Definitions

  • One aspect of the invention is an unleaded gasoline, used in "clean,” new engines, containing a low concentration of a hydrocarbon soluble molybdenum (VI) compound comprising a major portion of gasoline and about 0.1 to about 20 parts of the molybdenum (VI) compound per one million parts of gasoline.
  • a molybdenum (VI) compound can be used in an amount which is sufficient to provide from about 0.01 to about 10 parts of molybdenum, calculated as the metal, per million parts of gasoline.
  • a further aspect of the invention is a concentrate of a hydrocarbon soluble molybdenum (VI) compound containing about 0.1 to about 50 wt% of the compound in a suitable diluent which can be dissolved in proper proportion in gasoline or lubricating oil to provide about 0.1 to about 10,000 parts of molybdenum (VI) compound per one million parts of gasoline or about 0.001 to about 5 wt% of molybdenbum (VI) compound in a lubricating oil.
  • a hydrocarbon soluble molybdenum (VI) compound containing about 0.1 to about 50 wt% of the compound in a suitable diluent which can be dissolved in proper proportion in gasoline or lubricating oil to provide about 0.1 to about 10,000 parts of molybdenum (VI) compound per one million parts of gasoline or about 0.001 to about 5 wt% of molybdenbum (VI) compound in a lubricating oil.
  • any hydrocarbon soluble molybdenum(VI) compound which is stable in hydrocarbon or petroleum storage or distribution facilities can be used in gasoline in accordance with this invention.
  • the molybdenum(VI) or compound is selected from the group consisting of molybdenum(VI) sulfonates, molybdenum(VI) diamine complexes, amine salts of molybdic acid and isopoly molybdic acid, and molybdenum(VI) compounds which are free of nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus.

Claims (10)

  1. Composition de carburant à base d'essence, comprenant une proportion majeure d'un carburant hydrocarboné liquide du domaine d'ébullition de l'essence, en combinaison avec un composé de molybdène (VI) qui est soluble dans ledit carburant hydrocarboné, dans laquelle la quantité dudit composé de molybdène (VI) est suffisante pour fournir de 0,01 à 1000 parties de molybdène par million de parties de carburant hydrocarboné, ladite composition de carburant est essentiellement exempte de métaux autres que le molybdène, et ledit composé de molybdène (VI) est choisi parmi les sulfonates de molybdène (VI), les complexes de molybdène (VI)-diamine dans lesquels le ligand diamine a pour formule R⁴R⁵N-(CR⁴R⁵)n-NR⁴R⁵, dans laquelle n est un nombre entier de 1 à 20 et chaque R⁴ et R⁵ est choisi indépendamment parmi un hydrogène et un groupe alkyle de 1 à 20 atomes de carbone, et les composé de molybdène (VI) qui sont exempts d'azote, de soufre et de phosphore.

  9. Procédé selon la revendication 8 pour abaisser un besoin en indice d'octane élevée en régime permanent dans un moteur à combustion interne à allumage par étincelle et pour maintenir le besoin en indice d'octane réduit résultant en régime permanent, qui comprend les étapes qui consistent à faire fonctionner ledit moteur avec une première composition de carburant à base d'essence jusqu'à ce que l'on obtienne un besoin en indice d'octane réduit en régime permanent et à maintenir ledit besoin en indice d'octane réduit en régime permanent en faisant fonctionner le moteur avec une seconde composition de carburant à base d'essence, dans lequel ladite première composition de carburant comprend une composition de carburant à base d'essence selon la revendication 7 et dans lequel ladite seconde composition de carburant comprend une composition de carburant à base d'essence selon la revendication 6.
  10. Procédé selon la revendication 8 pour abaisser un besoin en indice d'octane élevé en régime permanent dans un moteur à combustion interne à allumage par étincelle ayant un besoin en indice d'octane accru d'environ 2 à environ 7 unités après un fonctionnement avec de l'essence essentiellement exempte de plomb et de molybdène, qui comprend le fonctionnement dudit moteur avec une composition de carburant à base d'essence selon la revendication 7 et la quantité de ladite composition de carburant à base d'essence est efficace pour abaisser ledit besoin en indice d'octane élevé en régime permanent d'au moins environ 20%.
