Description

Cette invention concerne des additifs surbasés pour huiles lubrifiantes renfermant un complexe organique du molybdène pratiquement insoluble dans les hydrocarbures.This invention relates to overbased additives for lubricating oils containing an organic complex of molybdenum practically insoluble in hydrocarbons.

Les additifs surbasés sont des sels de métaux alcalins ou alcalinoterreux d'acides organiques, surbasés par carbonatation avec l'anhydride carbonique. Le terme surbasé est utilisé pour désigner l'excès de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux par rapport à la quantité stoéchiométrique nécessaire pour neutraliser l'acide organique utilisé.Overbased additives are alkali or alkaline earth metal salts of organic acids, overbased by carbonation with carbon dioxide. The term overbased is used to designate the excess of alkali or alkaline earth metal over the stoichiometric amount necessary to neutralize the organic acid used.

La structure des additifs surbasés est celle d'une dispersion colloïdale dont les micelles renferment le carbonate de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux formé lors de la carbonatation. Les micelles sont stabilisés par les sels de métaux alcalins ou alcalinoterreux d'acides organiques qui ont un effet détergent.The structure of the overbased additives is that of a colloidal dispersion, the micelles of which contain the alkali or alkaline earth metal carbonate formed during carbonation. The micelles are stabilized by the alkali or alkaline earth metal salts of organic acids which have a detergent effect.

Les sels d'acides organiques utilisés dans les additifs surbasés sont en général les sulfonates, les salicylates ou les phénates sulfurisés, décrits respectivement des les brevets US 4 604 219, EP-A 279 493 et FR 2 305 494.The salts of organic acids used in overbased additives are generally sulfonates, salicylates or sulfurized phenates, described respectively in US Patents 4,604,219, EP-A 279,493 and FR 2,305,494.

Ces additifs surbasés sont particulièrement utiles dans les lubrifiants utilisés dans les moteurs à combustion interne du type "essence" ou du type "diesel".These overbased additives are particularly useful in lubricants used in internal combustion engines of the "gasoline" type or of the "diesel" type.

Grâce à leur effet détergent et dispersant, ils évitent la formation de laques et de vernis et maintiennent en dispersion les suies issues de la combustion incomplète du carburant.Thanks to their detergent and dispersing effect, they prevent the formation of lacquers and varnishes and keep the soot from the incomplete combustion of fuel dispersed.

Une autre fonction importante de ces additifs est la neutralisation des composés acides, comme des acides organiques formés par oxydation de l'huile et les acides formés lors de la combustion des produits soufrés apportés par les combustibles.Another important function of these additives is the neutralization of acidic compounds, such as organic acids formed by oxidation of the oil and the acids formed during the combustion of the sulfur products supplied by the fuels.

Cette fonction de neutralisation est particulièrement appréciée lors de l'utilisation de combustibles riches en soufre, comme les fuels lourds utilisés dans les moteurs marins.This neutralization function is particularly appreciated when using fuels rich in sulfur, such as heavy fuels used in marine engines.

Il est connu par ailleurs, d'utiliser dans les lubrifants des additifs au molybdène comme réducteurs de frottement. Le produit le plus anciennement utilisé est le bisulfure de molybdène sous forme de dispersion stable.It is also known to use molybdenum additives in lubricants as friction reducers. The most ancient product used is molybdenum disulphide in the form of a stable dispersion.

Pour éviter les opérations de broyage et de mise en dispersion stable du bisulfure de molybdène, on a proposé l'utilisation de composés organiques oléosolubles du molybdène, qui peuvent être incorporés directement dans les lubrifiants.To avoid the operations of grinding and stable dispersion of the molybdenum disulphide, the use of oil-soluble organic compounds of molybdenum has been proposed, which can be incorporated directly into the lubricants.

Parmi les composés oléosolubles du molybdène on peut citer les dithiocarbamates (EP-A 205 165), et les complexes du molybdène avec l'oxazoline (US 4 176 073). Les complexes du molybdène avec les composés renfermant un azote basique issu de succinimides, amides, phosphonamides ou bases de Mannich sont utilisés sous forme sulfurisées (US 4 263 152, US 4 369 119, US 4 395 343).Among the oil-soluble compounds of molybdenum there may be mentioned the dithiocarbamates (EP-A 205 165), and the complexes of molybdenum with oxazoline (US 4,176,073). Molybdenum complexes with compounds containing basic nitrogen from succinimides, amides, phosphonamides or Mannich bases are used in the sulfurized form (US 4,263,152, US 4,369,119, US 4,395,343).

