Abstract

Certain NH sterically hindered amine compounds of the formula where R is a straight or branched alkyl group of from 7 to 17 carbon atoms and where n is a numeral from 6 to 18 are suitable for use as stabilizers in lubricant compositions. The sterically hindered amines are non-aggressive towards fluoroelastomer O-rings or seals.

Description

Lubricant Composition
The present invention relates to lubricant compositions stabilized against oxidative degradation via the incorporation of certain sterically hindered amine stabilizers. The lubricant compositions exhibit excellent results regarding seal swell. U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,073,278 and 5,273,669 teach the stabilization of lubricant compositions with a certain aromatic amine and at least one sterically hindered amine.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,268, 113 discloses lubricants stabilized by the addition of a sterically hindered amine and a phenol.
It is known to add stabilizers to lubricants based on mineral or synthetic oils in order to im- prove their performance characteristics. Antioxidants are of particular importance. Oxidative degradation of lubricants plays a significant role especially in motor oils because of the high temperatures prevailing in the combustion chambers of the engines and the presence, in addition to oxygen, of oxides of nitrogen which act as oxidation catalysts.
Hindered amine compounds are effective stabilizers for lubricants. However, they are gener- ally not employed due to detrimental effects such as seal swell.
The present invention relates to the stabilization of lubricant compositions with a specific class of hindered amine compounds. The present lubricant compositions are non-aggressive towards seals.
The present invention relates to a stabilized lubricant composition which comprises A mineral or a synthetic base oil or a mixture of a mineral and a synthetic base oil; and At least one sterically hindered amine compound of the formula
HN (H), where R is a straight or branched alkyl group of from 7 to 17 carbon atoms and n is a numeral from 6 to 18.
The alkyl group R is linear or branched and consist of for example 7, 8, 9, 10, 1 1 , 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 or 17 carbons. The numeral n is for example 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 or 18.
The sterically hindered amines are known and are prepared according to methods known in the art. For example, the present hindered amines are 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol esters of aliphatic carboxylic acids, for example the esters of lauric acid or stearic acid.
According to a preferred embodiment, the invention relates to compositions wherein the hindered amines of the formula
are present.
Lubricants according to the present invention are functional fluids, that is lubricants, hydraulic fluids or metal working fluids.
Lubricants are in particular mineral oil based (API classifications Groups I, II, III, Group IV including gas to liquid (GTL) oils) or synthetic base oils, such as is normally used for the production of lubricants. Synthetic oils may be, for example, esters of polycarboxylic acids or of polyols; they may also be aliphatic polyesters or poly-α-olefins, silicones, phosphoric acid esters or polalkylene glycols. The lubricant may also be a grease based on an oil and a thickener. Such lubricants are described, for example in D. Klamann "Schmierstoffe und art- verwandte Producte", Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1982.
Examples are lubricants and hydraulic fluids based on mineral oil or synthetic lubricants or hydraulic fluids, in particular those which are derivatives of carboxylic esters and which are used at temperatures of 2000C and above. Examples of synthetic lubricants embrace lubricants based on a diester of a dibasic acid with a monovalent alcohol, for example dioctyl sebacate or dinonyl adipate, a triester of trimethy- lolpropane with a monobasic acid or a mixture of such acids, for example trimethylolpropane tripelargonate, trimethylolpropane tricaprylate or mixtures of these, a tetraester of pentae- rythritol with a monobasic acid or with a mixture of such acids, for example pentaerythritol tetracaprylate, or a complex ester of monobasic and dibasic acids with polyhydric alcohols, for example a complex ester of trimethylolpropane with caprylic and sebacic acid or a mixture of these.
Particularly suitable are, besides mineral oils, for example poly-α-olefins, lubricants based on esters, or phosphates, glycols, polyglycols and polalkyene glycols and mixtures of these with water.
The sterically hindered amines of this invention are in particular non-aggressive toward elastomeric seals.
The seals are in particular a fluoropolymer elastomer used in O-rings and other goods. The "fluoroelastomers" are categorized under ASTM D1418 and ISO 1629 designation of FKM for example. The fluoroelastomers comprise copolymers of hexafluoropropylene (HFP) and vi- nylidene fluoride (VDF of VF2), terpolymers of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE), vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, perfluoromethylvinylether (PMVE), copolymers of TFE and propylene and copolymers of TFE, PMVE and ethylene. The fluorine content varies for example between about 66 to about 70% by weight.
FKM is fluoro rubber of the polymethylene type having substituent fluoro and perflouroalkyl or perfluoroalkoxy groups on the polymer chain.
Accordingly, a preferred subject of the invention is a stabilized lubricant composition which is in contact with a fluoroelastomer and which comprises A mineral or a synthetic base oil or a mixture of a mineral and a synthetic base oil and At least one sterically hindered amine compounds of the formula (I) or (II), where R is a straight or branched alkyl group of from 7 to 17 carbon atoms and n is a numeral from 6 to 18.
The sterically hindered amines according to this invention are admixed with the lubricants in an amount of about 0.01 to about 5% by weight, for example from about 0.05 to about 3% by weight, for instance from about 0.1 to about 2% by weight, based on the weight of the lubricant. - A -

Example
The superiority of the claimed sterically hindered amines over other similar sterically hindered amine additives is illustrated by the following example. A 5W-30 engine oil containing 0.08 %P is supplemented with sufficient sterically hindered amine additive to raise the total base number, as measured by ASTM D 4739 by two units. Amine additive A is added at a treat level of 1.0 weight percent and amine additive B is added at a treat level of 1.2%. The oils are stirred at 6O0C for one hour to insure homogeneity. The formulations are tested according to elastomer compatibility procedure CEC- L-39-T-96. The results of the CEC- L-39- T-96 testing of these formulations with an FKM fluorinated rubber are found below. Both amines affected the rubber elastomer.
