What is the difference between conventional and synthetic oils?
Synthetic lubricants are composed of select base stocks and special purpose additives chemically assembled with planned, predictable properties. Whereas petroleum oils are pumped from the earth and refined, synthetics are custom-designed in the laboratory, with each phase of their molecular construction programmed to produce, in effect, the ideal lubricant.
Some synthetic oils use petroleum base stocks. AMSOIL uses synthetic base stocks, called polyalphaolefins (PAO). PAO's are synthesized monomers created in a laboratory.