On connait également des additifs surbasés au molybdène. Le molybdène est incorporé sous forme d'un composé minéral, pendant (US 4 601 837) ou après (US 3 496 105) le surbasage.There are also known additives overbased with molybdenum. The molybdenum is incorporated in the form of an inorganic compound, during (US 4,601,837) or after (US 3,496,105) overbasing.

Nous avons trouvé maintenant de façon inattendue qu'il était possible d'incorporer dans les additifs surbasés des dérivés du molybdène pratiquement insolubles dans les hydrocarbures, car ces dérivés se solubilisent pendant la réaction de surbasage.We have now unexpectedly found that it is possible to incorporate into overbased additives derivatives of molybdenum practically insoluble in hydrocarbons, since these derivatives dissolve during the overbasing reaction.

Nous ne voulons pas être limités par cette explication main nous suggérons que le dérivé du molybdène est incorporé dans les micelles de la dispersion colloïdale avec le carbonate de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux.We do not want to be limited by this explanation but we suggest that the molybdenum derivative is incorporated into the micelles of the colloidal dispersion with the alkali or alkaline earth metal carbonate.

L'incorporation du dérivé du molybdène dans la micelle résulte dans la formation d'un additif unique multifonctionnel, ayant les propriétés des additifs surbasés et ceux des dérivés du molybdène. L'avantage de cet additif multifonctionnel par rapport aux mélanges de détergents surbasés et de dérivés oléosolubles du molybdène, réside dans leur plus grande stabilité et le fait qu'il n'y a pas de compétition entre les deux additifs pour l'accès à la surface métallique à lubrifier.The incorporation of the molybdenum derivative into the micelle results in the formation of a single multifunctional additive, having the properties of overbased additives and those of molybdenum derivatives. The advantage of this multifunctional additive compared to mixtures of overbased detergents and oil-soluble derivatives of molybdenum, lies in their greater stability and the fact that there is no competition between the two additives for access to the metal surface to be lubricated.

Les additifs selon l'invention présentent des propriétés antiusure, réductrice de friction et antioxydante dans les formulations lubrifiantes.The additives according to the invention have antiwear, friction reducing and antioxidant properties in lubricant formulations.

Cette invention concerne donc des additifs surbasés pour huiles lubrifiantes, composés d'au moins un détergent et d'un carbonate de métal alcalin ou alcalino-terreux dans une huile diluante se présentant sous la forme d'une dispersion colloïdale dont les micelles renferment ledit carbonate caractérisés en ce que au moins un complexe organique du molybdène pratiquement insoluble dans les hydrocarbures est incorporé dans les micelles de la dispersion colloïdale.This invention therefore relates to overbased additives for lubricating oils, composed of at least one detergent and of an alkali or alkaline earth metal carbonate in a diluting oil which is in the form of a colloidal dispersion, the micelles of which contain said carbonate. characterized in that at least one organic complex of molybdenum practically insoluble in hydrocarbons is incorporated in the micelles of the colloidal dispersion.

Parmi les complexes organiques du molybdène conviennent tout particulièrement les complexes amine-molybdène.Among the organic molybdenum complexes, the amine-molybdenum complexes are particularly suitable.

Les complexes amine-molybdène sont préparés par réaction d'un composé minéral du molybdène a réaction acide, avec une amine.The amine-molybdenum complexes are prepared by the reaction of an inorganic molybdenum compound with an acid reaction, with an amine.

Parmi ces composés du molybdène on peut énumérer l'acide molybdique, les molybdates alcalins, le sodium hydrogène molybdate, le molybdate d'ammonium, le MoOCl₄, le MoO₂ Br₂, le Mo₂O₃Cl₆ et le trioxyde de molybdène.Among these molybdenum compounds can be listed molybdic acid, alkaline molybdates, sodium hydrogen molybdate, ammonium molybdate, MoOCl₄, MoO₂ Br₂, Mo₂O₃Cl₆ and molybdenum trioxide.

On utilise de préférence le molybdate de sodium et le molybdate d'ammonium.Sodium molybdate and ammonium molybdate are preferably used.

Les amines utilisées sont de structure aliphatiques ou aromatiques.The amines used have an aliphatic or aromatic structure.

Parmi les amines aliphatiques conviennent des amines primaires, secondaires ou tertiaires condition de former avec des composés du molybdène des complexes pratiquement insolubles dans les hydrocarbures. L'emploi des amines primaires, dont les complexes avec le molybdène sont très peu solubles dans les hydrocarbures est particulièrement recommandé.Among the aliphatic amines, primary, secondary or tertiary amines are suitable provided that they form complexes with molybdenum complexes which are practically insoluble in hydrocarbons. The use of primary amines, whose complexes with molybdenum are not very soluble in hydrocarbons is particularly recommended.

