Liqui Moly PAO question.

[GI_GRIFF]

A lot of you here on Bitog know how to read an SDS on oil and differentiate between Group III and PAO base stock, roughly. Attempting to learn information like base stock off an SDS is Gibberish to me. I realize Mobil is God's oil here on Bitog, but would one of you please attempt to read the information and let me know if this Liqui Moly has some PAO or not. It is Liqui Moly Top Tec 4210 0w-30 I will put a link to this particular Liqui Moly oil on here. Thanks for your help. https://static.liqui-moly.com/akene...zUzMjI1ODY3*FPAU*MjAwMTY1MDIwOS4xNzUzMjI1ODY3

1-decene homopolymer, hydrogenated is a PAO and the oil appears to have between 30-60% by weight. They don't give exact percent numbers which is common in the industry.

Different company, but this Chevron Phillips site might interest the nerds.

It has. Considering the pour point, it is probably on the lower end, between 30-60%.

Not enough PAO to label it as synthetic in Germany.

"Hightech-Leichtlaufmotoröl auf Basis Synthesetechnologie."

What you are saying is on the 30 end of the 30 to 60 on the MSDS. What percent is a full synthetic in Germany, do you know, because I don't. Thanks for the input, by the way.

I don't know what the cut off is for German advertising but you could look up the SDS of one of their synthetic products labeled "VOLLSYNTHESE" and compare.

You know, I learn SO MUCH on this BITOG website. Thanks for the help!
