How is Synthetic and Conventional Oil Different?
Although you might know that synthetic oils outperform conventional oils, you might not understand why. The differences begin at the molecular level.
Chances are good that you've previously read or heard that synthetic oil is an upgrade over conventional oil. But do you know why? And are you aware of all the benefits synthetic oil has to offer? It's true--synthetic oil is superior to conventional oil in almost every way. Here, we'll explain the science behind the superiority, and also add to the list of benefits that synthetics provide. Hopefully, this will help you make the right decision the next time you need to give your engine the oil replacement it requires to keep it working perfectly.
The Science Behind Synthetic Oils
Synthetics don’t contain the impurities and molecular irregularities inherent to conventional oils. Synthetics’ pure, uniform molecular structures impart properties that provide wear protection, extreme-temperature performance and fuel efficiency conventional lubricants just can’t touch – all of which helps you save money with vehicles that run better and last longer.
All oils, synthetic and conventional included, consist of molecular chains of hydrogen and carbon atoms, referred to as hydrocarbons. But in petroleum crude oil, many contaminating elements exist in its complex mixture of hydrocarbons, including sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen and metal components such as nickel or vanadium. These mixtures are then refined, resulting in a more concentrated end product. However, the chemical composition of conventional motor oil can vary substantially and depends on the raw crude oil refining process. Instead of having to be refined, synthetic oils are manufactured and chemically engineered for a certain molecular composition with a tailored and uniform structure. The orderly and planned design of the molecular structures in synthetic oil results in an end-product that is far more stable than their refined petroleum counterparts.
The Benefits of Synthetics Oils
- Protects against horsepower loss
- Less frequent oil changes
- Lower service costs
- Longer lasting engine
- Better engine performance
- Better viscosity means better performance in extreme temperature conditions
- Keeps engine cleaner
- Improves fuel efficiency
