The addition of mixed thio acid amide molybdenum dithiocarbamates to lubricant compositions comprising magnesium detergents and/or overbased magnesium detergents, e.g., overbased magnesium sulfonate, provides lubricant compositions that suppress Low Speed Pre-Ignition and possess excellent low friction characteristics. Furthermore, the addition of molybdenum based friction reducing additives, e.g., mixed thio acid amide molybdenum dithiocarbamates, in combination with one or more fatty acid 2-hydroxyalkylamides, to lubricant compositions comprising magnesium detergents or overbased magnesium detergents provides lubricant compositions that suppress Low Speed Pre-ignition and possess excellent low friction characteristics.

A method for preparing a high viscosity index poly-α-olefin subjects α-olefin to a polymerization reaction in the presence of a metallocene catalyst to obtain a poly-α-olefin. The polymerization reaction is carried out in the absence of a solvent, and the metallocene catalyst is formed of, or is formed by interaction between, a metallocene compound and an activator.

Traction fluids comprising Formula I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII or a mixture thereof in combination with a base stock, a viscosity modifier, an anti-foaming agent, and an additive package.

To provide a hub bearing that is capable of reducing a delay in a response of the hub bearing and improving a steering stability of a vehicle. A hub bearing 1 includes an outer ring 2 serving as a stationary side raceway ring, a hub wheel 3 and an inner ring 5 serving as a rotatable side raceway ring, balls 4 serving as a plurality of rolling elements disposed between a raceway surface of the stationary side raceway ring and a raceway surface of the rotatable side raceway ring, and grease that lubricates a rolling contact part between each of the raceway surfaces and the rolling elements. The surface roughness of at least one raceway surface selected from the raceway surface of the stationary side raceway ring and the raceway surface of the rotatable side raceway ring in the rolling contact part is 0.03 μmRa or less. Further, the grease has a traction coefficient in the rolling contact part of 0.04 or less at 40° C. when a vehicle speed is 20 km/h or more.
