Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of nucleating agents to improve the cold flowability of mineral oil distillates containing detergent additives, as well as the mineral oil distillates additive.
  • paraffin-rich crude oils are extracted and processed, which consequently also lead to paraffin-rich fuel oils.
  • the paraffins contained in particular in middle distillates can crystallize on lowering the temperature of the oil and partially agglomerate with the inclusion of oil. This crystallization and agglomeration can cause blockages of the filters in engines and firing systems, especially in winter, which prevents safe metering of the fuels and may possibly lead to a complete interruption of the fuel supply.
  • the paraffin problem is also exacerbated by the environmental reasons to reduce the sulfur content increasing hydrodesulfurization of fuel oils, which leads to an increased proportion of cold-critical paraffins in the fuel oil.
  • middle distillates are often added chemical additives, so-called cold flow improvers or flow improvers, modify the crystal structure and Agglomerationsne noticed the precipitated paraffins, so that the so-additive oils still pump or use at temperatures, often more than 20 ° C. lower than non-additized oils.
  • cold flow improver oil-soluble copolymers of ethylene and unsaturated esters, oil-soluble polar nitrogen compounds and / or comb polymers are usually used. In addition, however, other additions have been proposed.
  • detergent additives are being developed with ever increasing effectiveness. In addition, they are often used in very high dosage rates. It is reported that this reduces, for example, in diesel fuels, the specific consumption and the performance of the engines is increased.
  • these additives often have negative effects on the cold flowability of middle distillates and in particular on the efficacy of known cold flow improvers. Especially with middle distillates with low boiling point and simultaneously low aromatic content, it is often difficult or even impossible to adjust in the presence of modern detergent additives using conventional flow improvers a satisfactory cold flow behavior. For example, the addition of detergent additives often results in an antagonistic effect on the effectiveness of the added cold flow improvers.
  • the paraffin dispersion of the middle distillate, set by paraffin dispersants is impaired, without being able to be reconstituted by increased metering of paraffin dispersant.
  • the CFPP measured filterability with cold flow improvers additive oils is significantly reduced in the cold and can be compensated only by greatly increased dosage of the flow improver.
  • detergent additives which are derived from higher polyamines and those which are, for example, conditional have very high molecular weights by multiple alkylation and / or acylation of these polyamines.
  • those detergent additives whose hydrophobic residue is derived from sterically hindered olefins and / or higher molecular weight and / or polyfunctionalized poly (olefins).
  • WO-03/042337 teaches middle distillates with a maximum of 0.05% by weight of sulfur containing fatty acid esters of alkoxylated polyols having at least 3 OH groups (A) and at least one cold flow improver (B), said cold flow improver comprising at least one copolymer of ethylene and one or more ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid esters having an ethylene content of 60 to 90 mol%.
  • the invention thus relates to the use of at least one oil-soluble, acting as Nucleator for paraffin crystallization compound B) selected from comb polymers carrying alkyl side chains with a length of at least 20 carbon atoms, to improve the response to the lowering of Pour Point and CFPP Value as well as the improvement of the paraffin dispersion of mineral oil flow improvers C) other than B) in middle distillates containing at least one ashless nitrogen-containing detergent additive A) which is an oil-soluble, amphiphilic compound comprising at least one alkyl or alkenyl radical, which is bonded to a polar group, wherein the alkyl or alkenyl radical 10 to 500 carbon atoms and the polar group comprises 2 or more nitrogen atoms, wherein the ashless nitrogen-containing detergent additive A) comprises a polar moiety derived from polyamines of the formula (R 9 ) 2 N- [AN (R 9 )] q - (R 9 ) wherein each R 9 independently of one another represents hydrogen, an al
  • the improvement in the response of cold flow improvers C) according to the invention is understood to improve at least one cold property of middle distillates adjusted or adjustable by cold flow improver C) and adversely affected by the addition of a detergent additive A) by addition of a compound B) acting as a nucleating agent for the paraffin crystallization , Specifically, by adding the nucleating agent B), the cold property set or adjustable without the presence of the detergent additive A) by the cold flow improver C) is achieved.
  • Cold properties are understood here individually or in combination as the pour point, the cold filter plugging point, the low-temperature flow, and the paraffin dispersion of middle distillates.
  • Particularly affected is the response of flow improvers in middle distillates containing more than 10 ppm of a nitrogen-containing detergent additive A), especially more than 20 ppm and especially more than 40 ppm such as 50 to 2000 ppm of nitrogen-containing detergent additive A).
  • the additives contain, based on one part by weight of the nitrogen-containing detergent additive A) from 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, and in particular from 0.05 to 5 parts by weight, for example from 0.1 to 3 parts by weight of the oil-soluble compound B) acting as nucleator for the paraffin crystallization.
  • Ashless means that the additives in question essentially consist only of elements which form gaseous reaction products during combustion.
  • the additives consist essentially only of the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen.
  • ashless additives are substantially free of metals and metal salts.
  • Nucleators are understood to be compounds which initiate the crystallization of paraffins on cooling a paraffin-containing oil. They thus shift the beginning of the paraffin crystallization of the oil additized with them, which can be determined, for example, by measuring the cloud point or the Wax Appearance Temperature (WAT), to higher temperatures. These are compounds that are soluble in the oil above the cloud point and begin to crystallize just above the temperature of the paraffin saturation and then serve as seed for the crystallization of the paraffins. Thus, they prevent over-saturation of the oil with paraffins and lead to crystallization near the saturation concentration. This leads to the formation of a multiplicity of equally small paraffin crystals.
  • WAT Wax Appearance Temperature
  • paraffin crystallization thus begins at a higher temperature than in non-additized oil. This can be determined, for example, by measuring the WAT by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) with a slow cooling of the oil at, for example, -2 K / min.