Parmi les amines primaires nous citerons l'oleylamine, la stéarylamine, la dodécylamine, la ter-dodécylamine, l'éthyl-2-hexylamine et la cyclohexylamine.Among the primary amines we will cite oleylamine, stearylamine, dodecylamine, ter-dodecylamine, ethyl-2-hexylamine and cyclohexylamine.

Le groupe amine peut être attaché à un carbone primaire, comme dans les amines déjà citées, mais également à un carbone secondaire ou tertiaire, comme dans le 1-amino-1,1-diméthyl-décane et le 1-amino-1,1-diméthyl-dodécane.The amine group can be attached to a primary carbon, as in the amines already mentioned, but also to a secondary or tertiary carbon, as in 1-amino-1,1-dimethyl-decane and 1-amino-1,1 -dimethyl-dodecane.

L'utilisation de certaines amines secondaires peut être recommandée. Ainsi les amines secondaires, dans lesquelles le nombre total de carbone ne dépasse pas 12, donnent en général avec le molybdène, des complexes insolubles dans les hydrocarbures.The use of certain secondary amines may be recommended. Thus secondary amines, in which the total number of carbon does not exceed 12, generally give, with molybdenum, complexes insoluble in hydrocarbons.

Parmi les amines aromatiques nous pouvons mentionner la para-dodécylaniline.Among the aromatic amines we can mention para-dodecylaniline.

Le complexe présente un aspect solide ou pateux, selon le type d'amine utilisé. Sa couleur varie du blanc au bleu. Il est pratiquement insoluble ou très peu soluble dans les hydrocarbures.The complex has a solid or pasty appearance, depending on the type of amine used. Its color varies from white to blue. It is practically insoluble or very sparingly soluble in hydrocarbons.

Le rapport atomique de l'azote au molybdène dans le complexe est en général compris entre 0,25 et 4 et de préférence entre 0,5 et 2.The atomic ratio of nitrogen to molybdenum in the complex is generally between 0.25 and 4 and preferably between 0.5 and 2.

La teneur en molybdène du complexe varie en fonction de la nature de l'amine utilisée: elle est comprise entre environ 10 et 45 %.The molybdenum content of the complex varies depending on the nature of the amine used: it is between approximately 10 and 45%.

Parmi les complexes organique du molydène on peut également citer les complexes avec des composés oxygénés.Among the organic molydene complexes, mention may also be made of complexes with oxygenated compounds.

Conviennent tout particulièrement les glycols 1-2, 1-3 et 1-4. On utilise de préférence l'éthylène glycol et le propylène glycol.Particularly suitable are glycols 1-2, 1-3 and 1-4. Preferably ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are used.

Parmi les polyols nous pouvons mentionner le glycerol et le triméthylol propane.Among the polyols we can mention glycerol and trimethylol propane.

Certaines amines, ou polyamines alkoxylées, de préférence avec l'oxyde de l'éthylène ou l'oxyde de propylène conviennent également. Nous pouvons mentionner les dérivés de la diethanolamine ou de la tri-ethanolamine.Certain alkoxylated amines, or polyamines, preferably with ethylene oxide or propylene oxide are also suitable. We can mention the derivatives of diethanolamine or tri-ethanolamine.

La préparation de ces complexes peut être réalisée par chauffage à 90-100°C du composé oxygéné, en présence d'un composé du molybdène, comme le molybdate d'ammonium. L'eau produite par la réaction est éliminée sous courant d'azote.The preparation of these complexes can be carried out by heating the oxygenated compound to 90-100 ° C., in the presence of a molybdenum compound, such as ammonium molybdate. The water produced by the reaction is removed under a stream of nitrogen.

La teneur en molybdène des complexes obtenus varie entre 7 et 50 % poids, selon le degré d'élimination du composé oxygèné non réagi.The molybdenum content of the complexes obtained varies between 7 and 50% by weight, depending on the degree of elimination of the unreacted oxygenated compound.

Le complexe organique du molybdène peut être sulfurisé par exemple par action de l'anhydride sulfurique (H₂S) sur une suspension du complexe dans un solvant aromatique comme le xylène ou le toluène, à une température comprise entre 40°C et 100°C. Dès l'introduction de l'anhydride sulfurique, la couleur de la suspension passe du bleu-vert à l'orangé puis au rouge. La quantité d'anhydre sulfurique introduite est telle que le rapport atomique du soufre au molybdène soit compris entre environ 1 et 3.The organic molybdenum complex can be sulfurized for example by the action of sulfuric anhydride (H₂S) on a suspension of the complex in an aromatic solvent such as xylene or toluene, at a temperature between 40 ° C and 100 ° C. As soon as sulfuric anhydride is introduced, the color of the suspension changes from blue-green to orange and then to red. The quantity of sulfuric anhydride introduced is such that the atomic ratio of sulfur to molybdenum is between approximately 1 and 3.

