摘要:
The thermal and oxidative stability of HVI-PAO olefin oligomers is improved by reaction of the oligomerization mixture containing the olefin oligomer, dimer and isomerized but unoligomerized olefin with an aromatic compound such as toluene, xylene or naphthalene. The reaction is carried out in the presence of an acidic catalyst, which may be heterogeneous solid catalyst such as an acidic clay or a crystalline zeolite such as MCM-22, a homogeneous Friedel-Crafts catalyst such as AlCl.sub.3, BF.sub.3 or their complexes or a supported catalyst such as AlCl.sub.3 on graphite or silica. The reaction improves the yield and thermal stability of the lube range products. The olefinic oligomer mixture which is reacted with the aromatic compound is prepared from 1-alkene oligomerization in contact with a reduced metal oxide, preferably reduced chromium oxide, catalyst on support such as silica.
摘要:
Alkylaromatic lubricant products are produced by the reaction of a long chain alkyne such as octyne, decyne or dodecyne over a reduced Group VIB metal oxide catalyst, preferably reduced chromium on silica. The products, which are predominantly n-alkyl substituted, possess excellent thermal and oxidative stability and may be used as lubricant base stocks and viscosity improvers.

A lubricating base oil is disclosed comprising a mixture of gas-to-liquids (GTL) base stock/base oil, hydrodewaxed or hydroisomerized/catalytic (and/or solvent) dewaxed wax derived base stock/base oil and from about 1 to 95% by weight of an alkylated naphthalene or alkylated benzene synthetic oil having a pour point of 0° C. or less. The pour point of the base oil is dramatically lowered by the addition of the synthetic oil.

摘要:
A catalytic process for the dimerization of norbornene and/or norbornadiene using a reduced valence state Group VIB metal oxide as the catalyst, preferably Cr(II) on a porous support such as silica. The product norbornene dimer or norbornadiene dimer is obtained in high yield and high stereospecificity at greater than 90 weight percent of the exo-trans-exo stereoisomer. The norbornene dimer is useful as a high energy density fuel. The norbornadiene dimer can be further functionalized to yield novel chemical intermediates or polymerized or copolymerized with other olefins. The norbornadiene dimer can also be hydrogenated for high energy fuel applications.

摘要:
A process is disclosed to produce liquid oligomers of olefins, such as l-decene, with controlled molecular weight and with branch ratios below 0.19 and having higher viscosity indices than oligomers with higher branch ratios. These oligomers with low branch ratios and controlled molecular weight can be used as basestocks for many lubricants or greases with an improved viscosity-temperature relationship, oxidative stability, volatility, etc. They can also be used to improve viscosities and viscosity indices of lower quality oils. The olefins can, for example, be oligomerized in the presence of hydrogen over a supported and reduced metal oxide catalyst from Group VIB of the Periodic Table to give oligomers of controlled viscosity suitable for lubricant application. More particularly, the instant invention is directed to a process for the oligomerization of olefinic hydrocarbons containing 6 to 20 carbon atoms which comprises oligomerizing said hydrocarbon in the presence of hydrogen under oligomerization conditions, wherein the reaction product consists essentially of substantially non-isomerized olefins. For example, alpha olefins such as l-decene, and wherein a major proportion of the double bonds of the olefins or olefinic hydrocarbons are not isomerized, in the presence of a suitable catalyst, e.g., a supported and reduced metal oxide catalyst from Group VIB of the Periodic Table.
