Abstract:
A lubricated surface, a method for reducing wear between moving parts, and lubricants, and lubricant additive concentrates containing a wear reducing agent. The lubricated surface contains a base oil of lubricating viscosity, a hydrocarbon soluble titanium compound, a metal-free friction modifier and an amount of at least one hydrocarbon soluble magnesium compound effective to provide a reduction in surface wear greater than a reduction surface wear for a lubricant composition devoid of the titanium compound, metal-free friction modifier, and magnesium compound. The lubricant composition contains no more than about 800 ppm phosphorus and is devoid of calcium detergents and organic molybdenum compound.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition comprising a phosphorus-containing compound and a base oil comprising less than about 3% by weight of tetracycloparaffins is disclosed. Methods of making and using the lubricant composition are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition comprising a detergent and a base oil comprising more than about 1.6% by weight of tetracycloparaffins is disclosed. Methods of making and using the composition are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A method for reducing friction coefficients and wear between lubricated surfaces. The method includes providing an amount of an oil-soluble nanospherical component derived from a photo-crosslinkable poly(2-cinnamoyloxyalkyl acrylate) core and a diblock acrylate copolymer corona in a fully formulated lubricant composition containing a base oil of lubricating viscosity. The nanospherical component has a core diameter ranging from about 10 to about 100 nanometers. The lubricant composition containing the nanospherical component is applied to a surface to be lubricated.
Abstract:
Lubricant compositions having improved anticorrosion performance comprising an extreme pressure compound comprising a sulfur-containing compound, an antiwear compound comprising a phosphorous-containing compound, an alkylene amine friction modifying compound, a dispersant compound containing basic nitrogen, and a diluent or base oil as applicable, wherein any of compounds other than the diluent or base oil can be the same or different compounds. These lubricant compositions provide improved anticorrosion resistance and fatigue performance, which prolongs service lives of lubricated parts, especially those used in outdoor applications.
Abstract:
The lubricant compositions of the present disclosure comprises a base oil and an additive composition comprising, for example, a detergent and an additive chosen from a phosphorus-containing compound, a friction modifier, and a dispersant, wherein the additive composition exhibits at least one of reduced thin-film friction and increased fuel efficiency as compared to an additive composition that is devoid of the detergent and the additive. As a further example, the additive composition can comprise a friction modifier and a dispersant, wherein the additive composition exhibits at least one of reduced thin-film friction and increased fuel efficiency as compared to an additive composition that is devoid of the friction modifier and the dispersant. Methods of using the additive and lubricant compositions are also disclosed.
