Description

Novel low viscosity functional fluid composition
The present invention relates to a low viscosity functional fluid composition comprising (A) from 15 to 90% by weight, based on the weight of the total composition, of one or more alkoxy glycol borate esters having the general formula (I)
[R1-0-(CH2CH2-0)n]3B (I) wherein R1 is a Ci- to C4-alkyl radical or a mixture of such radicals and value of from 2 to 6, from 5 to 80% by weight, based on the weight of the total composition, of or more alkoxy glycol components having the general formula (II)
R2-0-(CH2CH2-0)m-H (II) wherein R2 is a Ci- to Cs-alkyl radical or a mixture of such radicals and m has a value of from 2 to 6, R2 and/or m being different or identical to R1 and/or n, respectively, from 0.1 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of an additive package comprising one or more additives with corrosion inhibition action, wherein at least one of the additives contained in the additive package of component (C) is selected from alkylamine ethoxylates.
The said low viscosity functional fluid composition is useful in a variety of applications and in particular as a brake fluid, especially for new electronic or automated anti-lock brake systems which require lower viscosity fluids for satisfactory operation at low temperatures.
Functional fluid compositions based on borate esters are well known in the art. To be usefuel for example as DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 brake fluids, these borate ester based compositions must meet stringent physical properties and performance requirements particularly with respect to minimum dry equilibrium reflux boiling point ("ERBP"), minimum wet equilibrium reflux boiling point ("WERBP") and maximum low temperature kinematic viscosity (e.g. determined at -40°C) while maintaining adequate resistance to corrosion, stability and meeting other physical property requirements such as pH, reserve alkalinity and rubber swell.
WO 00/65001 describes hydraulic fluids comprising alkoxy glycol borate esters, alkoxy glycols and corrosions inhibitors, further containing cyclic carboxylic acid derivatives. WO 02/3871 1 describes low viscosity functional fluid compositions comprising alkoxy glycol borate esters, alkoxy glycol components and additives such as corrosion inhibitors, wherein the alkoxylation degrees of the alkoxy glycol borate esters and the alkoxy glycols are restricted to a certain narrow pattern.
There is a strong demand for improved high performance hydraulic fluid compositions and brake fluids having low temperature viscosity while meeting or exceeding at the same time the minimum ERBP and especially the WERBP temperature requirements as fulfilled by the hydraulic fluid compositions and brake fluids described in the art.
According to the present invention, the above-defined functional fluid composition has been found which exhibits superior values of ERBP and of WERBP and for low temperature kinematic viscosity while maintaining excellent resistance to corrosion, high stability and meeting other physical property requirements such as pH, reserve alkalinity and rubber swell. Especially very high WERBP values are achieved. Moreover, kinematic viscosity value at very low temperatures below -40°C, e.g. at -50°C, are superior compared to functional fluid compositions of the art. The alkylamine ethoxylates as part of component (C) and their interaction with the other components and additives of the present functional fluid composition are deemed to be responsible for the superior performance and especially for the very high WERBP values. The alkylamine residue in the said alkylamine ethoxylates may be a secondary or preferably a primary aliphatic monoamine which is capable of being ethoxylated.
Usually secondary or preferably primary aliphatic monoamines are used, however, polyamines with with at least one secondary and/or primary amino group which is capable of being ethoxylated may also be used. The alkyl residues to the nitrogen atom normally comprise saturated linear or branched alkyl groups, however, unsaturated linear or branched alkyl residues or saturated or unsaturated cycloalkyl residues may also be comprised by the term "alkyl".
In a preferred embodiment, the said alkylamine ethoxylates comprise at least one linear or branched C3 to C20 alkyl chain, preferably at least one linear or branched C6 to Ci3 alkyl chain, more preferably at least one linear or branched C7 to C12 alkyl chain, most preferably at least one linear or branched Cs to Cn alkyl chain. Preferably, the term "alkyl chain" here means saturated and non-cyclic hydrocarbon residues. The alkylamine ethoxylates may also comprise mixtures of such alkyl chains, for example a mixture of homologue alkyl residues, depending on the specific technical or natural origin of the alkylamines used.

