C18 - Method for Upgrading Low-valued Linear Alpha-Olefins of C18 or more

摘要

According to one embodiment, a linear alpha-olefin having a low-cost C18 or higher hydrocarbon chain is used as a raw material, converted to a linear internal olefin having a double bond position distribution controlled, and then subjected to oligomerization to produce a high-quality lubricating base oil. The method is disclosed.
