Abstract:
The invention provides a lubricating composition containing a lubricating composition comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity and a quaternised polyester salt. The invention further relates to a method of lubricating a mechanical device (such as an internal combustion engine) with the lubricating composition. The invention further relates to the use of the quaternised polyester salt as a dispersant.
Abstract:
The invention provides a lubricating composition containing an oil of lubricating viscosity and a nitrile compound. The invention further relates to a method of the lubricating an internal combustion engine with the lubricating composition.
Abstract:
The invention provides a lubricating composition containing an oil of lubricating viscosity and a compound obtained/obtainable by a process comprising reacting a glycolic acid, a 2-halo-acetic acid, or a lactic acid, or an alkali or alkaline metal salts thereof, (typically glycolic acid or a 2-halo-acetic acid) with at least one member selected from the group consisting of an amine, an alcohol, and an aminoalcohol. The invention further relates to the use of the lubricating composition in an internal combustion engine.
Abstract:
The invention provides an oil of lubricating viscosity, a dispersant and an amine-functionalised additive, wherein the amine-functionalised additive is derived from an amine having at least 3 or 4 aromatic groups. The invention further relates to the use of the lubricating composition in an internal combustion engine.
Abstract:
In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that an additive which is substantially insoluble in, has low solubility in and/or is otherwise incompatible with a functional fluid, may be supplied to the functional fluid by use of a gel composition and/or a solid additive composition containing the additive, such that the functional fluid can receive the benefit of the supplied additive and/or contain levels of the additive not otherwise achievable by conventional delivery method due to the incompatibility of the additive with the functional fluid.
Abstract:
A succinimide dispersant comprising the condensation product of a hydrocarbyl-substituted succinic anhydride or reactive equivalent thereof with an alkylene polyamine, wherein the alkylene polyamine is a condensed amine, exhibits improved viscometrics.
Abstract:
This invention relates to anthranilate esters and their use in lubricants, such as engine oils. The invention particularly relates to compositions that deliver an ash-free base to a lubricant in the form of a basic amine additive, without adversely impacting seal compatibility and/or degradation, and methods thereof.
Abstract:
