Sulfur-free, ashless, and low phosphorus-containing lubricant compositions for use as engine oil having improved oxidation stability. The lubricant composition can include about 60.0 mass % to about 99.8 mass % of an oil base stock, at least one ashless antiwear additive, at least one ashless detergent, and at least one antioxidant, based on a total mass of the lubricant composition. The oil base stock can include at least one polyalphaolefin and at least one alkyl naphthalene. The lubricant composition can contain less than about 0.05 mass % phosphorus, less than about 0.05 mass % sulfur, and less than about 0.05 mass % ash. The lubricant composition can be made by a process that includes combining the above-mentioned components to provide a lubricant composition. |
