A lubricating oil composition comprising (A) an oil of lubricating viscosity; and, (B) as an additive component, an oil-soluble mixture of oxyalkylated hydrocarbyl phenol condensates wherein the oxyalkyl groups have the formula —(R′O) n — where R′ is an ethylene, a propylene or a butylene group; n is independently from 0 to 10; less than 45 mole % of the phenolic hydroxyl groups in the mixture are not oxyalkylated; and more than 55 mole % of the oxyalkyl groups in the mixture have the formula —R′O— where n is 1. |
