Polyalphaolefins (PAO) are non-polar synthetic lubricant bases (polymerised oils) classified in group IV according to the API lubricant base categories. PAOs are commonly used in engine oils (also for electric vehicles), hydraulics, compressors, gears and bearings, which operate in extreme temperature environments. They are also used in wind generators and as lubricant bases for grease formulation.
