  • Silicon-based oils (such as the polyalkyl-, polyaryl-, polyalkoxy-, or polyaryloxysiloxane oils and silicate oils) comprise another useful class of synthetic lubricating oils.
  • Other synthetic lubricating oils include liquid esters of phosphorus-containing acids, polymeric tetrahydrofurans, poly ⁇ -olefins, and the like.
  • the lubricating oil may be derived from unrefined, refined, rerefined oils, or mixtures thereof.
  • Unrefined oils are obtained directly from a natural source or synthetic source (e.g., coal, shale, or tar and bitumen) without further purification or treatment.
  • Examples of unrefined oils include a shale oil obtained directly from a retorting operation, a petroleum oil obtained directly from distillation, or an ester oil obtained directly from an esterification process, each of which is then used without further treatment.
  • Refined oils are similar to unrefined oils, except that refined oils have been treated in one or more purification steps to improve one or more properties.
  • Suitable purification techniques include distillation, hydrotreating, dewaxing, solvent extraction, acid or base extraction, filtration, percolation, and the like, all of which are well-known to those skilled in the art.
  • Rerefined oils are obtained by treating refined oils in processes similar to those used to obtain the refined oils. These rerefined oils are also known as reclaimed or reprocessed oils and often are additionally processed by techniques for removal of spent additives and oil breakdown products.
  • Lubricating oil base stocks derived from the hydroisomerization of wax may also be used, either alone or in combination with the aforesaid natural and/or synthetic base stocks.
  • Such wax isomerate oil is produced by the hydroisomerization of natural or synthetic waxes or mixtures thereof over a hydroisomerization catalyst. Natural waxes are typically the slack waxes recovered by the solvent dewaxing of mineral oils; synthetic waxes are typically the wax produced by the Fischer-Tropsch process. The resulting isomerate product is typically subjected to solvent dewaxing and fractionation to recover various fractions having a specific viscosity range.
  • Wax isomerate is also characterized by possessing very high viscosity indices, generally having a VI of at least 130, preferably at least 135 or higher and, following dewaxing, a pour point of about -20° C or lower.
  • the additives of the present invention are especially useful as components in many different lubricating oil compositions.
  • the additives can be included in a variety of oils with lubricating viscosity, including natural and synthetic lubricating oils and mixtures thereof.
  • the additives can be included in crankcase lubricating oils for spark-ignited and compression-ignited internal combustion engines.
  • the compositions can also be used in gas engine lubricants, turbine lubricants, automatic transmission fluids, gear lubricants, compressor lubricants, metal-working lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and other lubricating oil and grease compositions.
  • the additives can also be used in motor fuel compositions.
  • reaction media are refluxed until 3.7 mL of water is removed and the infrared analysis of a sampled product shows that all the anhydride has been converted to succinhydrazide.
  • the reaction media are now cooled to room temperature and placed on a Roto-Evaporator to remove the toluene solvent.
  • the reaction product is now filtered through a bed of Celite filter-aid to yield 33 grams of a clear yellow liquid.
  • reaction media are refluxed until water is no longer removed and the infrared analysis of a sampled product shows all the anhydride has been converted to succinhydrazide.
  • the reaction media are now cooled to room temperature and placed on a Roto-Evaporator to remove the toluene solvent.
  • the reaction product is now filtered through a bed of Celite filter-aid to yield 18.4 grams of a clear yellow liquid.
  • Linear dodecenyl succinhydrazide, branched dodecenyl succinhydrazide, N-phenyl dodecyl succinhydrazide, and branched octadecenyl succinhydrazide are all prepared using the procedures described above.
  • the anti-wear properties of the alkyl-succinhydrazides of the present invention at a level of 1.0 wt% in a fully formulated SAE 5W-20 GF-3 motor oil formulation were determined in the Four-Ball Wear Test under the ASTM D 4172 test conditions.
  • the fully formulated lubricating oils tested also contained 1 weight percent cumene hydroperoxide to help simulate the environment within a running engine.
  • the additives were tested for effectiveness in a motor oil formulation (See description in Table 2) and compared to identical formulations with and without any zinc dialkyldithiophosphate. In Table 3, the numerical value of the test results (Average Wear Scar Diameter, mm) decreases with an increase in effectiveness.
  • the temperature is ramped over 15 minutes to 50° C, where it dwells for 15 minutes.
  • the temperature is then ramped over 15 minutes to 100° C, where it dwells for 45 minutes.
  • a third temperature ramp over 15 minutes to 150° C is followed by a final dwell at 150° C for 15 minutes.
  • the total length of the test is 2 hours.
  • the wear scar diameter on the 6 mm ball is measured using a Leica StereoZoom6® Stereomicroscope and a Mitutoyo 164 series Digimatic Head.
  • the fully formulated lubricating oils tested contained 1 wt. % cumene hydroperoxide to help simulate the environment within a running engine.
  • the test additive was blended at 1.0 wt.