Such alkyl residues may be derived entirely from petrochemical production, for example technical Cs-C-is alkyl mixtures, 2-ethylhexyl or 2-propylheptyl, or may entirely or partially be based on renewable raw materials, for example fatty amines such as stearyl amine, oleyl amine or tallow amine may be used as the basis for the alkylamine ethoxylates. The degree of ethoxylation is usually from 1 to 35 EO units per alkylamine molecule, i.e. the at least on alkylamine ethoxylate comprises from 1 to 35 EO units, preferably from 1.5 to 15 EO units, more preferable from 1 .8 to 9 EO units, most preferably from 2 to 6 EO units. The said ethoxylation degree is a statistical value, i.e the alkylamine ethoxylates have normally to be regardes as mixtures of species (homologues) with different numbers of EO units.
In an especially preferred embodiment of the instant invention, the at least one alkylamine ethoxylate comprises at least on linear C3 to C20 alkyl chain and from 1 to 35 EO units; more preferably the at least one alkylamine ethoxylate comprises at least on linear Ce to C13 alkyl chain and from 1 .5 to 15 EO units; most preferably the at least one alkylamine ethoxylate comprises at least one linear C7 to C12 alkyl chain and from 1 .8 to 9 EO units, especially the at least one alkylamine ethoxylate comprises at least one linear Cs to Cn alkyl chain and from 2 to 6 EO units.

Of course, mixtures of the above additives with corrosion inhibition action can be used.
Using alkylamines and/or alkanolamines as compounds with corrosion inhibition action in the additive package of component (C) often results in an additional decrease in viscosity of the present functional fluid composition.
Besides the alkylamine ethoxylates and possibly the additives with corrosion inhibition action, further customary additives may be present in the additive package of component (C), for example stabilizers such as pH stabilizers, antioxidants such as phenol- thiazine and phenolic compounds, e.g. hydroxyanisol and bisphenol A, defoamers and dyes.
Preferably, the additive package of component (C) which includes one or more alkylamine ethoxylates consists or consists essentially of a major portion of additives with corrosion inhibition action and a minor portion of additives with antioxidant action and possibly of defoamers and dyes.

(C) from 0.1 to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.5 to 7% by weight, more preferably from 1 to 4% by weight, most preferably from 1.5 to 2.5% by weight.
All % values for (A), (B) and (C) above refer to the total composition of the present functional fluid composition, or - if other materials than components (A), (B) and (C), e.g. the above-mentioned diluents and/or lubricants, are present - to the total weight of (A) plus (B) plus (C). The % values for (A), (B) and (C) add up in each case to 100% by weight.
The functional fluid composition of the present invention exhibits superior behavior in ERBP and WERBP temperature and simultaneously in low temperature viscosity performance. Preferably, it exhibits a ERBP of at least 260°C, more preferably of at least 265°C, most preferably of at least 270°C, and/or a WERBP of at least 180°C, more preferably of at least 182°C, still more preferably of at least 184°C, most preferably of at least 187°C.

The functional fluid composition of the present invention exhibits a low temperature kinematic viscosity of preferably less than 4000 cSt, more preferably of less than 3000 cSt, most preferably less than 2600 cSt, each determined at a temperature of -50°C, whereas typical functional fluid compositions of the art exhibit low temperature kinematic viscosities in the region from about 4500 cSt to about 6000 cSt at -50°C. The low viscosity functional fluid composition of the present invention is especially useful as a brake fluid, for example for vehicles such as passenger cars and trucks, especially for new electronic or automated anti-lock brake systems which require lower viscosity fluids for satisfactory operation at low temperatures. Besides its superior behavior in ERBP and WERBP temperature and its low temperature viscosity performance, the functional fluid composition of the present invention exhibits a good corrosion protection, a good water compatibility, a mild pH value, a good stability with regard to low and high temperatures, a good oxidation stability, a good chemical stability, a good behavior towards rubber and elastomers and a good lubrication performance. The following examples are intended to demonstrate the behavior and performance of the low temperature functional fluid composition of the present invention without limiting it.
