Definitions

  • Diesel engines may generally be classified as low-speed, medium-speed, or high-speed engines, with the low-speed variety being used for the largest, deep draft marine vessels and certain other industrial applications such as power generation applications.
  • the cylinders are lubricated on a total loss basis with the cylinder oil being injected separately on each cylinder, often into quills, by means of lubricators positioned around the cylinder liner. Oil is distributed to the lubricators by means of pumps, which are, in modern engine designs, often actuated to apply the oil directly onto the rings to reduce wastage of the oil.
  • the typical use of sulfur-containing fuels for operation of these engines creates the need for lubricants with high detergency and neutralizing capability even though the oils are exposed to thermal and other stresses only for short periods of time.
  • Residual fuels commonly used in these engines can contain significant quantities of sulfur, which, in the combustion process, combine with water to form sulfuric acid, the presence of which leads to corrosive wear.
  • sulfuric acid the presence of which leads to corrosive wear.
  • areas around the cylinder liners and piston rings can be corroded and worn by the acid. Therefore, it is important for diesel engine lubricating oils to have the ability to resist such corrosion and wear.
  • one of the primary functions of a marine diesel cylinder lubricant is to neutralize sulfur-based acidic components of sulfur-containing fuel combusted.
  • This neutralization has typically been accomplished by the inclusion in the marine diesel cylinder lubricant of basic species such as overbased metallic detergents.
  • An oil's neutralization capacity is characterized by its basicity and is measured by its Total Base Number (TBN).
  • the TBN is a standard criterion making it possible to adjust the basicity o the cylinder oils to the sulfur content of the fuel used, in order to be able to neutralize all of the sulfur contained in the fuel.
  • the higher the sulf r content of a fuel the higher the TBN a marine lubricant must have. This is why l ubricating oils having TBNs varying from 5 to 150 mg KOH/g are found in the marine market.
  • the basicity is provided by overbased detergents which are overbased using metallic carbonates.
  • the present invention relates to a marine diesel cylinder lubricant composition, having a source of ashless base, which can ensure good lubrication of the cylinder of a marine engine and can accommodate the constraints of variations in fuel type and fuel sulfur levels.
  • the present in vention further relates to the use of a non-sul fur containing aromatic amine to deliver basicity to a lubricant while reducing and. or limiting detrimental effects.
  • a marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition which comprises (a) a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity, and (b) a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine having a total base number of from about 100-600 mg KOH/g; wherein the marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition has a TBN of about 5 to about 100; and further wherein the TBN contribution of the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine to TBN of the lubricant composition is greater than about 30%.
  • a marine diesel cylinder lubricant composition comprising (a) a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity, (b) a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine having a total base number of from about 100-600 mg KOH/g, and (c) one or more polyalkenyl succinimide dispersants, wherein the polyalkenyl substituent is derived from a polyalkene group having a number average molecular weight of from about 1500 to about 3000; wherein the marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition has a TBN of about 5 to about 100; and further wherein the TBN contribution of the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine to TBN of the lubricant composition is greater than about 30%.
  • the present invention is based on the surprising discovery that the lubricant composition of this invention advantageously improves oxidation, detergency and dispersancy performance of a marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition used in a two-stroke crosshead marine diesel engine. Cylinder oils that have high oxidation stability not in bulk fluid but rather in thin film conditions will exhibit a smaller viscosity increase, and anti-scuffing performance.
  • the invention further relates to the use of a non- sulfur containing aromatic amine, in an amount providing greater than about 30% of the TBN contribution of a marine diesel cylinder lubricant, the use being to reduce the rate of depletion of basicity (loss of BN) as determined by ASTM D2896 and provide ashless TBN to the lubricant composition with relatively little impact on seal material which can be used in the engine lubricating systems or the lubricant handling systems.
  • a non- sulfur containing aromatic amine in an amount providing greater than about 30% of the TBN contribution of a marine diesel cylinder lubricant, the use being to reduce the rate of depletion of basicity (loss of BN) as determined by ASTM D2896 and provide ashless TBN to the lubricant composition with relatively little impact on seal material which can be used in the engine lubricating systems or the lubricant handling systems.
  • non-sulfur containing aromatic amines are an alternative to ash containing over-based metallic detergents, as a source of BN for the lubricant.
  • the present invention therefore relates to a marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition which comprises (a) a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity, and (b) a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine having a total base number of from about 100- 600 mg KOH/g; wherein the marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition has a TBN of about 5 to about 100; and further wherein the TBN contribution of the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine to TBN of the lubricant composition is greater than about 30%.
  • the TBN provided by the non- sulfur containing aromatic amine represents at least 30%, or at least 35%, or at least 40% of the TBN of said marine diesel cylinder lubricant.
  • the marine diesel cylinder lubricant is used for lubrication of a marine 2-stroke engine operated using low sulfur fuel which comprises less than 1.0 wt. % sulfur, or less than 0.5 wt. % sulfur, or less than 0.1 wt. % sulfur.
  • the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine compounds are known as aminic antioxidants which are typically used at lower concentrations in marine diesel cylinder lubricants, since cylinders are lubricated on a total loss basis with the cylinder oil.
  • aminic antioxidants which may be conveniently used include diary lam ines, alkylated diphenylamines, phenyl-a- naphthylamines. phenyl-(3-naphthylamines and alkylated a-naphthylamines.

  • Total Base Number refers to the level of alkalinity in an oil sample, which indicates the ability of the composition to continue to neutralize corrosive acids, in accordance with ASTM Standard No. D2896 or equivalent procedure.
  • the test measures the change in electrical conductivity, and the results are expressed as mg-KOH/g (the equivalent number of milligrams of KOH needed to neutralize 1 gram of a product).

  • the Oxidation Onset Temperature is the temperature at which the oxidation of the test oil starts.
  • the Oxidation Induction Time is the time at which the oxidation of the test oil starts. A higher oxidation induction time means better performance.
  • the oxidation reaction results in an exothermic reaction which is clearly shown by the heat flow.
  • the Oxidation Induction Time is calculated to evaluate the thin film oxidation stability of the test oil.
  • Example 1 and Comparative Example A were formulated to 25 BN, SAE 50 viscosity grade fully formulated marine cylinder lubricating oil compositions comprising majority amount of Esso 600N Group I base oil, Esso 2500 brightstock, a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine, foam inhibitor and additional additiv es as indicated in Table 1 .
  • the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine used in the examples was a nonyl substituted diphenylamine.
  • This additive contained 3.5 wt. % Nitrogen, had a TBN of about 1 35 mgKOH/g and no diluent oil.
  • the test oils were ev compacted using the DSC Oxidation Test. The results are set forth in Table 1 below.
  • Oil concentrate of a high overbased calcium sulfonate having a TBN of 420 mg OH/g Combination of an oil concentrate of a medium overbased calcium salicylate having a TBN of 150 mg KOH/g and an oil concentrate of a medium overbased sulfurized calcium phenate detergent having TBN of 1 16 mg KOH/g
  • Cylinder oils that have high oxidation stability not in bulk fluid but rather in thin film conditions will exhibit a smaller viscosity increase, a high spreadability and greater anti-scuffing performance.
