COMPOUNDS CONTAINING AMIDE LINKAGES FROM MONO- AND
POLYCARBOXYLIC ACIDS IN THE SAME MOLECULE AND LUBRICANTS
AND FUELS CONTAINING SAME
The invention relates to dispersant additives and to fuel and lubricant compositions containing them. In particular, it relates to certain amides made from polyamines, monocarboxylic acid and polycarboxylic acid.
It is known that in the normal use of organic industrial fluids, such as lubricating oils, transmission fluids, bearing lubricants, powzr transmitting fluids and the like, oxidizing conditions are encountered wnich may result in the formation of sludge, lacquers, corrosive acids and the like~ These products are undesirable in that they produce oxidation residues or heavy contaminants which may cause normal breakdown of the fluid, leading eventually to severe damage to the parts of the equipment being lubricated.
In the lubrication of modern engines, oil compositions must be able to prevent acids, sludge and other solid contaminants from remaining near the moving metal parts. Poor piston travel and excessive eng;ne bearing corrosion may result unless the oil can prevent sludge and oxidation products from depositing in the engine. Bearing corrosion is another serious problem in gasoline engines which operate at an oil temperature of about 149C (300F) or higher.
The most desirable way of decreasing the effect of these problems is to add to the base organic fluid a detergent or dispersant additive capable of dispersing the solid particles to prevent them from interfering with the normal operation of the equlpment, thereby leaving the metal surfaces relatively clean.
Today, with modern equipment operating under increasingly strenuous F-32~9 --2--conditions, it is desirable to develop new detergents which have improved dispersant properties, which are soluble in the fluid medium to which they are added, and which are themselves stable therein.
U.S. Patent 3,714,045 discloses lubricant compositions containing lubricants and a polyimide produced by reacting (1) a heteropolymer produced by reacting an olefin with maleic anhydride in the presence of a free-radical initiator with (2) a primary arylamine.
uOs. Patent 3,936,480 discloses the reaction of a polyalkylenesuccinic acid anhydride with diphenylolpropane of the formula ( ~ ) 2 and tetraethylenepentamine, pyridine or triethylenetetramine. It should be noted, however, that in all cases wherein diphenylolpropane is reacted, a catalyst is used. This is an absolute necessity when a phenolic OH is present, because there will be no reaction with the anhydride without it.
U.S. Patent 3,868,330 discloses a lubrlcant or fuel composition containing an additive amount of at least one oil-soluble high molecular weight compound made by chlorinating (1) a mixture of a C5U monocarboxylic acid and a low molecular weight polycarboxylic acid, e.g., succinic acid;

The additive compositions of the present invention impart valuable properties, as hereinbefore indicated, to liquid hydrocarbon combustion fuels, including the distillate fuels, i.e., gasolines and fuel oils. The fuel oils that may be improved in accordance with the present invention are hydrocarbon fractions having an initial boiling point of at least about 38C (100f) and an end-boiling point no higher than about 399 (750F), and boiling substantially continuously throughout their distillation range.
Such fuel oils are generally known as distillate fuel oils. It is to be understood, however, that this term is not restricted to straight run distillate Fractions. The distillate fuel oils can be straight run distillate fuel oils, catalytically or thermally cracked (including hydrocracked) distillate fuel oils, or mixtures of straight run distillate fuel oils, naphthas and the like, with cracked distillate stocks. Moreover, such fuel oils can be treated in accordance with well-known commercial methods, such as, acid or caustic treatment, hydrogenation, solvent refining, clay treatment etc.
The distillate fuel oils are characterized by their relatively low viscosities, pour points, and the like. The principal property which characterizes the contemplated hydrocarbons, however, is the distillation range. As mentioned hereinbefore, this range will lie between about 38C (100F) and about 399C (750F). Obviously, the distillation range of each individual fuel oil will cover a narrower boiling range falling, nevertheless, within the above-specified limits. Likewise, each fuel oil will ooil substantially continuously throughout its distillation range.