Le procédé de préparation d'additifs surbasés selon l'invention consiste à carbonater un mélange renfermant un détergent ou un précurseur de détergent, un dérivé d'un métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux, un promoteur azoté et/ou oxygéné, éventuellement un solvant hydrocarboné, une huile diluante et/ou de l'eau, caractérisé en ce que ledit mélange renferme au moins un complexe organique du molybdène pratiquement insoluble dans les hydrocarbures.The process for the preparation of overbased additives according to the invention consists in carbonating a mixture containing a detergent or a detergent precursor, a derivative of an alkali or alkaline earth metal, a nitrogenous and / or oxygenated promoter, optionally a hydrocarbon solvent, a diluent oil and / or water, characterized in that said mixture contains at least one organic complex of molybdenum practically insoluble in hydrocarbons.

Parmi les détergents utilisables dans le cadre de l'invention on peut citer les sulfonates, les phénates, les naphtenates, les salicylates, les phosphonates et les thiophosphonates alcalins ou alcalinoterreux solubles dans le milieu hydrocarboné.Among the detergents which can be used in the context of the invention, there may be mentioned sulfonates, phenates, naphtenates, salicylates, phosphonates and thiophosphonates alkali or alkaline earth soluble in the hydrocarbon medium.

Les acides sulfoniques utilisés pour la préparation des sulfonates peuvent être d'origine pétrolière ou synthétique. Les acides sulfoniques pétroliers sont préparés par sulfonation d'huiles issues de la distillation du pétrole. Leur structure ne correspond pas à une formule bien définie mais leur poids moléculaire moyen doit être au moins égal à 300.The sulfonic acids used for the preparation of the sulfonates can be of petroleum or synthetic origin. Petroleum sulfonic acids are prepared by sulfonation of oils from the distillation of petroleum. Their structure does not correspond to a well defined formula but their average molecular weight must be at least equal to 300.

Les acides sulfoniques synthétiques sont préparés par alkylation de composés aromatiques comme le benzène, toluène, xylène ou naphtalène avec des coupes oléfiniques puis par sulfonation de l'alkylat obtenu. La structure des chaînes alkyles fixées sur le noyau est linéaire ou ramifiée selon les oléfines utilisées pour l'alkylation. Le nombre d'atomes de carbone par chaine alkyle est supérieur ou égal à 8.Synthetic sulfonic acids are prepared by alkylation of aromatic compounds such as benzene, toluene, xylene or naphthalene with olefinic cuts and then by sulfonation of the alkylate obtained. The structure of the alkyl chains attached to the nucleus is linear or branched depending on the olefins used for the alkylation. The number of carbon atoms per alkyl chain is greater than or equal to 8.

La préparation du sulfonate de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux est réalisée par mise en contact de l'acide sulfonique avec un dérivé de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux (oxyde ou hydroxyde préférentiellement) dans un solvant hydrocarboné, éventuellement en présence d'un alcool.The preparation of the alkali or alkaline earth metal sulfonate is carried out by bringing the sulfonic acid into contact with an alkali or alkaline earth metal derivative (preferably oxide or hydroxide) in a hydrocarbon solvent, optionally in the presence of an alcohol.

Les phénates de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux sont préparés dans des conditions analogues ou sensiblement différentes pour ce qui est de la température, à partir d'alkylphénol ou d'alkylphénol sulfurisé. Le noyau phénol peut porter une ou deux chaines alkyl linéaires ou ramifiées, comptant au moins huit atomes de carbone. Le composé le plus répandu est le dodécylphénol.The alkali or alkaline earth metal phenates are prepared under analogous or substantially different temperature conditions, from sulfurized alkylphenol or alkylphenol. The phenol ring can carry one or two linear or branched alkyl chains, having at least eight carbon atoms. The most common compound is dodecylphenol.

La sulfurisation éventuelle du phénol est réalisée par action du monochlorure de soufre S₂ Cl₂ ou par action du soufre élémentaire à des températures allant de 150 à 200°C. Le produit sulfurisé contient environ 1 à 1,5 atomes de soufre par noyau phénolique.The optional sulfurization of phenol is carried out by the action of sulfur monochloride S₂ Cl₂ or by the action of elemental sulfur at temperatures ranging from 150 to 200 ° C.

