A lubricating composition including a polymer blend of a modified styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer and poly(meth)acrylate copolymer effective to maintain a pumpable fluid at low temperatures.

A lubricating composition including a polymer blend of a modified styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer and poly(meth)acrylate copolymer effective to maintain a pumpable fluid at low temperatures.

The lubricating oil composition includes a base oil and a fullerene adduct.

The present invention relates to a process for producing esters comprising reaction of methyl biodiesel or free fatty acids with a polyhydroxylated alcohol, in the presence of a biocatalyst, which is a fermented solid containing lipases of Rhizomucor miehei produced by culturing the microorganism on agricultural waste by solid state fermentation.

Various liquid and semisolid lubricant compositions are provided, in particular lubricant compositions are provided which have been chemically modified to increase a concentration of triacylglyceride estolide content. The estolides can be produced via esterification with one or more fatty acids such as palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, or a combination thereof. Both liquid and semisolid lubricant compositions are provided.
