A process for making high density fuels having the potential to increase the range and/or loiter time of Navy platforms. Derivation of these fuels from a sustainable source will decrease the carbon footprint of the Department of Defense (DoD) and reduce reliance on nonsustainable petroleum sources. Fuels based on barbatene and thujopsene have volumetric energy densities comparable to JP-10 and can be produced from biomass sugars.

An oleaginous corrosion-resistant lubricating composition comprising at least one poly-alpha olefin synthetic oil and effective amounts of metal salts of sulfonic acids, metal salts of carboxylic acids, metal salts of mixtures of said sulfonic and carboxylic acids, alkylated aromatic stabilizers as solubility modifiers, pour-point depressants, at least one antioxidant, triazole deactivator compounds and fluoroacrylate copolymers.

The engine lubricating system can become contaminated with carbon deposits and sludge. Sludge is where the combustion by-products that have entered the oil base saturate this oil base, thus forming a thick carbon rich substance. Sludge is not wanted within the engine. Sludge and or carbon deposits in the motor oil cause problems. Such carbon deposits form in the motor oil from heat, pressure, and namely combustion gases that have leaked pasted the piston rings. Turpentine and terpenes, hereafter referred to as terpenes, have shown that these chemicals can breakdown carbon which has been deposited within the engine's oil base.

A low viscosity oil has more than 50% by weight of 9-methyl-11,13-dioctyltricosane. A lubricating composition having this low viscosity oil as base oil and, optionally, another base oil or an additive. The low viscosity oil has a kinematic viscosity at 100 C., measured by the ASTM D445 standard, of 4 to 8 mm.sup.2.Math.s.sup.1. The low viscosity oil can be prepared using a metallocene catalyst, and the low viscosity oil as high performance lubricant can be used for lubrication in the field of motors, hydraulic fluids and gears, in particular bridges and transmissions.

A liquid composition which has an excellent coating property at room temperature and is retained on a surface to be coated after application on the surface, and a terminal-fitted electric wire having an increased corrosion resistance using the same. The liquid composition contains a high-consistency material, a low-viscosity liquid having a kinetic viscosity of 100 mm.sup.2/s or lower measured at 40 C. in accordance with JIS K2283, and an adduct containing an acidic phosphate ester containing one or more kinds of compounds represented by General Formulae (1) and (2), and a metal,

P(O)(OR.sub.1)(OH).sub.2(1),

P(O)(OR.sub.1).sub.2(OH)(2),

where R.sub.1 represents a hydrocarbon group having 4 to 30 carbon atoms.