Tous ces détergents peuvent être utilisés en mélange avec des dispersants solubles en milieu hydrocarboné par exemple du type alkylsuccinimide ou esters d'acides alkylsucciniques de poids moléculaire 300 à 2500.All of these detergents can be used in admixture with dispersants soluble in a hydrocarbon medium, for example of the alkylsuccinimide type or esters of alkylsuccinic acids with a molecular weight of 300 to 2500.

A la place des détergents, le milieu réactionnel peut renfermer les précurseurs. Dans ce cas la neutralisation est réalisée dans le milieu réactionnel juste avant la carbonatation.In place of detergents, the reaction medium can contain the precursors. In this case, neutralization is carried out in the reaction medium just before carbonation.

Les dérivés de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux peuvent être les oxydes, hydroxydes ou alcoolates. Les dérivés préférés sont les oxydes et hydroxydes.The alkali or alkaline earth metal derivatives can be oxides, hydroxides or alcoholates. The preferred derivatives are oxides and hydroxides.

Ceux-ci sont ajoutés au milieu réactionnel en excès stoéchiométrique par rapport au détergent ou à son précurseur. L'excès stoéchiométrique peut varier entre 5:1 et 30:1.These are added to the reaction medium in stoichiometric excess relative to the detergent or its precursor. The stoichiometric excess can vary between 5: 1 and 30: 1.

Dans le procédé selon l'invention, on introduit dans le milieu réactionnel avant carbonatation un promoteur oxygéné, qui est généralement un alcool aliphatique ou aromatique, un alkoxyalcanol, un glycol ou encore une alcanolamine. On utilise de préférence les alcools aliphatique en C₁ à C₂₀ ou leurs mélanges. Les alcools aliphatiques peuvent être utilisés en mélange avec des glycols, des alkoxyalcanols ou alcanolamines.In the process according to the invention, an oxygenated promoter is introduced into the reaction medium before carbonation, which is generally an aliphatic or aromatic alcohol, an alkoxyalkanol, a glycol or even an alkanolamine. Preferably used aliphatic alcohols C₁ to C₂₀ or mixtures thereof. The aliphatic alcohols can be used in admixture with glycols, alkoxyalkanols or alkanolamines.

Le rapport molaire du promoteur oxygéné au détergent est généralement compris entre 1 et 30.The molar ratio of the oxygenated promoter to the detergent is generally between 1 and 30.

L'utilisation d'un promoteur azoté est facultative. Ce promoteur azoté est généralement choisi parmi l'ammoniaque, les sels d'ammonium, les amines primaires, secondaires ou tertiaires en C₂ à C₁₀ et leurs sels avec les acides carboxyliques ou l'acide borique, les polyamines ou encore les alcanolamines.The use of a nitrogenous promoter is optional. This nitrogenous promoter is generally chosen from ammonia, ammonium salts, primary, secondary or tertiary amines in C₂ to C₁₀ and their salts with carboxylic acids or boric acid, polyamines or even alkanolamines.

Parmi les promoteurs azotés, on préfère l'ammoniaque, le carbonate et le chlorure d'ammonium, l'éthylènediamine, l'éthanolamine ou la diéthanolamine.Among the nitrogenous promoters, ammonia, carbonate and ammonium chloride, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine or diethanolamine are preferred.

Le rapport molaire du promoteur au détergent est généralement compris entre 1 et 30.The promoter to detergent molar ratio is generally between 1 and 30.

Le solvant hydrocarboné permet une homogénéisation parfaite des différents réactifs ainsi qu'un abaissement de la viscosité ce qui facilitera ultérieurement la récupération des résidus solides de carbonatation. Le solvant représente de 10 à 70 % poids du mélange réactionnel. Les solvants utilisés sont les composés aliphatiques ou aromatiques en C₆ et C₁₂. Les solvants préférés sont les solvant aromatiques comme le benzène, toluène, xylène, éthylbenzène et les aromatiques chlorés. Leur choix est dicté par les caractéristiques de l'additif recueilli, par leur point d'ébullition et par le point d'ébullition des azéotropes qu'ils peuvent former avec les promoteurs oxygénés et l'eau.The hydrocarbon solvent allows perfect homogenization of the various reagents as well as a lowering of the viscosity which will subsequently facilitate the recovery of solid carbonation residues. The solvent represents from 10 to 70% by weight of the reaction mixture. The solvents used are the aliphatic or aromatic compounds in C₆ and C₁₂. Preferred solvents are aromatic solvents such as benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene and chlorinated aromatics. Their choice is dictated by the characteristics of the additive collected, by their boiling point and by the boiling point of the azeotropes which they can form with oxygenated promoters and water.

