Although the practice of deriving useful oils by the distillation of bituminous shales and various organic substances was generally known, it was not until the nineteenth century that distillation processes were widely used for a number of useful substances, including tars for waterproofing; gas for illumination; and various chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and oils. In 1833, Dr. Benjamin Silliman contributed an article to the American Journal of Science that contained the following: The petroleum, sold in the Eastern states under the name of Seneca Oil, is a dark brown color, between that of tar and molasses, and its degree of consistency is not dissimilar, according to temperature; its odor is strong and too well known to need description.

The chemical history of o-phosphoric acid esters is as old as that of polyglycols. Triphenyl phosphate was synthesized for the first time in 1854. Phosphoric acid esters attracted industrial attention for the first time around 1920 as softening agents for cellulose nitrate. In recent years, tertiary phosphoric acid esters have been further developed as defoamants, wear-resistant additives, and especially as fire-resistant hydraulic fluids. Although research work on dibasic acid esters began long before, these materials—in their various chemical forms—assumed an important role as lubricants with the advent of World War II.

Although originally intended to help regulators interpret performance data for the licensing and certification of gasoline and diesel engine oils, the classification system is now used as a guide for base stock selection across a broad range of lubricant products. The definitions have evolved to the present five-group standard set in 1995. 1. 03 Group IV all polyalphaolefins (PAO) Group V naphthenic stocks, synthetics, and other non-PAO base stocks not in Groups I, II, III, or IV Viscosity Index 80 to <120 80 to <120 ≥120 Groups I, II, and III are generally derived from crude, and they are most often thought of as mineral oil based.
