Abstract

Oil-soluble petroleum sulphonic acids are produced by treating a hydrocarbon oil fraction with concentrated sulphuric acid in such an amount and of such concentration as to remove therefrom substantially only those hydrocarbons which, upon sulphation, yield water-soluble sulphonic acids, prior to the sulphonation of the hydrocarbon fraction with fuming sulphuric acid or sulphur trioxide. The amount of sulphuric acid used in the pre-treatment may be in the range of 45 to 55 per cent by weight of the hydrocarbon oil fraction, and may have a strength of 90 to 100 per cent, preferably 98 per cent, by weight. The hydrocarbon fraction may have a viscosity of 20 to 100 cs. at 60 DEG C. and the treatment is preferably effected at 10 DEG to 35 DEG C. The sulphonation may be effected by dissolving the oil in liquid sulphur dioxide and treating the solution with oleum at - 10 DEG C. When sulphur trioxide is used for sulphonation a temperature of 20-50 DEG C. is suitable. It is possible to use solvent refining (e.g. with liquid sulphur dioxide) as a pre-treatment in conjunction with the sulphuric acid treatment but lower yields of oil-soluble sulphonic acids result. The starting material may be a distillate from a waxfree crude oil. When using a wax-bearing crude and sulphonating with oleum at low temperature it is necessary to de-wax prior to the pretreatment. In examples: (1) a light engine distillate, from a wax-free crude, is treated at 20-50 DEG C. with 45 per cent by weight of 98 per cent sulphonic acid and, after settling off the acid sludge, the treated oil is dissolved in sulphur dioxide at - 10 DEG C. and treated with oleum; after removal of sulphur dioxide and spent sulphuric acid the sulphonation product is neutralized with aqueous caustic soda to yield a sodium sulphonate; (2) the distillate, pretreated as in (1) is sulphonated at 20 DEG C. with a sulphur trioxide/air mixture, then neutralized with caustic soda to give a sodium sulphonate. U.S.A. Specification 2,680,716 is referred to.
