Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of lubricating compositions for electric vehicles. More particularly, the present invention relates to the field of lubricating and cooling compositions for electric vehicles, in particular for cooling the battery of an electric vehicle.
- lubricating compositions also called “lubricating fluids”, for the main purposes of reducing the friction forces between the different parts of the vehicle's propulsion system. , especially between moving metal parts in engines.
- lubricating compositions are also effective in preventing premature wear or even damage to these parts, and in particular to their surface.
- Electric motors generate heat during operation. If the amount of heat generated is greater than the amount of heat normally dissipated to the environment, it is necessary to ensure engine cooling. Generally speaking, cooling is carried out on one or more heat-generating parts of the engine and/or heat-sensitive parts of the engine, in order to avoid reaching dangerous temperatures.
- This cooling can be done by direct cooling or indirect cooling. Due to the increasing power density of electric motors, it will be necessary to develop and improve the mode of direct cooling of the electric motor where the lubricating fluid from the transmission part will also be used to cool the hot parts of the electric motor.
- An example is the Tesla Model S vehicle, in which the lubricant from the gearbox also circulates in the hollow rotor of the electric motor to cool the stator coil heads via several oil jets.
- a lubricating composition is conventionally composed of one or more base oil(s), to which are generally associated several additives dedicated to stimulating the lubricating performance of the base oil, such as for example friction modifier additives.

- fluid 1 comprises 99% by weight of the base oil and 1% by weight of the anti-wear and fluid 2 comprises 95% by weight of the base oil and 5% by weight of anti-wear.
- Table 2 brings together the thermal conductivities at 30°C, 60°C and 90°C of the compositions tested. Thermal conductivity was measured according to ASTM D7896-19.
- Lubricating compositions were prepared by mixing the ingredients at a temperature of approximately 40° C., according to methods well known to those skilled in the art.
- the lubricating compositions which were prepared and tested are detailed in Table 3 below.
- the elemental phosphorus and sulfur contents were calculated based on the elemental contents in the ingredients and are also shown in Table 3 in ppm by weight.
- the base oils are group III base oils
- the phosphite polymer is identical to the phosphite polymer used in the example
- the phosphorus anti-wear is a tert-butylphenyl phosphate (not meeting the formula
- T antioxidant is an alkylated diphenylamine antioxidant
- T anti-corrosion is a tolytriazine
- the detergent is a calcium sulphonate overbased detergent
- the additive package contains a pour point improver and an anti-foam.
- the anti-wear properties of the additive of formula (I) were determined by the FZG A/8.3/90 method with a low load.
- the lubricating compositions described in Table 3 were subjected to the FZG A/8.3/90 method (according to standard ISO 14635-1). The results are shown in Table 3 above. At its phosphorus content, the Cil composition according to the invention has better anti-wear properties than the CCI composition.
