The paper present the results carried out in order to produce synthetic ester oils with a complex structure on the basis of sebacic acid with beneficial tribological properties. Three series of unsymmetrical diesters have been synthesized by taking into account superior aliphatic alcohols such as 2-ethyl-hexanol, isodecanol and isotridecanol along with special alcohols of a complex alkyl-aryl structure, namely 2-phenoxy-ethanol, 2-[(o sec butyl)-phenoxy] ethanol and 2-[(p-nonyl)-phenoxy] ethanol, respectively. There were also synthesized the symmetrical (homogeneous) esters based on these special aliphatic-aromatic alcohols.
