Definitions

  • This invention relates to fuel detergent additives comprising benzophenone derivatives and to liquid hydrocarbon fuels containing them, such liquid hydrocarbon fuels normally being susceptible to forming undesirable carburetor and intake valve deposits in automotive and other internal combustion engines.
  • liquid hydrocarbon fuels such as gasolines and fuel oils tend, on combustion, to form undesirable deposits on carburetor and intake valves in internal combustion engines. It is also well known that a great deal of effort has been directed to provide means to overcome such problems. The formation of such deposits tends to impair engine efficiency and often results in breakdown, necessitating cleaning operations and frequently costly replacement of engine parts. This situation is particularly critical in the use of modern liquid hydrocarbon fuels such as gasolines, jet fuels, diesel fuels and other fuels employed in the operation of advanced internal combustion engines.
  • U.S. Patent 4,194,885 describes iminodiimides of 3,3',4,4' - benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride (formed by reacting benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride with a primary alkylamine, arylamine, alkarylamine or aralkylamine having from 6 to 36 carbon atoms in a molar ratio of amine to dianhydride of 3 to 3.5:1) and lubricating and fuel oil compositions containing minor amounts of such iminodiimides as pour point depressants and ultra-violet stabilizers. That document contains no suggestion, however, that the iminodiimides may be used as fuel detergent additives in liquid hydrocarbon fuels.
  • a fuel detergent additive which comprises a reaction of
  • the invention also provides an automotive fuel composition which comprises
  • liquid hydrocarbon fuels improved in accordance with the invention comprise fuels which are normally susceptible to forming undesirable carburetor and intake valve deposits.
  • liquid hydrocarbon fuels boiling from about 24°C (75°F) to about 399°C (750°F) include gasoline, jet fuel and diesel fuel.
  • distillate fuels or “distillate fuel oils” is not intended to be restricted to straight run distillate fractions.
  • distillate fuel oils can comprise straight run distillate fuels, 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.
  • fuel oils can be treated in accordance with well known commercial methods such as acid or caustic treatment, hydrogenation, solvent refining plate treatment and the like.
  • Distillate fuels are characterized by their relatively low viscosity and pour point.
  • the principal property which characterizes these hydrocarbons however, is their distillation range, which as hereinabove indicated, will lie between about 24°C (75°F) and about 399°C (750°F).
  • the distillation range of each individual fuel will cover a narrower boiling range and each fuel will boil substantially continuously throughout its distillation range.
  • Particularly contemplated among the fuels are gasolines, leaded or unleaded; fuel oils such as Nos. 1, 2 and 3, used in heating; and jet combustion fuels.
  • the domestic fuel oils generally conform to the specifications set forth in ASTM Specification D396 ⁇ 4AT. Specifications for diesel fuels are defined in ASTM Specification D975 ⁇ 4AT.
  • Typical jet fuels are defined in Military Specification MIL-F-5 624B.
  • fuel oils of varying viscosity and pour points falling both within and outside the indicated range may also be effectively treated through the use of additives of the present invention.
  • Additives in accordance with the invention are employed in liquid hydrocarbon fuels in minor amount, i.e. from about 0.001 to about 10 weight percent, and preferably from about 0.01 to about 0.5 weight percent based on the total weight of the fuel. Any other known additive (antioxidant, dispersant, antiwear agent, etc.) generally may also be used for its known purpose up to about 5 to 10 weight percent based on the total weight of the fuel composition without adverse effect.
  • the benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride derivatives may, be prepared by reacting an ester or esters derived from the dianhydride with an appropriate amine.
  • an ester or esters derived from the dianhydride For example, a mixture of benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride and an alkanol can be reacted to form the ester which is then reacted with a suitable hydrocarbyl amine.
  • the esterification reaction is usually carried out under suitable nitrogen pressure at a temperature of from about 150°C to about 250°C, and preferably from about 180°C to about 210°C until the reaction is substantially complete, i.e., depending on specific reaction parameters up to five hours or more.
  • the alkyl group of the alkanol may contain from 1 to 72 carbon atoms.
  • the benzophenone dianhydride and alkanol are reacted in a mole ratio which may vary from about 1:4 to about 4:1, and preferably from about 1:4.
  • the product ester of the benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid may then be reacted with an amine at atmospheric pressure wherein the reaction temperature can vary from about 100°C to about 300°C, and the mole ratio of ester to amine is from about 3:1 to about 1:3 for periods of from about three to ten hours.
  • Any suitable amine may be used; for example, polyethylene amines, polypropylene amines and primary and secondary straight chain and branched chain amines.
  • a mixture of 400 grams (1.35 moles) benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 854 grams (5.4 moles) isodecanol, and 1 gram p-toluene sulfonic acid were stirred to about 200°C over a five hour period using a slow stream of nitrogen gas to aid in the removal of water.
  • the product was the tetraisodecyl ester of benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid.
  • the base fuel and the base fuel plus the additives as specified below were thereafter subjected to the following test to determine the effectiveness of fuels incorporating the additives in accordance with the invention in preventing carburetor throttle body deposits.
  • a six-cylinder, 3933 cc (240 cubic inch) truck engine with exhaust gas recirculation is operated for twenty hours on a cycle consisting of a seven-minute idle followed by a thirty-second part-throttle acceleration to 2000 rpm.
  • a controlled amount of the engine's blowby gas is metered into the intake air to induce deposit formation.
  • the ability of a fuel to prevent deposit formation is determined by weighing the removable aluminum throttle sleeve before and after the test and also by visual rating of the sleeve.
