Description

The present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition for use in industrial oils such as hydraulic oils, bearing oils, industrial gear oils and sliding surface lubricating oils. The lubricating oil composition of the present invention provides excellent thermal stability, extreme pressure resistance and anti-wear performance.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The technology that is normally responsible for separating the applications of lubricants is anti-wear or extreme pressure (EP) chemistry. The distinction between anti-wear and EP is difficult to define but anti-wear is in general based on the prevention of damage caused by moderate and intermittent loadings whereas EP is the protection from shock loadings and continually applied heavy or sliding loads. Two types of chemistry have evolved around these needs. EP and anti-wear protection are typically provided by "ash-containing" components such as zinc dithiophosphates (ZnDTP). ZnDTP are commonly employed as additives in lubricating oils primarily for their excellent extreme pressure and anti-wear properties. However, ZnDTP may decompose at high operating temperatures and produce sludge that can contribute to filter plugging and viscosity increase of the lubricating oil. The other type of chemistry involves "ashless" sulfur and phosphorus chemistry. The reference to ash containing or ashless chemistry is historical and there are now ashless alternatives to ZnDTP. Generally, phosphorus-containing anti-wear agents have excellent thermal stability under conditions of high temperature operation as demanded, for instance, in industrial oils such as hydraulic oil, bearing oil, industrial gear oil and sliding surface lubricating oil. But, extreme pressure and anti-wear performance is relatively poor in comparison to ZnDTP. Thus, in practice ZnDTP-free lubricating oils combining thermal stability, extreme pressure resistance and anti-wear performance are rare. It is not easy to produce lubricating oils having thermal stability at high temperatures with concomitant extreme pressure and anti-wear performance.
Japanese Patent Provisional Publication No. 9-111277 describes an ashless hydraulic oil composition comprising a base oil having a % C_A (percentage that represents the number of carbon atoms in aromatic groups divided by total carbon atoms) 5 or less, (A) 0.01-5 wt % of an amine-type oxidation inhibitor, (B) 0.01-5 wt % of a phenolic oxidation inhibitor, (C) 0.01-5 wt % of a phosphoric acid ester, and (D) 0.001-5 wt % of an aliphatic amide and/or a polyhydric alcohol ester.
Japanese Patent Provisional Publication No. 11-323365 describes a hydraulic oil using a mineral oil, a synthetic oil, or a mixture thereof, as a base oil, which further contains (A) 0.01-1 wt % of an alkenyl succinimide or its derivative, (B) 0.1-5 wt % of a phosphoric acid ester, (C) 0.05-0.5 wt % of an alkylated diphenylamine, and (D) 0.05-0.5 wt % of a hindered phenol.

The invention will be further illustrated by the following examples, which set forth particularly advantageous embodiments. While the Examples are provided to illustrate the present invention, they are not intended to limit it. This application is intended to cover those various changes and substitutions that may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Examples 1-4

The components were blended in amounts (wt %) set forth in Table I to prepare lubricating oil compositions.
(A) Tricresyl phosphate solution: TCP (available from Daihachi Chemicals Co., Ltd.)
(B) Triphenyl thiophosphate and its derivative solution (Irgalube 232, available from Ciba Specialty Chemicals, Inc.)

(D) Alkenylsuccinimide (OLOA 371, available from Chevron Oronite Japan Ltd.)
(E) Zinc dithiophosphate (OLOA 269R, available from Chevron Oronite Japan Ltd.)
Each of the components above were blended in a petroleum base oil having a viscosity @ 40°C of 36 cSt containing auxiliary additives, i.e., oxidation inhibitor, metal deactivator, demulsifier, anti-foaming agent, etc. The total phosphorus contents (mass ppm) were those set forth in Table I.

Comparative Examples A-G

The above-mentioned additive components were blended to prepare lubricating oil compositions as described in the Examples. The amounts of each of the components in the Comparative Examples are indicated in Table I.

Performance Evaluation

The lubricating oil compositions of Examples and Comparative Examples were evaluated by the following tests. The results of the tests are set forth in Table II.

Modified CM Thermal Stability Test

The lubricating oil compositions were evaluated by a modified CM Thermal Stability Test that heated the composition at 150 °C rather than at 135 °C under the following conditions:
Test temperature: 150°C
Test period: 168 hours.
The test oil was then filtered over a filter (pore size: 0.8 µm), washed with n-hexane, and dried. The dry residue on the filter was weighed to determine the amount of sludge. The lower the number (mg), the lower the sludge. The viscosity increase is also indicated. A viscosity increase lower than 5% is preferable.

Shell Four-Ball Test

The lubricating oil compositions were evaluated by the Shell Four-Ball Tester, which operated at 1,800 r.p.m., to determine an initial seizure load (ISL). The higher the number (kg), the better the extreme pressure resistance.

Vickers 35VQ25A (M-3952-5)

The Vickers 35VQ25A (M-3952-5) vane pump test is a common wear test to evaluate the anti-wear characteristics of hydraulic oil by means of weight loss on the cam ring and the vanes of a 35VQ25A pump. Test duration is 50 hours per cartridge with a pump outlet pressure of 3,000 psi and an inlet oil temperature of 93.3 °C. A low number indicates low wear.
Results of the three test evaluations are shown in Table II. In general, the lubricating oil composition of the present invention produces sludge and viscosity increase less than the Comparative lubricating oil compositions, while also providing excellent extreme pressure resistance. That is, the lubricating oil compositions of the present invention showed a high initial seizure load in the Shell Four-Ball Test, which means excellent extreme pressure resistance. While some of the Comparative Examples gave modified CM Thermal Stability Test results comparable to the Examples, they did not provide favorable viscosity increase or extreme pressure resistance. See for example, Comparative Example E. Further, Comparative Examples C and D provided excellent extreme pressure resistance, but the thermal stability and viscosity increase were higher than the lubricating oil compositions of the present invention demonstrated by Examples 1-3. Additionally, the lubricating oil composition of the present invention (Example 4) also demonstrated excellent anti-wear performance in the Vicker 35VQ25A (M-3952-5) Test.
These results therefore provide support that the lubricating oil composition of the present invention has a broader scope of lubricating performance than the comparative lubricating oil compositions. The lubricating oil composition of the present invention provides an excellent combination of thermal stability, extreme pressure resistance and anti-wear performance all in one multi-functional package.
