Description

composition lubrifiantelubricating composition

Le domaine de la présente invention est celui des compositions lubrifiantes contenant une huile de base minérale et destinées à être utilisés en tant qu’huiles de moteur pour améliorer la performance des moteurs.The field of the present invention is that of lubricating compositions containing a mineral base oil and intended for use as engine oils to improve the performance of engines.

Les huiles de moteur, compositions lubrifiantes contenant des huiles de base minérales, sont utilisées dans un moteur pour minimiser à froid les pertes énergétiques causées par des frottements dans le moteur et pour maintenir à chaud un film continu de lubrifiant sur les éléments lubrifiés du moteur. Il est important que la viscosité de la composition lubrifiante diminue le moins possible pendant le fonctionnement à chaud pour éviter la rupture du film lubrifiant. Pour assurer à la fois ces deux fonctions à froid et à chaud, il est souhaitable de disposer d’une composition lubrifiante qui présente la plus faible variation de viscosité avec la température. Comme un indice de viscosité élevé garantit une baisse moindre de la viscosité lorsque la température augmente, il est donc recherché des compositions lubrifiantes possédant un indice de viscosité élevé.Motor oils, lubricating compositions containing mineral base oils, are used in an engine to minimize the energy losses caused by friction in the engine when cold and to maintain a continuous film of lubricant on the lubricated elements of the engine when hot. It is important that the viscosity of the lubricating composition decreases as little as possible during hot operation to avoid the breakdown of the lubricating film. To perform these two functions both cold and hot, it is desirable to have a lubricating composition which has the smallest variation in viscosity with temperature. As a high viscosity index guarantees a lesser drop in viscosity when the temperature increases, lubricating compositions having a high viscosity index are therefore sought after.

Les huiles de base minérales représentent un constituant majeur des compositions lubrifiantes telles que les huiles de moteur. La viscosité d’une huile de base minérale diminue avec une augmentation de la température et augmente avec une diminution de la température. Il s’ensuit que la viscosité d’une composition lubrifiante contenant majoritairement une huile de base minérale voit également sa viscosité varier avec la température.Mineral base oils represent a major constituent of lubricating compositions such as motor oils. The viscosity of a mineral base oil decreases with an increase in temperature and increases with a decrease in temperature. It follows that the viscosity of a lubricating composition mainly containing a mineral base oil also sees its viscosity vary with temperature.

Pour amoindrir cette influence de la température sur la viscosité d’une composition lubrifiante, il est connu d’ajouter des additifs à une huile de base minérale. Ces additifs dits améliorants d’indice de viscosité (en anglais « viscosity improver » ou « viscosity index improver) ont un rôle d’épaississement sélectif de la composition lubrifiante lorsque la température augmente pour remédier partiellement à la chute de la viscosité notée à chaud. Ils augmentent généralement la viscosité à haute température pour contrer la diminution de viscosité de l’huile de base minérale sans l’augmenter significativement à basse température. Les améliorants d’indice de viscosité sont généralement des polymères. Les deux grandes familles de polymères commercialisés comme améliorants d’indice de viscosité sont les polymères à fonction ester comme les poly(méth)acrylates et les polymères hydrocarbonés comme les polyisobutylènes, les copolymères d’éthylène et de propylène également appelés OCP, les copolymères de diène et de styrène hydrogénés, ainsi que les polydiènes hydrogénés. Néanmoins, il existe toujours un besoin d’améliorer encore l’indice de viscosité des compositions lubrifiantes contenant une huile de base minérale telles que les huiles de moteur.To reduce this influence of temperature on the viscosity of a lubricating composition, it is known to add additives to a mineral base oil. These so-called viscosity index improver additives have a role of selective thickening of the lubricating composition when the temperature increases to partially remedy the drop in viscosity noted when hot. They generally increase the viscosity at high temperature to counter the decrease in viscosity of the mineral base oil without increasing it significantly at low temperature. Viscosity index improvers are generally polymers. The two main families of polymers marketed as viscosity index improvers are polymers with an ester function such as poly(meth)acrylates and hydrocarbon polymers such as polyisobutylenes, copolymers of ethylene and propylene also called OCP, copolymers of hydrogenated diene and styrene, as well as hydrogenated polydienes. Nevertheless, there is still a need to further improve the viscosity index of lubricating compositions containing a mineral base oil such as motor oils.

La Demanderesse a découvert une nouvelle composition lubrifiante qui présente un indice de viscosité amélioré.The Applicant has discovered a new lubricating composition which has an improved viscosity index.

Ainsi, un premier objet de l’invention est une composition lubrifiante qui comprend une huile de base minérale et un copolymère d’éthylène et de 1,3-butadiène qui contient plus de 90% à moins de 97% en mole d’unités éthylène et qui a un taux de cristallinité supérieur à 30% et inférieur à 45%.Thus, a first object of the invention is a lubricating composition which comprises a mineral base oil and a copolymer of ethylene and 1,3-butadiene which contains more than 90% to less than 97% by mole of ethylene units. and which has a degree of crystallinity greater than 30% and less than 45%.
