Recommendations are given for improving the antioxidant and anticorrosion properties of vegetable oils by etherification with butyl and decyl alcohols on Zeocar-2 catalyst. Technologies are proposed for obtaining lube oils of the "new generation" with different applications by compounding rapeseed oil butyl ether with high-viscosity (viscosity index VI>150) castor and petroleum oils and all-season oils by thickening rapeseed oil ether with polymethacrylate PMA "D" (VI>200).
