles, so the oil is entirely useless.

Engine lubricating oils require the presence of additives to protect the engine from wear. For almost forty years, the principal antiwear additive for engine lubricating oils has been zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP). However, ZDDP must be used in concentrations of 1.4 wt. % or greater to be effective.
Pennzoil Platinum contains 3.00% of Zinc alkyl dithiophosphate (ester). I use Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 and highly recommend it. http://www.epc.shell.com/Docs/GSAP_msds_00018715.PDF Lubricating oil containing an alkyl alkoxyalkylxanthate and zinc dialkyldithiophosphate - US Patent 5026492 Description |
