Definitions
- the present invention relates to improvers of the viscosity index of the lubricating compositions, especially for motor vehicles.
- the invention relates more particularly to a star copolymer that can be used as a lubricant viscosity index improver of lubricating compositions and lubricant compositions thus obtained that can be used in particular for engines, gearboxes or vehicle bridge.
- the conditions of use of gasoline engines and diesel engines include extremely short journeys as well as long journeys.
- the emptying intervals are also very variable, from 5,000 km for some small diesel engines to up to 100,000 km on modern commercial diesel engines.
- the lubricating compositions used in these vehicles must therefore have improved properties and performance.
- the lubricating gearbox or gearbox compositions must satisfy numerous requirements, particularly related to driving comfort (perfect gearshift, silent operation, trouble-free operation, high reliability), to the service life of the assembly (reduction of wear during the cold run, no deposits and high thermal stability, safety of lubrication at high temperatures, stable viscosity situation and absence of shear loss , long service life) as well as the consideration of environmental aspects (lower fuel consumption, reduced lubricant consumption, low noise, easy evacuation). These are requirements for lubricating compositions for manual gearboxes and axle gears.
- the viscosity of the lubricating compositions is of all importance.
- the desired lubricating compositions must have a high viscosity index in order to avoid cold energy losses due to friction but also to keep a sufficient lubricant film on the lubricated elements hot.
- a high viscosity index thus guarantees a lower drop in viscosity when the temperature increases.
- viscosity index improvers VI improvers in English are generally added to the lubricating compositions.
- These viscosity improvers are generally polymers, especially of poly (alkyl) methacrylate type, olefin copolymers, or hydrogenated styrene / diene copolymers.
- these polymers may have insufficient VI, insufficient engine cleanliness performance, mechanical degradation or high costs related in particular to the need to use these polymers at high levels.
- these polymer chemistries do not exhibit any particular character or particular properties when cold. There is therefore an interest in providing novel VI improvers with high VI and improved cold properties.
- VI improvers that can be absorbed to the surfaces to be lubricated and thus create a film thickness favorable to the protection of the surfaces to be lubricated and the limitation of friction.
