Description

Lubricant composition for automotive transmission systems with improved corrosion resistance
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of lubricant compositions, in particular for motor vehicles, more in particular for lubricating the gear devices of the transmission components of motor vehicles, in particular the transmission system of internal combustion engines or electric motors.
Background
The transmission components of motor vehicles operate under heavy loads and at high speeds. Therefore, the oils used in these transmission systems must have particularly good properties to protect the parts from wear and fatigue, in particular to protect the teeth of the gear from falling out.
After aging for a long period of time, peeling occurs, followed by visible deterioration. The mechanism is not clear, but the phenomenon starts from the initiation of cracks at a depth below the surface, which propagate, and when normal cracks occur on the surface, part of the material suddenly drops.
Preventing this phenomenon requires reducing contact stresses and friction by proper geometry of the parts to prevent sticking. The lubricant composition participates in the preventative process mainly by the physicochemical reactivity of the additives contained therein.
Typically, the additives are made from sulfur-, phosphorus-or boron-containing antiwear and extreme pressure additives that impart protective properties to the transmission oil against sloughing. Other additives contained in the lubricant composition may also have a negative or positive effect on the propagation of cracks inside the part and thus on the shedding phenomenon.
The lubricant composition used in the transmission components may begin to deteriorate throughout its useful life.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a lubricant composition for manual or automatic transmission systems, in particular for gear arrangements of conventional systems for internal combustion engines or electric motors, with good corrosion resistance, in particular for copper.
Document WO 2010/126760 describes a lubricant composition comprising a base oil and a polymer of the phosphate type comprising the condensation reaction product of an acid or phosphate with a diol whose two hydroxyl functions are separated by a chain of 4 to 100 carbon atoms.
Document WO 2016/089565 describes a lubricant composition comprising a base oil and a phosphite composition comprising the condensation reaction product of an acid or phosphate with at least two diols.
Neither document relates to corrosion resistance nor specifically describes the phosphite polymers of formula (I) according to the invention.
