An insider perspective! I recieved this article from an associate of mine at Petro-Canada, although the discussion is primarily concerned with an industrial application, it does speak to some important issues. Actually all of the issues exist to some degree in our engines along with the bi- products of combustion to boot. Thought you might enjoy it.
Cheers!

While mineral base oils and polyalphaolefins (PAO) have good hydrolytic stability, several types of synthetics are prone to reacting with water, which forms corrosive acids.
