Abstract

It is known by the inventor that a universal synthetic lubricant additive that can greatly enhance the performance standards of existing lubricants, petroleum based or synthetic, imparts a new and desirable property not originally present in the existing oil or it reinforces a desirable property already possessed in some degree can greatly benefit the consumer. Although additives of many diverse types have been developed to meet special lubrication needs, their principal functions are relatively few in number. This universal synthetic lubricant additive (invention) with micro lubrication technology, when used as directed will reduce the oxidative or thermal degradation of the host oil, substantially reduce the deposition of harmful deposits in lubricated parts, minimize rust and corrosion, control frictional properties, reduce wear, temperature, sludge, varnishes and prevent destructive metal-to-metal contact, reduce fuel consumption and harmful emissions while improving performance through increased horsepower and torque. Further this technology lends itself to further development of a host of energy/emission reduction products from conditioners for kerosene, diesel, bunker-C heave oils to gasoline, cutting oils, penetrating lubricants, electrical dielectric coatings, oxidation inhibitors and electrical terminal coatings.

Description

Disclosure BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Over the years a host of terms has arisen to identify additives and briefly denote the intended use and limited function. Thus the trade recognizes improvements when the synthetic lubricant additive is used such as an improved anti-oxidant (oxidation inhibitor), corrosion inhibitor, extreme pressure agent, anti-foaming agent, anti-wear agency, V.I. improver, pour point depressant, improved detergency and dispersant, anti-squawk agent in automatic transmissions and anti chatter agent when added to automatic transmission. The synthetic lubricant additive has beneficial results when used as directed in gasoline and diesel engines, gear boxes, automatic transmission, limited slip differential.
steam and gas turbines, railroad and marine diesel engines, stationary piston engines, gasoline, diesel or steam, 2-cycle air-cooled and water cooled engines, hydraulic pumps and rams, cutting oils and industrial and marine reduction gear units. The synthetic lubricant additives contributes to many engineering advances, which contribute to quieter operation (reduce decibels), improved horsepower and torque, reduced wear, friction (energy consumption) heat and harmful emissions.
This invention relates to the use of a universal synthetic lubricant additive (invention) that can be added at various ratios to enhance most forms of lubricants from the simplest of lubrication oils such as automotive, truck, marine, locomotive, automatic and standard transmissions, differentials including limited slip, power steering fluid, hydraulic fluids, metal cutting, drilling, tapping and boring to the more advanced turbine engines such as steam, jet and gas.
Current and previous extreme pressure additives commonly used to enhance certain characteristics of the lubricant include zinc-phosphorus compounds, fatty acids, active sulfur compounds, lead, moly-disulfide, polymers, sulfur-phosphorus compound, carboxylic acid/esters, oxyphosphite compounds, polyisobutlyene, copolymers, polymethacrylate, styrene esters, chlorine concentrates and phosphorus.
The invention incorporates the use of the most advanced synthetic Alfa-Olefins, Hydrolsomerized base oils and the new synthetic: Sulfonates and liquefied Polytetrafluoroethylene components and when combined in a specific sequence forms a finished product that exceeds any product on the market today. Each component is required to be blended in a specific sequence to maintain stability and its effectiveness as a multi-purpose synthetic lubricant additive. The results of the accurate blending procedure and temperature control allows for the finished product to effectively blend with synthetic., chemical, vegetable and solvent extracted mineral based lubricants.
As previously indicated, the blend of components when blended in a very specific sequence under specific conditions, will result in one of the finest forms of synthetic lubricant additive that can be effectively used with any form of lubricating products while not limited to just liquids but can be used in semi-liquids, pastes and solids to substantially enhance lubrication, reducing energy consumption, wear on moving or sliding components while substantially reducing both heat and wear in both boundary and hydrodynamic lubrication situations. The blending is via a combination of accurately controlled sheering and homogenization of the components resulting in a long-term stable blend. Once blended in a specific sequence, simple purification or physical separation, such as distillation or freezing, does not constitute synthesis.
