Although additives of many diverse types have been developed to meet special lubrication needs, their principal functions are relatively few in number. This universal synthetic lubricant additive (invention) with micro lubrication technology, when used as directed will reduce the oxidative or thermal degradation of the host oil, substantially reduce the deposition of harmful deposits in lubricated parts, minimize rust and corrosion, control frictional properties, reduce wear, temperature, sludge, varnishes and prevent destructive metal-to-metal contact, reduce fuel consumption and harmful emissions while improving performance through increased horsepower and torque. Further this technology lends itself to further development of a host of energy/emission reduction products from conditioners for kerosene, diesel, bunker-C heavy oils to gasoline, cutting oils, penetrating lubricants, electrical dielectric coatings, oxidation inhibitors and electrical terminal coatings. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A synthetic lubricant additive, comprising: (a) polymerized alpha-olefins; (b) hydrolsomerized high viscosity index hydro-treated, severe hydro-cracked base oil (ISO viscosity grade 32); (c) synthetic sulfonates; (d) vacuum distilled non-aromatic solvent less than 0.5% aromatic by volume; and (e) between 0.001 and 10 volume percent liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), comprising a stable aqueous dispersion of PTFE particles in water. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1 comprising 55 percent by volume of said polymerized alpha-olefins. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1 comprising between 15 and 25 percent by volume of said hydroisomerized high viscosity index hydro-treated, severe hydro-cracked base oil. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1 comprising between 0.025 and 3 percent by volume of said liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1 comprising between 17 and 25 percent by volume of said vacuum distilled non-aromatic solvent. ### Claim 6 A synthetic lubricant additive, comprising: (a) 55 percent by volume of polymerized alpha-olefins; (b) 21 percent by volume of a hydrolsomerized high viscosity index hydro-treated, severe hydro-cracked base oil (ISO viscosity grade 32); (c) 2 percent by volume of synthetic sulfonates; (d) 21.55 percent by volume of vacuum distilled non-aromatic solvent less than 0.5% aromatic by volume; and (e) 0.45 percent by volume of liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), said liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene comprising a stable aqueous dispersion of PTFE particles in water. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) A motor oil composition, comprising: (a) between 85 and 90 percent by volume of motor oil; and (b) between 10 and 15 percent by volume of the synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) A method of producing the synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1, comprising: (a) blending between 20 and 60 percent by volume of alpha-olefins with 20 to 55 percent by volume of hydrolsomerized base oil; (b) blending between 10 to 40 percent by volume of vacuum distilled non-aromatic solvent less than 0.5% aromatic by volume with 0.5 to 10 percent by volume of synthetic sulfonates; and (c) blending the blend from (a) and (b) with 0.001 to 10 percent by volume of polytetrafluoroethylene. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) A method of producing the synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1, comprising: (a) blending approximately 20 to 60% by volume of alpha-olefins with approximately 20% by volume hydroisomerized High VI HT base oils; (b) Blending approximately 1 percent by volume of non-aromatic solvents less than 0.5% aromatic by volume with 1 percent by volume of synthetic sulfonates; (c) blending the blend from (a) and (b) with 20 percent by volume of said non-aromatic solvent; and (d) blending the blends from (a), (b) and (c) with 1 percent by volume of liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) A motor oil, comprising: (a) twenty parts by volume of conventional mineral based motor oil; (b) twenty parts by volume of synthetic based motor oil; and (c) 2 parts by volume of the universal synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The synthetic lubricant additive of claim 1, comprising: (a) said polymerized alpha-olefins between 20 and 60 percent by volume; (b) said hydroisomerized high viscosity index hydro-treated, severe hydro-cracked base oil (ISO viscosity grade 32) between 20 and 55 percent by volume; (c) said synthetic sulfonates between 0.5 and 10 percent by volume; (d) said vacuum distilled non-aromatic solvent between 10 and 40 percent by volume; and (e) said liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene between 0.001 and 10 percent by volume. ### Claim 12 (depends on 7) The motor oil composition of claim 7, wherein said motor oil comprises a conventional motor oil. ### Claim 13 (depends on 7) The motor oil composition of claim 7, wherein said motor oil comprises a synthetic motor oil.