La manipulation de l'additif surbasé au molybdène, obtenu selon l'invention est facilitée par l'addition d'huile. L'huile représente environ 20 à 50 % poids de l'additif obtenu. Celle-ci peut être ajoutée au milieu réactionnel avant la carbonatation ou encore après celle-ci, c'est-à-dire juste avant l'élimination du solvant. Les huiles diluantes utilisées sont de nature paraffinique, du type 100 ou 150 Neutral solvant ou de nature majoritairement napthénique telle que la 100 - 150 pale solvant.The handling of the molybdenum overbased additive obtained according to the invention is facilitated by the addition of oil. The oil represents approximately 20 to 50% by weight of the additive obtained. This can be added to the reaction medium before carbonation or even after this, that is to say just before the removal of the solvent. The diluent oils used are paraffinic in nature, of the 100 or 150 Neutral solvent type or predominantly naphthenic in nature such as 100 - 150 pale solvent.

La réaction de carbonatation peut être réalisée après addition éventuelle d'eau au milieu réactionnel. L'addition d'eau s'avère particulièrement bénéfique lorsque le dérivé de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux est un oxyde. Généralement la quantité d'eau ajoutée est telle que le rapport molaire eau/oxyde de métal soit de l'ordre de 0,5.The carbonation reaction can be carried out after optional addition of water to the reaction medium. The addition of water is particularly beneficial when the alkali or alkaline earth metal derivative is an oxide. Generally the amount of water added is such that the water / metal oxide molar ratio is of the order of 0.5.

La mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention consiste à introduire successivement dans un réacteur équipé d'un agitateur, d'une régulation de température, d'un dispositif de barbotage de gaz carbonique, d'un système de chauffage et de mise sous vide :

  • 0 à 700 parties poids d'un solvant hydrocarboné
  • 100 à 400 parties poids d'un détergent ou d'un précurseur de détergent
  • un dérivé de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux en excès stoéchiométrique par rapport au détergent ou à son précurseur. Cet excès stoéchiométrique est compris entre 5:1 et 30:1
  • un promoteur oxygéné dont le rapport molaire au détergent ou à son précurseur est compris entre 1 et 30
  • éventuellement un promoteur azoté dont le rapport molaire au détergent est compris entre 1 et 30
  • éventuellement une quantité d'eau telle que le rapport molaire eau/oxyde de métal soit de l'ordre de 0.5
  • éventuellement de l'huile diluante en quantité telle que celle-ci représente 20 à 50 % poids de l'additif récupéré à la fin des opérations
  • un complexe organique du molybdène décrit précédemment en quantité telle que la teneur en molybdène du produit fini soit comprise entre 0,1 et 10 % poids.
The implementation of the method according to the invention consists in successively introducing into a reactor equipped with an agitator, a temperature regulation, a device for bubbling carbon dioxide, a heating and heating system. empty:
  • 0 to 700 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon solvent
  • 100 to 400 parts by weight of a detergent or a detergent precursor
  • an alkali or alkaline earth metal derivative in stoichiometric excess relative to the detergent or its precursor. This stoichiometric excess is between 5: 1 and 30: 1
  • an oxygenated promoter whose molar ratio to the detergent or to its precursor is between 1 and 30
  • optionally a nitrogen promoter whose molar ratio to detergent is between 1 and 30
  • optionally an amount of water such that the water / metal oxide molar ratio is of the order of 0.5
  • optionally diluent oil in quantity such as this represents 20 to 50% by weight of the additive recovered at the end of the operations
  • an organic complex of molybdenum described above in an amount such that the molybdenum content of the finished product is between 0.1 and 10% by weight.

Dans le cas où on utilise un précurseur de détergent il est préférable d'introduire successivement le précurseur, le complexe du molybdène et enfin l'excès de dérivé de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux.In the case where a detergent precursor is used, it is preferable to successively introduce the precursor, the molybdenum complex and finally the excess of alkali or alkaline earth metal derivative.