The finished product is a combination of:
~ ,Alfa-Olefins ~ Hydrolsomerized High VI HT Base Stock ~ Synthetic Sulfonates ~ Vacuum Distilled Non-Aromatic solvents (-0.5% Aromatic) ~ Liquefied Polytetrafluoroethylene, (PTFE) Synthetic. lubricants have been successfully used for some time as a jet engine lubricant, lubricants for extreme cold (arctic) conditions in a limited number of motor oils and fire resistant hydraulic fluids. Despite their higher cost, they do offer advantages over distilled mineral based petroleum lubricants to the consumer such as; reduced oil consumption, extended oil life, improved cold weather starting and some reduction in fuel consumption. Vegetable based synthetic lubricants such as corn; castor bean and jahba bean oil were used primarily as machine oils with very limited lubricity advantages. Most synthetic oils on the market today lack in ability to resist meta-to-metal wear under extreme pressure situations and allow metal-to-metal contact or galling under such conditions.
Component Structure It is important to maintain a blend of components that fall within the following percentages:
Alfa-Olefins: 20-60 Volume Percent. Preferable Volume Approximately 55 Percent.
Hydrolsomerized High VI HT' Base Oil (32); 20-55 Volume Percent. Preferable Volume Approximately 21 Percent.
Synthetic Sulfonates 6477-C: 300TBN; .5-10 Volume Percent. Preferred Volume Approximately 2 Percent Vacuum Distilled Non-Aromatic Solvent (-0.5% Aromatic) 10-40 Volume Percent.
Preferred Volume Approximately 21.55 Percent.
Liquefied Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE): .001-10% Volume Percent. Preferable Volume Approximately .45 Percent. Liquefied PTFE must be used to avoid agglomeration.
Sequence of Blending Components It is necessary to blend the components in a specific manner to ensure optimum shelf life, freedom of separation and the most optimum advantage in the application of the product as an extreme pressure lubricant additive. The flow of product must blend for a minimum of six (6) hours through a series of homogenizers and sheering pumps. The flow of the various components will follow a sequence which allows the process whereas the chemical conversion or transformation of one very complex mixture of the molecular structure to another complex mixture of molecules.
The blending process allows this complex change to take place. It is recommended that the mixture should process at a minimum of approximately 140 degrees Fahrenheit or 60 degrees Celsius yet should not exceed 170 degrees Fahrenheit or 77 degrees Celsius while in the processing tanks. The time and temperature sequence ensure that the molecular change takes place systematically without adverse modification of the viscosity or color. T'he minimum temperature grid will ensure maximum expansion of the molecules prior to sheering of the blend of components. During this process, solvent must be injected into the blend to eliminate air entrapment.
Blending Equipment The (process) sequence involves a series of blending and holding tanks where the product can be pumped through control valves to maintain consistent flow and pressure. The components will be initially blended via a high frequency homogenization prior to processing at the sheering pumps. The effect of the sheering will not take place until the temperature meets or exceed the prescribed minimum temperature. Electrical banding of the tanks with temperature-controlled thermostats can be used to speed the procedure providing the mixture is under constant movement and strict monitor of the liquid is maintained. Size or volume of the tanks is not an important factor in the blending process.
Universal Use of Invention In the many tests conducted, the product shows compatibility with conventional motor oils, gear oils, hydraulic fluids, (not brake fluids) along with the various blends of synthetic lubricants. Tests were conducted to establish stability of the additive when blended with various host lubricants, to analysis oxidation, viscosity change, resistance to extreme pressure and effect on power and torque output.
The invention performed admirably and impressed all the technical folks involved in the many test completed.
The invention has proven to have far reaching value as the additive can be used as a base component to develop a host of valued effective products such as fuel conditioners, gasoline, diesel, kerosene, bunker-c along with soluble and non-soluble cutting oils, form oil for concrete application, corrosion inhibitors on electric terminals while at the same time reducing electrical resistance, at electrical terminal yet providing over 34 KV of dielectric strength.
The invention has been tested on a variety of metal skins including jet turbine blades and fiberglass gel coatings to demonstrate a successful reduction of both oxidation and wind and water resistance.
