Abstract:
The novel polymers of the present invention are prepared by graft polymerization of at least one aromatic nitrogen-containing monomer onto a low T.sub.g amino-substituted polymer (e.g., an ethylene alpha-olefin interpolymer substituted by primary amino or secondary amino groups). Preferred aromatic nitrogen-containing moieties are illustrated by aniline, and preferred low T.sub.g amino-substituted interpolymers comprise amino-substituted ethylene propylene norbornene elastomeric terpolymers. The polymers of this invention are useful in electrical, textile and other applications.

Abstract:
An additive for improving the dispersibility of a particulate substance in an organic medium, a thermoplastic polymer, or a thermosetting resin, is at least one compound having a ##STR1## bond in the molecule, including, for example, compounds having an oxazolinium ion in the molecule. The preferred additive compounds are oligomeric or polymeric.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a lubricant composition containing a minor amount of a thermally stable moldified selectively hydrogenated alkenyl arene/conjugated diene copolymer wherein an amide functional group is grafted to the block copolymer primarily in the alkenyl arene blocks thereof.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a polyalkyl (meth) acrylate for improving lubricating oil properties, which comprises repetition units which are derived from (meth) acrylates having 6 to 22 carbon atoms in the alcohol residues, and repetition units which are derived from amine derivatives of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer. The invention further relates to methods for producing and using the present polyalkyl (meth) acrylate.
Abstract:
The invention provides a grease composition for a hub unit bearing employing an angular contact ball bearing, containing (a) as a thickener a mixture of diurea compounds represented by formula (I): R1—NHCONH—R2—NHCONH—R1, formula (II): R1—NHCONH—R2—NHCONH—R3, and formula (III): R3—NHCONH—R2—NHCONH—R3 wherein R1 is cyclohexyl group, R2 is a divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 15 carbon atoms, R3 is a straight-chain or branched alkyl group having 12 to 20 carbon atoms, and (R1/(R1+R3))×100=85 to 95 mol %; (b) a base oil; (c) a molybdenum dialkyldithiocarbamate; and (d) a calcium sulfonate. The grease composition of the invention, when used in the hub unit bearing, shows minimum leakage, excellent anti-flaking properties and satisfactory bearing lubrication life.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition, additive concentrate, and method for lubricating an engine. The crankcase lubricant has less than 30 weight percent of a relatively low Noack volatility base oil and a viscosity additive. The viscosity additive has a minor effective amount of sacrificial polymeric viscosity index improver having a shear stability index (SSI) of greater than about 45 and a major amount of a viscosity index improver having an SSI of less than about 26. The minor amount of sacrificial viscosity index improver additive is effective to provide a lubricant composition having a ratio of absolute viscosity increase at 40° C. to an absolute viscosity increase at 40° C. of an RL 216 reference oil of less than about 0.8.
Abstract:
The disclosed invention relates to a composition comprising a grafted polymer. The polymer comprises a backbone with at least one olefin block and at least one vinyl aromatic block. The polymer is grafted with a pendant carbonyl containing group, the grafting being conducted by halogenating the vinyl aromatic carbon of the vinyl aromatic block and then grafting a carboxylic acid or derivative thereof on the halogenated vinyl aromatic carbon in the presence of an activating agent. The carbonyl containing-group is optionally substituted to provide ester, imide and/or amide functionality. The grafted polymer is useful as a dispersant viscosity modifier in lubricating compositions such as engine oils.
