Definitions

  • All lubricating oil systems contain some air. It can be found in four phases: free air, dissolved air, entrained air and foam. Free air is trapped in a system, such as an air pocket in a hydraulic line. Dissolved air is in solution with the oil and is not visible to the naked eye. Foam is a collection of closely packed bubbles surrounded by thin films of oil that collect on the surface of the oil.
  • Air entrainment is a small amount of air in the form of extremely small bubbles (generally less than 1mm in diameter) dispersed throughout the bulk of the oil. Agitation of lubricating oil with air in equipment, such as bearings, couplings, gears, pumps, and oil return lines, may produce a dispersion of finely divided air bubbles in the oil. If the residence time in the reservoir is too short to allow the air bubbles to rise to the oil surface, a mixture of air and oil will circulate through the lubricating oil system. This may result in an inability to maintain oil pressure (particularly with centrifugal pumps), incomplete oil films in bearings and gears, and poor hydraulic system performance or failure. Air entrainment is treated differently than foam, and is most often a completely separate problem.
  • a partial list of potential effects of air entrainment include: pump cavitation, spongy, erratic operation of hydraulics, loss of precision control; vibrations, oil oxidation, component wear due to reduced lubricant viscosity, equipment shut down when low oil pressure switches trip, "micro-dieseling” due to ignition of the bubble sheath at the high temperatures generated by compressed air bubbles, safety problems in turbines if overspeed devices do not react quickly enough, and loss of head in centrifugal pumps.
  • Antifoamants including silicone additives help produce smaller bubbles in the bulk of the oil. In stagnant systems, the combination of smaller bubbles and greater sheath density can cause serious air entrainment problems. Turbine oil systems with quiescent reservoirs of several thousand gallons may have air entrainment problems with as little as a half a part per million silicone.
  • EP0761805 discloses lubricating compositions with improved antiwear and antifoaming properties.
  • this invention satisfies that need.
  • the present invention relates to the use of a lubricating oil having favorable air release properties. More particularly, this invention relates to the use of a lubricating oil comprising at least two base stocks with the viscosity difference between the first and second base stock being greater than 96 cSt, Kv100°C and essentially no VI improvers in a lubricating oil system containing free air, dissolved air, entrained air or foam to provide an air release of less than 20 minutes time to 0.1% air in a ASTM D3427 test, wherein the first base stock is present in an amount of at least 5 and no more than 90 weight percent and has a viscosity greater than 100 cSt at Kv100°C, and wherein the second base stock is present in an amount of at least 5 and no more than 90 weight percent and has a viscosity less than 10 cSt at Kv100°C.
  • the present invention also provides such uses as defined in any of accompanying claims 2 to 10.
  • the lubricating oil provides an air release time to 0.2% air in the ASTM D3427 test to be 17 minutes or less. Also, a pour point reduction in the ASTM D97 test of 6°C is observed.
  • Kinematic Viscosity is determined by measuring the time for a volume of liquid to flow under gravity through a calibrated glass capillary viscometer. Viscosity is typically measured in centistokes (cSt, or mm 2 /s) units.
  • cSt centistokes
  • the ISO viscosity classification which is typically cited for industrial lubes of finished lubricants based on viscosities observed at 40°C. Base stock oils used to blend finished oils, are generally described using viscosities observed at 100°C.
  • the novel lubricant formulation comprises at least two base stocks.
  • the first base stock comprising synthetic oil with a viscosity greater than 150 cST, KV100°C.
  • the second base stock comprises oil with a viscosity less than 10 cST, KV100°C.
  • the second base stock comprises lubricant oil with a viscosity of less than 6 cSt, Kv100°C.
  • the viscosity of the second lubricant should be at least 2 cSt, Kv100°C. Even more preferable is a viscosity of between 3 and 5 cSt, Kv100°C.
  • a more specific example embodiment is the combination of high viscosity index PAO 150 (150 cSt, Kv100°C) and a low viscosity Poly Alpha Olefin ("PAO") including PAOs with a viscosity of less than 6 cSt, Kv100°C and more preferably with a viscosity between 2 and 4 (2 cSt or 4 cSt, Kv100°C) and even more preferably with a small amount of esters or alkylated aromatics.
  • the esters including esters or alkylated aromatics can be used as an additional base stock or as a co-base stock with either the first or second base stocks for additive solubility.
  • High viscosity index PAO 150 is a high viscosity synthetic lubricant oil and is a commercially available lubricant sold by ExxonMobil Corporation in Fairfax Virginia while esters and PAOs are commercially available commodity lubricants.
  • the preferred ester is an alkyl adipate.
  • Table 1 is a table showing the air release benefit based of the fully formulated subject oil using the extreme viscosities of the blended bases stocks and a typical ISO 320 fully formulated commercially available gear oil product.
  • the current invention is a lubricating oil with a first base oil of at least 300 cSt, kv100°C and a second base oil of less than 10 cSt, kv100°C.
  • This invention was compared against a typical ISO 320 gear oil with a first base oil of 100 cSt, kv100°C and a second base oil of less than 6 cSt, kv100°C.

Also, the low temperature performance of these novel formulations shows significant improvement as demonstrated in the ASTM D97 and D5133 data shown in Table 2.
