Abstract:
The invention relates to a food-compatible high-temperature lubricant, more particularly a high-temperature oil and a high-temperature grease, comprising the following components: a) at least one oil selected from a trimellitic ester or a mixture of different trimellitic esters, alkylaromatics, preferably an aliphatically substituted naphthalene, or estolides; b) a hydrogenated or fully hydrogenated polyisobutylene or a mixture of hydrogenated or fully hydrogenated polyisobutylene; and c) additives individually or in combination. In the case of the high-temperature grease, a thickener is added.
Abstract:
Methods for making alpha olefin oligomers and polyalphaolefins include a step of contacting a C4 to C20 alpha olefin monomer and a catalyst system containing a metallocene, a first activator comprising a solid oxide chemically-treated with an electron withdrawing anion, and a second activator comprising an organoaluminum compound. The alpha olefin oligomers and polyalphaolefins prepared with these catalyst systems can have a high viscosity index combined with a low pour point, making them particularly useful in lubricant compositions and as viscosity modifiers.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides for alpha olefin oligomers and polyalphaolefins (or PAOs) and methods of making the alpha olefin oligomers and PAOs. This disclosure encompasses metallocene-based alpha olefin oligomerization catalyst systems, including those that include at least one metallocene and an activator comprising a solid oxide chemically-treated with an electron withdrawing anion. The alpha olefin oligomers and PAOs prepared with these catalyst systems can have a high viscosity index combined with a low pour point, making them particularly useful in lubricant compositions and as viscosity modifiers.
Abstract:
A lubricating oil composition for two-stroke cycle cylinder injection engines contains as essential ingredients: (A): a base oil containing (1) 10-30% by mass of polybutene with number-average molecular weight 250-350 on the basis of a total amount of the base oil, (2) 30-60% by mass of polybutene with number-average molecular weight 450-550 on the basis of the total amount of the base oil, and (3) 15-40% by mass of mineral oil and/or a synthetic oil, which is other than polybutene, with kinematic viscosity 2-35 mm.sup.2 /s at 100.degree. C., on the basis of the total amount of the base oil; and (B): 2-15 parts by mass of alkylaminophenol having an alkyl group with 8-400 carbon atoms relative to 100 parts by mass of the base oil.
Abstract:
The invention pertains to olefinically unsaturated polymers wherein at least a portion of the olefinic unsaturation has three hydrocarbyl substituents attached to the two carbons of an olefinic unsaturation (i.e., trisubstituted vinyl). The invention is an H.sub.2 C=CHR .alpha.-olefin polymer composition, wherein R is H or alkyl, with a substantial portion of the polymer unsaturation as trisubstituted.
Abstract:
The invention pertains to oil soluble copolymers derived from ethylene and 1-butene which have a number average molecular weight between about 1,500 and 7,500, at least about 30 percent of all polymer chains terminated with ethylvinylidene groups, and ethylene-derived content of not greater than about 50 weight percent, and which form solutions in mineral oil free of polymer aggregates, as determined by light scattering measurements. Lubricating oil additives, particularly dispersants, produced by the functionalization and derivatization of these copolymers have enhanced performance (e.g., improved dispersancy and pour point) in lubricating oil compositions, attributable in part to the combination of properties characterizing the copolymers.
Abstract:
Fully synthetic lubricating base oil compositions are formulated from blends of 50-97 wt % of synthetic hydrocarbons and 3-30 wt % isobutylene oligomers. The lubricating base oil composition have constant viscosity indexes which are higher than those of the components used to form the compositions. The synthetic hydrocarbon and isobutylene oligomers are combinable in various amounts with conventional additives to form multi-grade engine lubricants, which are shear stable.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition may be of use in lubrication of an internal combustion engine. A method of utilizing such a lubricant composition may include: lubricating an internal combustion engine using a lubricant composition comprising: from about 30.0 mass % to about 99.8 mass % of an oil base stock, based on a total mass of the lubricant composition, the oil base stock comprising at least one polyol ester; and from 1.0 mass % to 30.0 mass % polyisobutylene, based on a total mass of the lubricant composition; and combusting a fuel in the internal combustion engine.
