- the present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition, and more particularly to a lubricating oil composition for an internal combustion engine.
- lubricating oil prevents the sliding surfaces from coming into direct contact with each other by forming an oil film between the sliding surfaces (fluid lubrication).
