Oil is like a chain. The chains in oil can be long or short. Regular oil has a mix of these long and short chains.

Over time, the longer chains break down and the pieces that break off makes the oil become less slippery.

Synthetic oil has all the same length of chains. These chains are less likely to break apart.
