Abstract

See full text

Disclosed herein are monoester-based lubricant compositions and methods of making these monoester-based lubricant compositions. The monoester lubricant compositions comprise an isomeric mixture of at least one monoester species having a carbon number ranging from C8 to C40. In some embodiments, the methods for making the monoester-based lubricants utilize a biomass precursor and/or low value Fischer-Tropsch (FT) olefins and/or alcohols to produce high value monoester-based lubricants. In some embodiments, the monoester-based lubricants are derived from FT olefins and fatty acids. The fatty acids can be from a bio-based source (i.e., biomass, renewable source) or can be derived from FT alcohols via oxidation.
