  • This invention relates to oleaginous compositions of enhanced performance characteristics, to additive concentrates for enhancing the performance characteristics of oleaginous base fluids (e.g., lubricants and functional fluids), and to methods of achieving such enhanced performance characteristics.
  • oleaginous base fluids e.g., lubricants and functional fluids
  • This invention provides additive systems capable of imparting enhanced performance characteristics to natural and synthetic oils of lubricating viscosity.
  • this invention makes it possible to achieve such enhanced performance with additive systems containing reduced amounts of metal-containing performance enhancers such as metal dithiophosphates and/or metal dithiocarbamates.
  • metal-containing performance enhancers such as metal dithiophosphates and/or metal dithiocarbamates.
  • this invention makes it possible to achieve a high level of performance with a reduced level of conventional metal-containing performance enhancers such as zinc dialkyldithiophosphates.
  • components a) and b) of such compositions make it possible to achieve performance levels (reduction in sludge formation and/or deposition and reduction in wear in gears and/or other relatively moveable metal surfaces in contact with each other) normally achieved, if at all, by higher concentrations of component a). Morever, these performance levels can be maintained for long periods of time despite the well-known relatively low thermal stability of compounds such as the zinc dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphates.
  • Another advantageous feature of this invention is that certain preferred combinations of components a) and b) can exhibit good compatibility toward elastomers commonly employed in the manufacture of seals or gaskets, clutch plate facings, etc., such as nitrile rubbers, fluoroelastomers, and silicone-type elastomers.

  • such elastomers are not subjected to excessive degradation when in contact under actual service conditions with a preferred lubricant or functional fluid composition of this invention containing particular combinations of components a) and b), which combinations are thus preferred because of this
  • component b) should be formed from one or more sulfur-free phosphorus compounds and the overall sulfur content of the finished lubricant or functional fluid composition should be kept below about 1% and most preferably below about 0.3% based on the total weight of the finished lubricant or functional fluid composition.
  • Another embodiment of this invention involves the discovery, inter alia, that basic alkali metal-containing and/or basic alkaline earth metal-containing detergents of the types generally known to be useful in oleaginous fluids (e.g., overbased sulfonates, overbased phenates, overbased sulfurized phenates, overbased salicylates, overbased sulfurized salicylates, etc.) can serve a dual role in the compositions of this invention. Besides contributing detergency to the compositions, such metal compounds can serve to reduce corrosive attack on so-called "yellow metals" such as copper, bronze, and the like.
  • Detergents of the foregoing types having a total base number (TBN) of at least about 50 are utilized in the practice of this embodiment of the invention In this connection, TBN is determined in accordance with ASTM D-2896-88.

  • the other is comprised of oil-soluble metal hydrocarbyl dithiocarbamates.
  • Type 1 - Metal hydrocarbyl dithiophosphates .
  • metal hydrocarbyl dithiophosphates are usually prepared by reacting phosphorus pentasulfide with one or more alcohols or phenolic compounds or diols to produce a hydrocarbyl dithiophosphoric acid which is then neutralized with one or more metal-containing bases.
  • a monohydric alcohol or phenol is used in this reaction, the final product is a metal dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphate.
  • a suitable diol e.g., 2,4-pentanediol
  • the final product is a metal salt of a cyclic hydrocarbyl dithiophosphoric acid. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,089,850.

  • hydrocarbyl groups may contain ether oxygen atoms, thioether sulfur atoms, secondary or tertiary amino nitrogen atoms, and/or inert functional groups such as esterified carboxylic groups, keto groups, thioketo groups, and the like.
