Notes:<br />

All data on this table are for comparative purposes.<br />

The classes of fluids have a range of properties that<br />

do not represent the performance of an actual fluid.<br />

Values reported for fluids including the paraffin<br />

hydrocarbon oil are without additives such as EP<br />

agents or stabilizers.<br />
