Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to lubricating oil compositions for marine engines that are designed for use with varying fuel sources.
  • 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.
  • Low-speed diesel engines are unique in size and method of operation. The engines themselves are massive, the output of these engines can reach as high as 100,000 brake horsepower with engine revolutions of 60 to about 200 revolutions per minute.
  • a low-speed diesel engine operates on the two-stroke cycle and is typically a direct-coupled and direct-reversing engine of crosshead construction, with a diaphragm and one or more stuffing boxes separating the power cylinders from the crankcase to prevent combustion products from entering the crankcase and mixing with the crankcase oil.
  • Marine two-stroke diesel cylinder lubricants must meet performance demands in order to comply with severe operating conditions required for more modern larger bore, two-stroke cross-head engines which are run at high outputs and severe loads and higher temperatures of the cylinder liner. The complete separation of the crankcase from the combustion zone has led persons skilled in the art to lubricate the combustion chamber and the crankcase with different lubricating oils.
  • 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.
  • 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 of 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 sulfur content of a fuel the higher the TBN a marine lubricant must have. This is why lubricating 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.
  • excess of overbased detergent present in the marine diesel cylinder lubricant creates a significant excess of basic sites and a risk of destabilization of the micelles of unused overbased detergent, which contain insoluble metallic salts.
  • the optimization of the cylinder lubrication of a slow-speed two-stroke engine then requires the selection of the lubricant with the TBN adapted to the fuel and to the operating conditions of the engine.
  • This optimization has challenges as it reduces the flexibility of operation of the engine and requires a significant degree of technical expertise during ship operation in defining the conditions under which the switching from one type of lubricant to the other must be carried out.
  • 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 invention further relates to the use of a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine to deliver basicity to a lubricant while reducing and/or limiting detrimental effects
  • WO 2010/107882 A relates to anthranilate esters and their use in lubricants, such as engine oils, for delivering an ash-free base to a lubricant in the form of a basic amine additive, without adversely impacting seal compatibility and/or degradation.
  • EP 2 319 904 A discloses tetra-alkylated phenylenediamine compounds useful as ashless TBN sources for lubricating oil compositions that are compatible with fluoroelastomeric engine seal materials and meet copper corrosion requirements, and lubricating oil compositions containing such phenylenediamine compounds.
  • EP 3 020 790 A describes low sulfur marine distillate fuel trunk piston diesel engine lubricating oil compositions comprising, inter alia, a combination of overbased detergents, and aminic or phenolic type antioxidants.
  • EP 2 518 134 A provides a cylinder lubricating oil composition for a crosshead-type diesel engine comprising, inter alia, a base oil having an aromatic content of 8.5 percent by mass or more, an alkaline earth metal phenate in an amount of 0.005 mole/kg or more on the basis of phenate soap content, and an aminic antioxidant in an amount of 0.1 to 5 percent by mass.
  • 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 5 to 100; and further wherein the TBN contribution of the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine to TBN of the lubricant composition is greater than 30%; and wherein the non-sulfur containing amine is selected from a diphenylamine, a N-phenylnaphthylamine, or a dinaphthylamine.
  • a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine in a marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition
  • a marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition comprising a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity to increase the oxidation stability of the marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition, as determined by ASTM D-6186, by at least 5%, when compared to a marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition substantially deficient of any non-sulfur containing aromatic amine, wherein the contribution of the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine to the TBN of the marine diesel cylinder lubricant oil composition having the increased oxidation stability is greater than 30%, wherein the TBN is as determined by ASTM D2896, and wherein the marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition substantially deficient of any non-sulfur containing aromatic amine includes a non-sulfur containing aromatic amine in an amount of less than 0.5 wt%.
  • Preferred embodiments are set out in the dependent claims.
  • 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 present disclosure 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 diarylamines, alkylated diphenylamines, phenyl- ⁇ -naphthylamines, phenyl- ⁇ -naphthylamines and alkylated ⁇ -naphthylamines.
  • aminic antioxidants include straight-chain or branched dialkyldiphenylamines such as p,p'-dinonyl-diphenylamine; p,p'-dioctyldiphenylamine; p,p'-di- ⁇ -methylbenzyl-diphenylamine; N-p-butylphenyl-N-p'-octylphenylamine; monoalkyldiphenylamines, such as mono-t-butyldiphenylamine and mono-octyldiphenylamine; bis(dialkylphenyl) amines, such as di-(2,4-diethylphenyl)amine and di(2-ethyl-4-nonylphenyl)amine; alkylphenyl-1-naphthylamines, such as octylphenyl-1-naphthylamine andn-t-dodecylphenyl
  • the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine of the present invention is a diarylamine. In one embodiment, the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine of the present invention is an alkylated diphenylamine. In one particular embodiment, the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine of the present invention is dialkyldiphenylamine.
  • the non-sulfur containing aromatic amine of the present invention will typically have TBN, as measured according to standard ASTM D-2896, of 100 to 600 mg KOH/g, preferably 100 to 300 mg KOH/g, preferably 100 to 200 mg KOH/g, preferably 120 to 500 mg KOH/g, more preferably 120 to 300 mg KOH/g and more preferably 120 to 250 mg KOH/g on an actives, oil free, basis.
