Definitions
- This invention relates to lubricating oil compositions, more especially to compositions suitable for use in piston engine, especially gasoline (spark-ignited) and diesel (compression-ignited), crankcase lubrication.
- Such compositions may be referred to as crankcase lubricants.
- ZDDP's zinc dialkyldithiophosphates
- phosphorus derivatives deriving from the ZDDP's can poison the components of exhaust gas catalytic converters.
- Calatytic converters are used to reduce pollution and to meet governmental regulations requiring reduction in the levels of undesirable gases, such as hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen, from internal engine combustion exhaust emissions.
- Such converters use catalysts which are installed in the exhaust streams, e.g. the exhausts of automobiles, to treat the undesirable gases.
- Phosphorus derivatives, such as decomposition products of ZDDP's can be carried into the exhaust, where they are believed to poison the catalyst.
- engine oils containing phosphorus additives may substantially reduce the life and effectiveness of catalytic converters. Therefore, it would be desirable to reduce, or eliminate, the phosphorus-content of engine oils so as to maintain the activity and extend the life of catalytic converters. Also, it is possible that sulfur-containing components may poison the catalysts, for example those used to reduce the levels of oxides of nitrogen.