Research has further shown that the overlying possibilities for use of this product, is far reaching and will have enormous benefits for consumers world-wide from reducing harmful emissions to overall reduced energy consumption.
Testing Procedures ASTM D testing of the product through the use of the Block-on-Ring Tester and the Seta Shell Four Ball Test machine can demonstrate the product for its effect as an extreme pressure additive. Each of these test machines incorporate a rotating steel surface applied against a fixed steel surface while submerged in a bath of lubricant. Pressure is applied and noted as KGF
(kilogram force) applied to the mating surface while the rotate is set for a fixed RPM (revolution per minutes).
Further numerous qualified engine tests were completed including small engines, 2-cycle, steam turbines, jet turbines, gasoline and the CRC L-38. Once again these test have demonstrated the ability of the lubricant to perform on a universal application. Further to demonstrate the protective coating left on the treated metal. Test four cylinder engines have been stripped of valve covers, oil pans, oil-pumps/filters and with only the molecular thin film of product on the moving component and distributor parts have successfully run without either oil or water coolant both on the bench stand and while completely submerged under water. These test have been run repeatedly and recorded before of professional engineers. The engines have been recorded to run in excess of 25 minutes while completely submerged under water. The motors were later stripped and the components reviewed and re-weighed with little sign of wear. Further tests were conducted and recorded with a selection of test recorded below.
Test Results from Various Test Programs Test #1 Testing has been completed on a CRC L-38 Engine Stand ASTM D 5119-90 (American Standard Testing Methods) This rigorous test was conducted at the prestigious PerkinElmer Fluid Science Automotive Research Center (formerly EG&G Automotive Research) and is located at 5404 Bandera Road, San Antonio, Texas.
PerkinElmer is one of the largest independent automotive testing organizations in the world.
PerkinElmer has been providing testing to the automotive manufacturers and petrochemical industry since 1953. Their customer are world wide, and include Shell Oil, Mobil Oil, Chevron, Exxon, Castrol, Pennzoil, Petro-Canada etc., along with automotive OEM's, heavy-duty engine OEM, OEM
suppliers and fuel and lubricant companies. PerkinElmer was designated as the United States Petroleum Task force to regulate and a control the quality and acceptance of regulated additives.
PerkinElmer was contracted to test the Synthetic Lubricant Additive (invention) when combined with an off the shelf motor oil. The reference oil used in the test was rated as a licensed API (American Petroleum Institute) motor oil, having some degree in the test. The test is a grueling 40 hours of severe running conditions plus 13 hours of run up and run down time. The engine is run under full load at a maximum RPM (3150 revolutions per minute) extreme oil temperatures of 290 degrees Fahrenheit (143.3 degrees Celsius) with fuel to run abnormally rich at 4.5 lbs per hour.
The test is designed to break the oil down, prematurely wearing away the piston rod bearings while have an adverse effect on the viscosity of the engine oil. The reduced viscosity of the oil can create excessive wear and increased amount of sludge and varnish.
RESULTS OF THE TEST
The scoring is based on a reference oil test on a particular machine. The reference oil must have passed the test on one of the many test machines. As all the test engines are not equal so each engine is pre-tested for the reference comparison. The maximum allowable bearing loss is 40mg of copper for the piston rod bearing. Sludge and varnish deposits are scored best out of 10 points, with 10 being perfect or a total of 60 points for each test.
The test engine assigned was rated as the toughest engine to pass on. The reference oil scored a weight loss of 27.7-mg. of copper while the oil with the synthetic lubricant additive (invention) lost a total of 9.0 mg. The engineer overseeing the test commented that it was one of if not the best test he has seen in over 10 years of service with PerkinElmer. Further the results of viscosity, sludge and varnish were near perfect score. Out of a total of 60 possible points, the test with the synthetic lubricant additive (invention) scored 58.30 and 58.80 respectively in varnish and sludge.
Test #2 Oil Analysis Sample oil was drawn from the running engine every 10 hours and analyzed to compare the used oil with the oil prior to running.
