Q
what’s the difference between synthetic oil and regular oil
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Synthetic oil and regular (conventional) oil differ primarily in their production and chemical structure. Synthetic oil is engineered from chemical compounds to offer superior performance, including better viscosity at extreme temperatures, reduced engine wear, and longer intervals between oil changes. In contrast, conventional oil is derived directly from crude oil and has a less uniform molecular structure, which can result in quicker degradation and accumulation of contaminants. Synthetic oils are also designed to keep engines cleaner and are typically recommended for high-performance or newer vehicles. Although synthetic oil is more expensive, its enhanced lubrication and durability make it a cost-effective option for those seeking to maximize engine life and efficiency.
