PREPARING LUBRICATING OILS USING RADIATION

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4037682
A process for producing lubricating oils from paraffinic feed stock by the use of high-energy radiation is outlined. in this process, the feed stock containing at least 75 wt.% paraffins and boiling within 100 to 700 deg F is irradiated until a total dose of 5 x 10/sup -3/ to 1 kwh/lb is received, and a product fraction boiling within 750 to 950 deg F and having a viscosity of> 35 SSU/2lO deg F and a viscosity index> 120 is recovered.
