   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   The International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) also has standards for motor oil. Introduced in 2004, GF-4 [27] applies to SAE 0W-20, 5W-20, 0W-30, 5W-30, and 10W-30 viscosity grade oils. In general, ILSAC works with API in creating the newest gasoline oil specification, with ILSAC adding an extra requirement of fuel ...

3. SAE J300 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J300

   A 10W-30 oil must pass the SAE J300 viscosity grade requirements for both 10W and 30, and all limitations placed on the viscosity grades, such as the requirement that a 10W oil must fail the 5W requirements. Viscosity index improvers (VIIs) are special polymer additives added to oil, usually to improve cold weather performance in passenger ...

6. Heavy crude oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_crude_oil

   Heavy oil is asphaltic and contains asphaltenes and resins. It is "heavy" (dense and viscous) due to the high ratio of aromatics and naphthenes to linear alkanes and high levels of NSOs (nitrogen, sulfur, oxygen and heavy metals). Heavy oil has a higher percentage of compounds with over 60 carbon atoms and hence a high boiling point and ...
