Abstract:
Trichlorofluoromethane refrigeration systems use mineral oil to lubricate the compressor. We have found that the use of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane and mineral oil results in the formation of 1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane; in the absence of mineral oil, the use of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane does not result in the formation of 1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane. We have found an additive which substantially reduces the formation of 1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane. Thus, the present invention provides a composition comprising: (a) 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane; (b) hydrogen-contributing lubricant; and (c) a composition comprising: (i) at least one phenol and (ii) at least one aromatic or fluorinated alkyl epoxide wherein the composition (c) substantially reduces the decomposition of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane.

Abstract:
This invention relates to N-alkylated anthranilic acid derivative and their use in lubricants, such as engine oils, as TBN boosters. 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:
The present invention is directed to a method for improving one or more of the control of deposit formation and friction in an engine lubricated using a lubricating oil comprising a base oil and additives by employing as the additive the necessary combination of a borated hydroxyl saturated hydrocarbyl ester amide-amine mixture, zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate, and metal salicylate detergent, the deposit formation and friction being improved as compared to a lubricating oil containing the borated hydroxyl saturated hydrocarbyl ester amide-amine mixture, zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate and a detergent other than metal salicylate, such as metal phosphate and/or metal sulfonate.

Abstract:
A composition comprises a sulphur free reaction product of: (a)(i) a hydrocarbyl substituted aromatic compound containing an acidic group selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic group, a hydroxyl group and mixtures thereof; and (a)(ii) an organic nitrogen-containing base reacted with the acidic group. The composition is obtained by a preparatory process and is useful in a method for lubricating an internal combustion engine to include where the lubricant has reduced levels of sulphur, phosphorus and sulphated ash.
Abstract:
The subject of the invention is the method of the antifriction agent manufacture and the antifriction agent itself. The method of the antifriction agent manufacture is based on, that to the necessary quantity of particles of colloidal dispersion of copper or vanadium or chromium or cobalt or nickel or their oxides or their combinations a liquid medium, at the best low viscosity oil, and a surface active agent, at the best oleic acid, and a liquid medium, at the best aminobenzoic acid, are added and mixed thoroughly, keeping to proper proportions. The antifriction agent contains 1x10-2 to 2.2x10-4 atoms or ions of the pure metal, 0.5x10-2 to 1.1x10-4 of surface active agent (at the best oelic acid) and advantageously 2.75x10-6 to 2.5x10-4 of aminobenzoic acid.
Abstract:
A functional fluid comprising a novel base stock composition comprising between about 50 % and about 70 % by weight of a trialkyl phosphate in which the alkyl substituents are C3 to C8 and are bonded to the phosphate moiety via a primary carbon atom, between about 18 % and about 35 % by weight of a dialkyl aryl phosphate in which the alkyl substituents are C3 to C8 and are bonded to the phosphate moiety via a primary carbon atom, and from 0 to about 5 % by weight of an alkyl diaryl phosphate. Preferably, the alkyl substituents are isobutyl or isopentyl. The fluid further comprises an acid scavenger, an anti-erosion additive, a viscosity index improver, and an antioxidant. A novel additive combination comprises a high molecular weight butyl/hexyl methacrylate viscosity index improver, a perfluoroalkylsulfonate anti-erosion additive, a 3,4-epoxycyclohexane carboxylate or a diepoxide acid scavenger, a di(alkylphenyl)amine, and a phenolic antioxidant comprising a mixture of a 2,4,6-trialkylphenol and a hindered polyphenol composition selected from the group consisting of bis(3,5-dialkyl-4-hydroxyaryl)methane, 1,3,5-trimethyl-2,4,6-tris(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyaryl)benzene and mixtures thereof. Preferably, the composition further comprises a 4,5-dihydroimidazole derivative to enhance the stability of the fluid.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a lubricant composition for two-cycle engines comprising: a major amount of at least one oil of lubricating viscosity which is free of oils having a viscosity greater than or equal to 100 cSt at 40 DEG C, an amount sufficient to reduce or prevent piston scuffing of a mixture of (A) at least one phenol selected from (A-1) an aminophenol and (A-2) a reaction product of a nitrophenol and an amino compound, and (B) at least one ashless dispersant. The compositions may also include up to about 10 % by weight of (C) at least one polyalkene having a number average molecular weight from about 500 to about 2500. Since lubricant compositions for two-cycle engines are often mixed with fuels before or during combustion, Applicants' invention also includes fuel-lubricant mixtures. Applicants have discovered that the above compositions of the present invention act to control piston scuffing while also contributing to piston lubrication, deposit control, ring stick protection, reduced exhaust port blockage and reduced visible smoke emission. In another embodiment of the invention, the lubricant compositions are free of isostearic acid, or derivatives thereof.
