Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of lubricating a driveline device with a lubricating composition comprising hydrocarbyl-capped polyoxyalkylene polyol.
  • driveline power transmitting devices such as gears or transmissions, especially axle fluids and manual transmission fluids (MTFs)
  • MTFs manual transmission fluids
  • One of the important parameters influencing performance is lubricant viscosity.
  • Lubricants capable of performing at lower viscosity typically provide increased fuel economy (thus improving CAFÉ efficiency).
  • lower viscosity fluids also contribute to elevated gear and transmission operating temperatures, which are believed to reduce fuel economy.
  • increasing lubricant viscosity is believed to provide better wear protection and durability to gears and transmissions.
  • the lubricating composition is capable of imparting at least one of an acceptable co-efficient of friction, viscosity index (VI), oil blend thickening capabilities, shear stability, good low temperature viscosity performance, reduced operating temperatures, acceptable wear performance, acceptable durability, or acceptable fuel economy.
  • VI viscosity index
  • US Patent 4,370,247 discloses the use of a polyalkylene glycol to reduce power loss due to a frictional decrease.
  • European Patent Application 460 317 discloses gear oil a lubricating composition containing a polyalkylene glycol lubricant and at least one sulphur-containing antiwear or extreme pressure agent.
  • the polyalkylene glycol is prepared using water or monohydric alcohols.
  • the monohydric alcohols listed include methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol, isobutanol, neopentanol and decanoL
  • the examples disclose Emkarox® series poly(ethylene-propylene) glycols available from Uniquema that are believed to be made using a butanol initiator.
  • DE 2806133 discloses a lubricant consisting essentially of a polyoxyalkylene glycol diether having a specific formula. DE 2806133 does not disclose the hydrocarbyl-capped polyoxyalkylene polyol required by the method of this invention.
  • the invention provides a method of lubricating a driveline device with a lubricating composition comprising:
  • the lubricating composition further comprises a non-phosphorus extreme pressure agent, or mixtures thereof.
