Oligomers can be divided into four main product groups: 

• Linear alpha olefins, which are used as co-polymers in polyethylene manufacture as well as in surfactants, lubricants and oil drilling fluids; 
• Polyalphaolefins, essential in the production of high performance synthetic lubricants, with wide ranging applications, from automobiles to wind turbines; 
• Polybutene, used in lubricants, adhesives, surface coatings, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, strength / cling film, sealants / caulks / putties, rubber & polymer modification and agriculture; and
• Specialty products, such as cyclopentane, diisobuytlene, isoamylene, isododecane, isohexadecane, methoxypentane and pethylpropadience used in a diverse array of end applications, such as cosmetics, refrigeration liquids and tyre production.