On réalise ensuite la neutralisation du précurseur du détergent, puis on procède à la carbonatation de l'excès stoéchiométrique du dérivé de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux à une température comprise entre la température ambiante et la température de reflux du mélange. Le rapport molaire du CO₂ introduit à l'excès stoéchiométrique de métal alcalin ou alcalinoterreux est compris entre 0,6 et 1,2. Le mélange est éventuellement stabilisé par chauffage sous vide ou sous courant d'azote de façon à éliminer les promoteurs oxygénés de bas point d'ébullition et l'eau ajoutée ainsi que l'eau produite par la carbonatation. Les résidus solides sont éliminés par centrifugation et/ou filtration à l'aide de terres à diatomées. Si l'huile diluante n'a pas été ajoutée avant carbonatation, elle est alors ajoutée avant élimination éventuelle du solvant hydrocarboné et des alcools lourds, par chauffage sous vide à des températures de l'ordre de 100 à 200°C.Neutralization of the detergent precursor is then carried out, followed by carbonation of the stoichiometric excess of the alkali or alkaline earth metal derivative at a temperature between room temperature and the reflux temperature of the mixture. The molar ratio of CO₂ introduced to the stoichiometric excess of alkali or alkaline earth metal is between 0.6 and 1.2. The mixture is optionally stabilized by heating under vacuum or under a stream of nitrogen so as to eliminate the oxygenated promoters of low boiling point and the water added as well as the water produced by carbonation. Solid residues are removed by centrifugation and / or filtration using diatomaceous earth. If the diluent oil has not been added before carbonation, it is then added before possible elimination of the hydrocarbon solvent and heavy alcohols, by heating under vacuum at temperatures of the order of 100 to 200 ° C.

Il faut remarquer que l'opération de filtration peut être réalisée après récupération du solvant.It should be noted that the filtration operation can be carried out after recovery of the solvent.

Les produits surbasés contenant du molybdène, obtenus selon l'invention, sont limpides et stables, de coloration brune pour les sulfonates, vert foncé pour les phénates et noire pour les salicylates. La couleur est généralement rouge pour les détergents surbasés en présence d'un complexe sulfurisé.The overbased products containing molybdenum, obtained according to the invention, are clear and stable, brown in color for the sulfonates, dark green for the phenates and black for the salicylates. The color is generally red for overbased detergents in the presence of a sulfurized complex.

Le taux d'incorporation du molybdène dans l'additif est proche de 100 %, nettement supérieur aux taux obtenus lors de l'incorporation de dérivés inorganiques du molybdène.The rate of incorporation of molybdenum into the additive is close to 100%, significantly higher than the rates obtained during the incorporation of inorganic derivatives of molybdenum.

L'additif renferme entre 0,1 à 10 % poids et de préférence 1 à 4 % de molybdène.The additive contains between 0.1 to 10% by weight and preferably 1 to 4% of molybdenum.

Les additifs surbasés selon l'invention sont entièrement solubles dans les hydrocarbures. Ils sont incorporés aux huiles lubrifiantes d'origine naturelle ou synthétique à une concentration comprise entre 0,5 et 40 % poids et de préférence entre 1 et 30 % poids.The overbased additives according to the invention are entirely soluble in hydrocarbons. They are incorporated into lubricating oils of natural or synthetic origin at a concentration of between 0.5 and 40% by weight and preferably between 1 and 30% by weight.

Les compositions lubrifiantes ainsi obtenues peuvent renfermer d'autres additifs, à effet antiusure, dispersant, antioxydant, et des polymères améliorant l'indice de viscosité.The lubricant compositions thus obtained can contain other additives, with antiwear, dispersing, antioxidant effect, and polymers improving the viscosity index.

On récupère après élimination du solvant 80g de solide pateux contenant 11,5 % de molybdène et 3,41 % d'azote. On peut remarquer que les complexes préparés dans les exemples A à I sont pratiquement insolubles dans les composés hydrocarbonés ainsi d'ailleurs que dans l'eau ou les alcools.The procedure is as in Example A, but an aqueous solution containing 48.4 g of sodium molybdate is acidified with 65.4 g of 30% sulfuric acid.

After removal of the solvent, 80 g of pasty solid containing 11.5% molybdenum and 3.41% nitrogen are recovered. It can be noted that the complexes prepared in Examples A to I are practically insoluble in hydrocarbon compounds as well as in water or in alcohols.

Leur incorporation dans les additifs surbasés ne se fait donc pas par dissolution dans la phase hydrocarbonée, mais par incorporation du complexe dans les particules colloidales de carbonate.Their incorporation into overbased additives is therefore not done by dissolution in the hydrocarbon phase, but by incorporation of the complex in the colloidal carbonate particles.

