Best Answer

"Synthetic motor oil" is made from petrochemicals (petroleum distillates) that are altered to provide superior lubrication or endurance as compared to standard mineral oils.

"Synthetic fuels" are created from fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) or from biomass, using complex chemical reactions to create various molecular configurations. The earliest synfuels included methanol, and liquids made using coal gas and hydrogen.

No, crude oil is not the raw material for synthetic fibers. Synthetic fibers are typically made from petrochemicals derived from crude oil, but the crude oil itself is not directly used in the production of synthetic fibers. The petrochemicals extracted from crude oil are processed to create polymers, which are then spun into fibers to make synthetic materials.
