Abstract:
Multiple sequential chemical reactions on a polymeric feedstock are carried out in an extruder with multiple reaction zones. Each reaction zone has means for introduction of reagents, for mixing of reagents with polymer and for removal of by/co-products or unreacted reagents.
Abstract:
A lubricating oil composition comprising a major portion of a lubricating oil and a minor amount of an additive. The additive is prepared by reacting a polyamine with an alkenyl succinic acid anhydride having a number average molecular weight of about 500 to about 10,000 at a temperature of 60.degree. C.-120.degree. C. to form mono-alkenyl succinimide, bis-alkenyl succinimide or a mixture of mono- and bis-alkenyl succinimide. 2-pyrrolidone-5-carboxylic acid is then added to form an acylated mono-alkenyl succinimide, bis-alkenyl succinimide or mixture of mono- and bis-alkenyl succinimide. The acylated mono-alkenyl succinimide, bis-alkenyl succinimide or mixture of mono- and bis-alkenyl succinimide is acylated with an acylating compound selected from the group consisting of glycolic acid, oxalic acid, lactic acid, 2-hydroxymethyl-propionic acid and 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl) propionic acid at a temperature of about 150.degree. C. to about 185.degree. C., to form a mixed acylated mono-alkenyl succinimide, bis-alkenyl succinimide or mixture of mono- and bis-alkenyl succinimide and the mixed acylated mono-alkenyl succinimide, bis-alkenyl succinimide or mixture of mono- and bis-alkenyl succinimide is recovered.
Abstract:
Alkylated citric acid derivatives obtained as a reaction product of citric acid and an alkyl alcohol or an amine have been found to be effective antiwear and friction modifying additives for fuels and lubricants.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a fuel composition comprising a hydrocarbon boiling in the gasoline or diesel range and from about 30 to about 5,000 parts per million of a fuel soluble alkylphenyl poly(oxyalkylene) aminocarbamate having at least one basic nitrogen and an average molecular weight of about 800 to 6,000 and wherein the alkyl group contains at least 40 carbon atoms. The instant invention is based on the discovery that use of the unique hydrocarbyl gorup, i.e., an alkylphenyl group wherein the alkyl group contains at least 40 carbon atoms provides for improved lubricating oil compatibility.
Abstract:
Amine-containing dispersants, such as succinimides, Mannich Bases and Viscosity-index improvers are reacted with fluorophosphoric acid. The reaction of the dispersant with the fluorophosphoric acid passivates the dispersant to fluorocarbon compositions used as seals, for example in automobile engines.
Abstract:
A lubricating oil additive comprising a stable dispersion of finely divided polytetrafluoroethylene particles having a relatively high molecular weight, a polymeric, oil-soluble dispersant containing nitrogen, an organo-clay anti-sedimentation agent and a polar activator therefor in a lubricating oil, the additives being free of polytetrafluoroethylene sedimentation, together with lubricating oils containing such additives and processes for producing the additives.
Abstract:
An oxidized Mannich condensation product of an oxidized olefin polymer, amine and formaldehyde yielding reactant and lube oils containing these products.
Abstract:
The present invention provides, among other things, a process to produce a low molecular weight dispersant polymethacrylate polymer (“LMWDPMA”), and the LMWDPMA itself, along with the use of the LMWDPMA in a lubricating composition, as well as a method for lubricating an internal combustion engine as disclosed herein.
Abstract:
The disclosed invention relates to lubricant or functional fluid compositions containing viscosity index improvers in the form of self-healing polymers. The polymers may comprise one or more cleavable linkages, such as one or more disulfide bonds and/or one or more diene/dienophile linkages, to permit the polymer to reform if cleaved during use.