Contemplated among the fuel oils are Nos. 1, 2 and 3 fuel oils used for heating and as diesel fuel oils, and the jet combustion fuels. The domestic fuel oils generally conform to the specifications as set forth in A.S.T.M. Specifications D396-48T.
Specifications for diesel fuels are defined in A.S.T.M.
Specification D975-48T. Typical jet fuels are defined in Military Speci~ication MIL-F-5624B.
LF~ 8 The gasolines that are improved by the additive compositions for this invention are mixtures of hydrocarbons having an initial boiling point falling between about 24C (75F) and about 57C (135F) and an end-boiling point falling between about 121C
(25ûF) and about 232C (450F). As is well known in the art, motor gasoline can be straight run gasoline or, as is more usual, it can be a blend of two or more cuts of materials including straight run stock, catalytic or thermal refo~nate, cracked stock, alkylated natural gasoline, and aromatic hydrocarbons. The concentration of additive in the fuel will range from about 0.00001% to about 0.1~ by weight of the composition.
The additive is effective in lubricant compositions for the purposes disclosed in ranges from about û.1% to about lû.0% by weight of the total lubricant composition. Preferred is from about 1.0% to 5.0~. In general, the additives of this invention may also be used in combination with other additive systems in conventional amounts for their known purpose. The use of additive concentrations of borated alcohols in premium quality automotive and industrial lubricants further improves upon such fluids' Fuel economy characteristics. The non-metallic compositions described herein are useful at said moderate concentrations and do not contain any potentially undesirable phosphorus, corrosive sulfur or metallic salts.
The lubricants contemplated for use herein include both mineral oil and synthetic hydrocarbon or hydrocarboxy oils of lubricating viscosity, mixtures of mineral oils and such synthetic oils, and greases prepared therefrom. The synthetic hydrocarbon oils include long chain alkanes such as cetanes, and olefin polymers such as trimers and tetramers of octene and decene. Such synthetic hydrocarbon oils can be mixed with other synthetic oils, incloding (1) ester oils such as pentaerythritol esters of monocarboxylic acids having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, (2) polyglycol ethers, and (3) polyacetals. Especially useful among the synthetic esters are those made from polycarboxylic acids and monohydric alcohols. More ~d ~
preferred are the ester fluids made from pentaerythritol, and an alipnatic monocarboxylic acid containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or mixtures of such acids.
The following example is offered as a specific illustration of the invention.
EXAMPLE
A mixture of 1~99 (1.0 mole) of tetraethylenepentamine and 712.5g (2.5 moles) of tall oil fatty acids was heated to about 175C
and was stirred over a three hour period, evolving 45.0 g (2.5 moles) of water. A typical tall oil fatty acid contains about 45-50% oleic acid, 45-50% linoleic acid and 1-6% rosin acids.
Subsequently, 106 grams (0.25 mole) of mixed C18 to C2~
alkenylsuccinic anhydride derived from ethylene polymerization were added and the mixture was stirred for one hour at 175C under reduced pressure to aid in the removal of water. The final product was obtained by filtration.
The deposit-forming tendencies of a fuel were determined in an 8-hour engine test. This accelerated test, when run on fuels that contain no detergents, produces an amount of deposit equivalent to the amount observed in 4,000 miles of operation in field tests on taxicab fleets. In accomplishing the test1 a Ford 4.9 liter (300 C.I.D.) engine was equipped with notched rings to increase the amount of blowby and with a glass throttle body section. The engine was operated for 8 hours, using the fuel under test, at alternate idling and running cycles. In the idle cycle the engine was run for 5 minutes at idling speed of 400 rpm with no load. Then for 1 minute the engine was run at a speed of 2,500 rpm under a load of 30 BPH and a manifold pressure of 31.7 kPa (9.4 in. of mercury).
During the running cycle the blowby and part of the exhaust were releàsed into the carburetor air intake during the idling cycle.
After 8 hours of operation at alternate run and idle, the carburetor was examined and rated for amount of deposit in the throttle throat. The fuel used was a gasoline comprising 40% catalytically cracked component, 40% catalytically reformed component and 20%
alkylate, the overall mixture having a boiling range of about 35-210C. The results are shown in the following table.
