Viscosity index improver and lubricating oil composition
The present invention aims to provide a viscosity index improver excellent in shear stability and having a low HTHS viscosity and a high viscosity index. The viscosity index improver of the present invention contains a (co)polymer (A) containing a polyolefin-based monomer as an essential monomer unit, and a base oil, wherein the absolute value of difference in solubility parameter between the (co)polymer (A) and the base oil is 0.8 to 2.0 (cal/cm3)1/2.
