This invention relates to a wax-containing crude oil or a wax-conta~ning fuel oil, in particular a wax-containing residual fuel oil, comprising a small amount of a polymer having predami-neonatal aliphatic hydrocarbon side chains of at least 14 carbon atoms, as pour point depressant.
Such oils are known from British patent specifications 1,161,188 and 1,154,966. The polymers described in this literature are linear polymers and although they show an excellent pour point depressing and flow improving effect, it has now been found that a still better pour point depressing, and flow improving effect can be obtained, in particular at law concentrations, if these pox lymers Howe a branched backbone.

on total monomers, of at least one polyolefinically unsaturated monomer which during polymerization results in a polymer having a branched backbone and substantially having no cross-linking.
Suitable monomers (A) are described in the above-mentioned British patent specification 1,161,188, in particular those having a saturated unbranched hydrocarbon chain of 18-30 carbon atoms as described in British patent specification 1,154,966.
Particularly preferred monomers (A) are aIkyl(meth)acrylates, such as n~octadecyl- and n-eicosyl(C20)(meth)acrylate, and dialkyl esters of unsaturated dicarbcxylic acids, such as Danube-nil (C21) esters of malefic fumaric and itaconic acid.
Suitable monomers (B) are styrenes methyl styrenes left.
bottle styrenes vinyltoluene and mono-olefins, such as ethylene, propylene and battalion, and preferably are monoolefinically, unsaturated compounds having nitrogen-containing groups, such as acrylonitrile, acxylamide, p-aminostyrene, in particular those having heterocyclic nitrogen-containing groups, such as vinylpyri-dine, in particular 4-vinylpyridine, and N-vinylpyrrolidone.
Suitable monomers (C) are polyesters of alkanepolyols, such as dills, trios and tutorials, and unsaturated monocar~oxylic acids, such as alkanediol di(meth)acrylates, trimethylolpropane in-(meth)acrylate and pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate. Suitable polyols have 1 to 12 carbon atoms, such as ethanediol, propane-dill, butanediol, in particular 1,4-butanediol; polyvinyl cam pounds, such as divinylesters of saturated or unsaturated dicer-boxlike acids such as Sioux N c, malefic, fumaric and itaconic acids and polyvinyl aromatic compounds, in particular divinely Bunsen.
