Abstract

AbstractThe low‐temperature fluid properties of synthetic base fluids are described, showing how these properties are related to the molecular structure of the base fluid. Examples are given of how the principles of molecular design can be used to improve the low‐temperature properties of synthetic base fluids, focusing on esters derived from both natural and petrochemical raw materials. Results of studies using calorimetric and spectroscopic methods, including differential scanning calorimetry and nuclear magnetic resonance are presented, showing how these techniques can be used to give more detailed insight into the changes occurring in fluids at low temperatures.
