Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a lubricant having excellent lubrication performance. Further, another object of the present invention is to produce a polyester composition having a small load on an environment and mass productivity. The present invention relates to a production method for a complex polyester composition including a step of obtaining a complex polyester composition by condensing polyhydric alcohol, polycarboxylic acid having at least two carboxyl groups and carbon atoms of greater than or equal to 5, monohydric alcohol having at least one oxyalkylene group in the absence of a solvent, in which a component having a weight average molecular weight of less than or equal to 1300 in a GPC chart of the complex polyester composition is less than or equal to 43 area%. Further, the present invention relates to a complex polyester composition, a lubricant composition, and a lubricant.
Abstract:
Fatty esters of oligoesters of a dicarboxylic acid and a polyol retaining at least one free hydroxyl group, particularly of the formula (I): R1-[OR2O-C(O)-R3-(O)C-]m-R4 (I), where R1 is H, a monocarboxylic acid group, or R6O-[C(O)-R3-(O)C]-; R2s are residues of polyols having at least one substituent free hydroxyl; R3s are hydrocarbylene; R4 is -OH, -OM where M is a salt forming metal, amine or ammonium, -OR6, or -OR2O-R7; R5 is C7 to C21 hydrocarbyl; R6 is C8 to C22 hydrocarbyl; R7 is H, or -C(O)R5; and m is 1 to 20; provided that at least one of R1 and R4 is or includes a C8 to C22 group, are surfactants. A range of surfactant properties can be obtained by varying the molecules within these ranges. Especially where R2 is derived from a higher polyol e.g. sorbitol, R3 is C2 to C6, and the fatty terminal group is C8 to C14, the products can be highly water soluble and effective oil in water emulsifiers.
Abstract:
A method is provided for protecting a copper-containing metal from loss of copper when in contact with a functional fluid composition containing water, the method comprising employing in the functional fluid an oil-soluble dimercaptothiadiazole compound or derivative thereof in an amount sufficient to protect against loss of copper.
Abstract:
A biodegradable lubricating oil composition includes (A) an ester represented by a formula (1) below, the ester having a kinematic viscosity in a range from 300 mm 2 /s to 1000 mm 2 /s at 40 degrees C and an acid value of 0.5 mgKOH/g or less; (B) an ester being obtained by reacting a straight-chain saturated aliphatic carboxylic acid with a polyhydric alcohol, the ester having an acid value of 0.5 mgKOH/g or less; and (C) a phosphate amine salt being obtained by reacting an acidic phosphate with an alkylamine.
In the formula, Ra is a hydrocarbyl group having 4 to 20 carbon atoms, Rb is a hydrocarbyl group having 4 to 18 carbon atoms, Rc is an acyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 3 to 15.
Abstract:
Proposed are lubricant compounds with a good shear stability defined by the loss of the kinematic viscosity at 100 °C, containing base oil and a synthetic complex ester, the complex ester having a kinematic viscosity at 40°C of greater than 400 and up to 50,000 mm2/s and being obtained by conversion of a) polyols and monocarbonic acids and dicarbonic acids, or of b) polyols and mono-alcohols and dicarbonic acids, or of c) polyols and mono-alcohols and monocarbonic acids and dicarbonic acids. In addition the use of the said lubricant compounds containing the complex esters as oils for vehicle transmission, axles, industrial drives, compressors, turbines or engines is proposed.
