Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition.
  • a transmission i.e., a component of an automobile
  • fuel-saving methods of the transmission is lowering a viscosity of a lubricating oil.
  • the low-viscosity lubricating oil exhibits a low oil-film retention at high temperatures, thereby occasionally generating seizure, shortening a fatigue life and the like.
  • Patent Literature 1 reports a lubricating oil composition capable of maintaining a gear shifting performance for a long period of time, in which various additives are contained for optimization.
  • a kinematic viscosity of the lubricating oil composition is high and a fatigue life thereof when the viscosity is lowered has not been studied.
  • a lubricating oil composition having a viscosity index of about 150 to 250 is commercially available.
  • viscosity-index improvement has been demanded from the viewpoint of low-temperature startability.
  • a viscosity index of a lubricating oil composition disclosed in Patent Literature 2 is improved with polymethacrylate (PMA) as a viscosity index improver.

  • PAO poly-alpha-olefin
  • OCP olefin copolymer
  • the lubricating oil composition contains the viscosity index improver in order to increase the viscosity at high temperatures, it is feared that abrasion and fatigue are caused by a large decrease in the viscosity at the time of shearing (i.e., a decrease in shear stability) and a consequent decrease in oil-film formability. Moreover, since fatigue-life improvement and viscosity-index improvement are in inverse proportion to each other, the lubricating oil composition of Patent Literature 2 has a poor oil-film retention whereas having an improved viscosity index.
  • Patent Literatures 3 and 4 although OCP is blended in the lubricating oil composition, the lubricating oil composition does not exhibit the viscosity index that is equal to or exceeds the viscosity index of PAO. Thus, the viscosity-index improvement has not been studied. In other words, technique to improve the viscosity index while having a sufficient fatigue life has been neither realized nor studied.

  • Mineral oil-2 Mineral oil containing a sulfur content of 0.03 mass% or less and having a kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees C of 6.5 mm 2 /s and a kinematic viscosity at 40 degrees C of 37 mm 2 /s
  • PAO-1 PAO having a kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees C of 300 mm 2 /s
  • PAO-2 PAO having a kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees C of 1.8 mm 2 /s
  • PAO-3 PAO having a kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees C of 100 mm 2 /s
  • Ester Butoxyethyl oleate ester having a kinematic viscosity at
  • Table 1 shows that the kinematic viscosity at -40 degrees C was significantly decreased while the kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees C and the kinematic viscosity after shearing were sufficiently maintained in Examples of the invention. It is understood from Examples 2 and 3 that blending silicone significantly decreases the kinematic viscosity at -40 degrees C.
  • the invention is usable as a lubricating oil composition, particularly suitably usable as a lubricating oil for a transmission.
