Description

Synthetische Ester, sogenannte Esteröle, haben in den letzten Jahren als hockwertige Schmieröle eine immer größer werdende Anwendung gefunden. So wurden zum Beispiel Diester von zwei­basischen Carbonsäuren mit einwertigen Alkoholen, zum Beispiel Dioctylsebacat, oder auch Ester von Polyolen mit einbasischen Säuren wie Trimethylolpropantripelargonat als Schmiermittel für Flugzeugturbinen vorgeschlagen. Als Polyole werden dabei z.B. verwendet Trimethylolpropan, Neopentylglykol und/oder Penta­erythrit.Synthetic esters, so-called ester oils, have found increasing use as high-quality lubricating oils in recent years. For example, diesters of dibasic carboxylic acids with monohydric alcohols, for example dioctyl sebacate, or also esters of polyols with monobasic acids such as trimethylolpropane tripelargonate have been proposed as lubricants for aircraft turbines. As polyols, e.g. uses trimethylolpropane, neopentyl glycol and / or pentaerythritol.

Die gute Eignung der synthetischen Ester als Schmiermittel ergibt sich daraus, daß sie gegenüber herkömmlichen Schmierölen auf Mineralölbasis ein günstigeres Viskositätstemperaturverhalten aufweisen und daß bei Einstellung vergleichbarer Viskositäten die Stockpunkte deutlich niedriger liegen.The good suitability of the synthetic esters as lubricants results from the fact that they have a more favorable viscosity-temperature behavior than conventional lubricating oils based on mineral oil and that the setting points are significantly lower when comparable viscosities are set.

Es besteht gleichwohl weiterhin ausgesprochenes Interesse an neuen synthetischen Esterkomponenten, die einen tiefliegenden Stockpunkt mit hoher Viskosität, einem guten Viskositätstempera­turverhalten, hoher Temperaturbeständigkeit, hohem Flammpunkt sowie bei hohen Temperaturen möglichst geringen Verdampfungs­verlusten verbinden.Nevertheless, there is still great interest in new synthetic ester components that combine a low pour point with high viscosity, good viscosity temperature behavior, high temperature resistance, high flash point and low evaporation losses at high temperatures.

verestert ist und dabei gewünschtenfalls zusätzlich beschränkte Mengen an mehrfunktionellen Carbonsäuren der nachfolgenden Klassen C, D und/oder E in das Polyolestermolekül einkondensiert, enthält.Accordingly, the invention relates in a first embodiment to synthetic polyol esters with lubricating oil properties based on essentially neutral esterification products of a polyfunctional alcohol with selected monocarboxylic acids and, if desired, polyfunctional carboxylic acids.

  • 4. 4 to 5.8 equivalents of a mixture according to II with 0.2 to 2 equivalents of fatty acids from classes C and / or D and / or E.

Im Sinne der Erfindung sind synthetische Polyolester der genannten Art mit möglichst geringen Säurezahlen bevorzugt, wobei insbesondere neutrale Ester oder solche mit einem be­schränkten Überschuß an freien Hydroxylgruppen betroffen sind.For the purposes of the invention, synthetic polyol esters of the type mentioned with the lowest possible acid numbers are preferred, neutral esters or those with a limited excess of free hydroxyl groups are particularly affected.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung werden bei der Herstellung der Ester auf 6 Äquivalente der ein­gesetzten Säuren beziehungsweise Säuregemische 6,0 bis 7,2 Äquivalente (entsprechend 1 bis 1,2 Mol) Dipentaerythrit verwendet. Bevorzugte Polyolester dieser Art zeigen Hydroxyl­zahlen im Bereich von 0 bis etwa 25. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, 6.0 to 7.2 equivalents (corresponding to 1 to 1.2 mol) of dipentaerythritol are used in the preparation of the esters per 6 equivalents of the acids or acid mixtures used. Preferred polyol esters of this type show hydroxyl numbers in the range from 0 to about 25.