EXEMPLE 16EXAMPLE 16

Les performances des nouveaux détergents surbasés contenant du molybdène sont examinées sur des essais en laboratoire d'usure, de frottement et d'oxydation. Les matrices d'essai correspondent à des lubrifiants pour moteurs terrestre d'une part et pour moteurs marins d'autre part.
Tout d'abord les produits sont testés dans une formulation lubrifiante utilisée dans les moteurs à essence (ELF Presti 15 W 40) en simple substitution du détergent surbasé.
The performance of new overbased detergents containing molybdenum is examined in laboratory tests of wear, friction and oxidation. The test matrices correspond to lubricants for land engines on the one hand and for marine engines on the other.
First of all, the products are tested in a lubricant formulation used in petrol engines (ELF Presti 15 W 40) by simply replacing the overbased detergent.

Les échantillons renferment 1,25 % de détergent surbasé.The samples contain 1.25% overbased detergent.

ESSAI D'USURE et de FROTTEMENT (lubrifiant pour moteurs à essence) WEAR and FRICTION TEST (lubricant for petrol engines) Essai Falex : (selon la norme ASTM 2670). Falex test : (according to ASTM 2670).

L'essai est réalisé dans les conditions suivantes :
   Rodage 5 minutes sous 200 lbs (normal load)
   3 heures sous 540 lbs (normal load)
En fin d'essai on note la valeur du couple de frottement, de l'usure en nombre de dents de la roue à rochet et de la température du bain d'huile testée. (L'usure est autant plus faible que le nombre de dents, le couple de frottement et la température sont moins élevés). Le tableau 1 permet de constater que les sulfonates surbasés contenant un complexe amine-molybdène permettent une réduction de 50 à 70 % en moyenne du couple de frottement. L'utilisation d'un réducteur de frottement au molybdène classique, associé à un sulfonate de référence donne un résultat catastrophique (Exemple 1 + 1,2 % MOLYVAN L) bien que la teneur en molybdène dans ce dernier cas soit de l'ordre de 1200ppm contre 250ppm pour les huiles formulées avec les sulfonates surbasés contenant du molybdène selon l'invention.

Lapping 5 minutes under 200 lbs (normal load)
3 hours under 540 lbs (normal load)
At the end of the test, the value of the friction torque, the wear in number of teeth of the ratchet wheel and the temperature of the oil bath tested are noted. (The wear is as much lower as the number of teeth, the friction torque and the temperature are lower). Table 1 shows that the overbased sulfonates containing an amine-molybdenum complex allow a reduction of 50 to 70% on average in the friction torque. The use of a conventional molybdenum friction reducer, combined with a reference sulfonate gives a catastrophic result (Example 1 + 1.2% MOLYVAN L) although the molybdenum content in the latter case is of the order of 1200 ppm versus 250 ppm for oils formulated with overbased sulfonates containing molybdenum according to the invention.
Figure imgb0001

There is also a strong reduction in heating due to the reduction in friction provided by the overbased sulfonates according to the invention.

ESSAI D'OXYDATION(TFOUT)OXIDATION TEST (TFOUT)

Le test TFOUT (thin film oxygen uptake test) est pratiqué sur les mêmes formulations essence. Il est réalisé à 160°C dans une bombe pressurisée à l'oxygène (90 psi) en présence de catalyseur métallique (Naphténate de Pb, Cu, Fe, Mn et Sn), d'eau et d'essence nitro oxydée de façon à simuler, en partie les conditions auxquelles l'huile peut être soumise dans un moteur à essence. Le tableau 3 donne des valeurs du temps d'induction c'est-à-dire le temps entre le début de l'essai et le début de la chute rapide de pression dans la bombe.The TFOUT test (thin film oxygen uptake test) is performed on the same essence formulations. It is carried out at 160 ° C. in a pressurized oxygen bomb (90 psi) in the presence of metal catalyst (Naphtenate of Pb, Cu, Fe, Mn and Sn), water and nitro petrol oxidized so as to partially simulate the conditions to which oil can be subjected in a petrol engine. Table 3 gives values of the induction time, that is to say the time between the start of the test and the start of the rapid pressure drop in the bomb.

L'augmentation du temps d'induction est significative en présence de l'additif contenant le complexe molybdène-amine.

Les détergents surbasés contenant du molybdène sont ensuite testés dans une formulation lubrifiante pour moteur marin (huile cylindre).The overbased detergents containing molybdenum are then tested in a lubricant formulation for a marine engine (cylinder oil).

La basicité de l'huile est de 70 mg KOH/g dont seulement 20 mg KOH/g apportés par le détergent surbasé.The basicity of the oil is 70 mg KOH / g of which only 20 mg KOH / g provided by the overbased detergent.

L'huile contient en outre 0,5 % de DTPZ.The oil also contains 0.5% DTPZ.
