Eneos 5w30 Full Synthetic or Synthetic Blend?

[hondero69]

Hi EP Hatchers .. I recently bought Eneos 5W30 oil for my EP, had knowledge that the engine oil was 100% synthetic oil but when I get I realize that says synthetic blend that is 10% synthetic oil and the rest is traditional motor oil..so my question is if the oil is not 100% synthetic or is it because it is done in USA? what you think guys.

i believe synthetic blend is exactly that..its a blend of synthentics and oils/detergents..not 100% synthetic like the synthetic version.

have you googled anything on "blend of synthetics vs Synthetics?"

Synthetic Vs. Synthetic Blend Motor Oil

Synthetic motor oil and synthetic blend motor oil are two different types of motor oil. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, and it pays to research which will best suit your automobile.
Features
Synthetic motor oil is motor oil that is made from refining and processing man-made chemicals. Synthetic blend motor oil is motor oil that is made by combining synthetic motor oil and traditional petroleum-based motor oil. The amount of synthetic motor oil content in synthetic blend motor oil is 10 percent or less.
Function
Synthetic motor oils last longer than traditional motor oils because they resist breakdown and high temperatures more efficiently. Synthetic blend motor oils tend to last just as long as traditional motor oils, since traditional oil is the main ingredient.
Cost
Synthetic motor oils and synthetic blend motor oils tend to cost up to three to four times more than traditional motor oils.
Considerations
Both traditional and synthetic blend motor oils have to be changed every 3,000 miles. Synthetic motor oils can be changed every 6,000 miles.
Warning
Synthetic blend motor oils do not offer much to the costumer, and are marketed because they are extremely cheap for manufacturers to produce.

well people just fyi..last night I chat with a sales agent of a vendor asking about" eneos 5w30 is synthetic blend or full synthetic?" because they show in the web page "full synthetic" he told me" eneos 5w30 is synthetic blend,when it was labeled in japan it was listed as full synthetic,since they go off different parameter than in the US,since they are they are labeled in the US now ,it's technically a synthetic blend by US standart" I ask "is the same thing,is the same typical properties" and he answer "Yes"