Erfindungsgemäß bevorzugte Ester haben weiterhin Viskositäts­werte bei 40 °C im Bereich von 50 bis 1000 mm²/s und besitzen Stockpunkte im Bereich von etwa 0 bis -30 °C.Esters preferred according to the invention furthermore have viscosity values at 40 ° C. in the range from 50 to 1000 mm 2 / s and have pour points in the range from approximately 0 to -30 ° C.

Bei ausschließlicher Verwendung von verzweigten Fettsäuren (Säureklasse A) - insbesondere beim Einsatz von 2-Ethyl-hexan­säure, Isononansäure, Isodecansäure und/oder Isotridecansäure - erhält man Ester im Viskositätsklassenbereich (Definition nach ISO 3448 beziehungsweise DIN 51 519) ISO VG 320 bis 460.With the exclusive use of branched fatty acids (acid class A) - especially when using 2-ethyl-hexanoic acid, isononanoic acid, isodecanoic acid and / or isotridecanoic acid - esters in the viscosity class range (definition according to ISO 3448 or DIN 51 519) ISO VG 320 to 460.

Durch Mitverwendung von linearen Fettsäuren wird die Viskosität der hergestellten Polyolester erniedrigt auf den Viskositäts­klassenbereich ISO VG 46 bis ISO VG 220. Will man die Viskosität der Ester erhöhen, so ist die Mitverwendung von zwei- und mehrbasischen Säuren aus den zuvor aufgezählten Säureklassen C, D und/oder E unabdingbar.By using linear fatty acids, the viscosity of the polyol esters produced is reduced to the viscosity class range ISO VG 46 to ISO VG 220. If you want to increase the viscosity of the esters, the use of dibasic and polybasic acids from the acid classes C, D and / or E indispensable.

Aufgrund ihrer hohen termischen Stabilität, geringsten Ver­dampfungsverlusten bei 250 °C und höher sowie Flammpunkten von ca. 300 °C stellen die erfindungsgemäßen neuen Polyolester geeignete Trägeröle für temperaturbelastbare Schmieröldis­persionen und Schmierfette dar und sind darüber hinaus wegen ihrer guten tribologischen Eigenschaften - z.B. einem ausgezeichneten Druckaufnahmevermögen - auch als Zusatz­ komponenten oder im Alleineinsatz für Hydraulik- und Getriebeöle geeignet. Übliche Zusatzstoffe wie Oxidations- und Korrosionsinhibitoren, Dispergiermittel, Hochdruckzusätze Antischaummittel, Metalldesaktivatoren und andere Zusatzstoffe können in den üblichen wirksamen Mengen zugesetzt werden.Due to their high thermal stability, lowest evaporation losses at 250 ° C and higher and flash points of approx. 300 ° C, the new polyol esters according to the invention are suitable carrier oils for temperature-resistant lubricating oil dispersions and greases and are also due to their good tribological properties - for example an excellent pressure absorption capacity - also as an addition components or used alone for hydraulic and gear oils. Usual additives such as oxidation and corrosion inhibitors, dispersants, high pressure additives, anti-foaming agents, metal deactivators and other additives can be added in the usual effective amounts.

Dipentaerythrit und das gewählte Fettsäuregemisch werden in Gegenwart von 0,5 % Zinnschliff bei 240 °C 6 bis 8 Stunden lang unter Abdestillation des bei der Reaktion gebildeten Wassers verestert. Gegen Ende der Reaktion wird bei gleicher Tempera­tur, aber vermindertem Druck, weiterverestert. Nach dem Abkühlen auf 120 °C werden 1 Gewichtsprozent aktivierte Bleicherde zugesetzt, nochmals auf 200 °C erwärmt und über­schüssige Monocarbonsäure im Vakuum abdestilliert. Nach Abkühlen wird das Reaktionsgemisch filtriert.

Dipentaerythritol and the selected fatty acid mixture are esterified in the presence of 0.5% tin grinding at 240 ° C. for 6 to 8 hours while distilling off the water formed in the reaction. Towards the end of the reaction, esterification continues at the same temperature but under reduced pressure. After cooling to 120 ° C., 1 percent by weight of activated bleaching earth is added, the mixture is heated again to 200 ° C. and excess monocarboxylic acid is distilled off in vacuo. After cooling, the reaction mixture is filtered.
