Definitions

  • This invention relates to grease compositions. More particularly, it relates to metal soap thickened base greases containing certain boron- and phosphorus-containing property-improving additives.
  • Metal soap thickened greases have provided exemplary performance. Performance of greases may be enhanced by incorporating therein various types of additives.
  • A.C. Witte, Lubrication , Vol. 77, No. 1, Texaco Inc., White Plains, N.Y., (1991), pp 2-3 is a discussion of additives for greases, including antioxidants, rust and corrosion inhibitors, EP (extreme pressure) additives, antiwear additives, lubricity agents, tackifiers and fillers.
  • Dropping point is one measure of the thermal stability of a grease.
  • One way to increase the dropping point of base greases is to convert a simple metal soap grease to a complex grease by incorporating therein certain acids, typically carboxylic acids such as acetic acid, alpha-omega-dicarboxylic acids and certain aromatic acids. This additional step necessarily consumes considerable time resulting in reduced production.
  • Doner et al in a series of US Patents, specifically, US Patents 5,084,194 5,068,045 4,961,868 4,828,734 4,828,732 4,781,850 4,780,227 4,743,386 4,655,948 4,600,517 4,582,617 teaches increased thickening of metal salt thickened base greases is obtained by employing certain boron-containing compounds.
  • Other additives contemplated by Doner et al for use with boron-containing compounds are phosphorus- and sulfur-containing materials, particularly zinc dithiophosphates.
  • an improved grease composition comprising a major amount of an oil based simple metal soap thickened base grease and a minor amount of at least one phosphorus and boron containing composition, said phosphorus and boron containing composition prepared by reacting a combination of (A) at least one boron compound and (B) at least one phospholipid.
  • the phosphorus and boron containing composition is present in amounts sufficient to improve the extreme pressure, antiwear and lubricity properties of the base grease.
  • the phosphorus and boron containing composition is present in amounts sufficient to increase the dropping point of the base grease, as determined by ASTM procedure D-2265, by at least 20°C.
  • the greases of this invention are useful for lubricating, sealing and protecting mechanical components such as gears, axles, bearings, shafts, hinges and the like.
  • mechanical components are found in automobiles, trucks, bicycles, steel mills, mining equipment, railway equipment including rolling stock, aircraft, boats, construction equipment and numerous other types of industrial and consumer machinery.
  • greases must provide, to varying degrees, lubricity, extreme pressure and antiwear properties and depending upon the application, acceptable thermal stability (heat resistance).
  • Extreme pressure performance of a grease permits the grease to perform under high load conditions, particularly, under boundary conditions.
  • a base grease without extreme pressure property improving additives, is unable to provide acceptable extreme pressure properties.
  • a lubricating grease should provide protection against undesirable wear of the lubricated parts.
  • Chemical additives are frequently used to enhance antiwear performance of a base grease.
  • Oil-based greases inherently provide a certain degree of lubricity. Lubricity properties of a base grease may be enhanced by incorporating therein certain lubricity improving additives.
  • Heat resistance of greases is measured in a number of ways.
  • One measure of heat resistance is the dropping point.
  • Grease typically does not have a sharp melting point but, rather, softens until it no longer functions as a thickened lubricant.
  • ASTM D-2265 The American Society for Testing and Materials (1916 Race Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) has set forth a test procedure, ASTM D-2265, which provides a means for measuring the dropping point of greases.
  • the dropping point of a grease is the temperature at which the grease passes from a semisolid to a liquid state under the conditions of the test.
  • the dropping point is the temperature at which the first drop of material falls from the test cup employed in the apparatus used in ASTM procedure D-2265.
  • Complex metal soap greases provide increased dropping point, but have a number of significant drawbacks.
  • Complex thickeners have incorporated therein, in addition to a fatty acid component, a non-fatty acid, e.g., benzoic, organic dibasic acids, etc. component.
  • the formation of the complex grease typically involves the additional step of reaction of the non-fatty acid with the simple metal soap, and requires extended heating periods, sometimes several times that required to prepare a simple metal soap thickened grease. Accordingly, it is desirable to provide a means for preparing a simple metal soap thickened grease composition having dropping points approaching or even exceeding those possessed by complex greases.
  • the grease compositions of this invention display improved extreme pressure properties when compared to the base grease. In another embodiment, the grease compositions display improved antiwear properties and in a still further embodiment, they display improved lubricity.
  • the grease compositions of this invention also may display dropping points at least 20°C greater than the dropping point of the corresponding oil based simple metal soap thickened base grease. This benefit is obtained by incorporating into the simple metal soap thickened base grease certain boron and phosphorus containing compositions as described herein in amounts sufficient to increase the dropping point of the corresponding base grease by at least about 20°C as measured by ASTM Procedure D-2265.
  • boron-containing compounds are sensitive to water, either being water-soluble, being subject to leaching from the grease into water or being readily hydrolyzed yielding undesirable hydrolysis products or to hydrolysis products which readily leach out into water.
  • the phosphorus and boron containing compositions employed in the grease composition of this invention do not display objectionable water sensitivity.
  • Greases are typically prepared by thickening an oil basestock.
  • the greases of this invention are oil-based, that is, they comprise an oil which has been thickened with a metal soap thickener.
  • the grease compositions of this invention employ an oil of lubricating viscosity, including natural or synthetic lubricating oils and mixtures thereof.
  • Natural oils include animal oils, vegetable oils, mineral oils, solvent or acid treated mineral oils, and oils derived from coal or shale.
  • Synthetic lubricating oils include hydrocarbon oils, halo-substituted hydrocarbon oils, alkylene oxide polymers, esters of carboxylic acids and polyols, esters of polycarboxylic acids and alcohols, esters of phosphorus-containing acids, polymeric tetrahydrofurans, silicone-based oils and mixtures thereof.
  • oils of lubricating viscosity are presented in US Patent 4,326,972 and European Patent Publication 107,282.
