Coffee raw oil

The present invention relates to a lubricating oil, and in particular to a coffee raw oil blended with a coffee green oil.

Conventional lubricating oils include base oils and additives. The base oils are mainly mineral oils, while the additives may contain antifoaming agents, diffusing agents, antioxidants, cleaning agents or rust inhibitors. Lubricate the steam, locomotive engine and various types of machinery to reduce the wear of the parts to reduce the frequency of machine replacement.

The derivative of mineral oil is obtained by distillation and refining. The main component is hydrocarbon, which has a considerable viscosity. It can make the moving interface of the machine produce a film thickness during operation to protect the machine from wear and tear, but Also due to the viscosity of the mineral oil, the friction coefficient of the conventional lubricating oil is increased, and the operating temperature is too high under the long-term running friction of the machine. When the machine is in a high temperature environment for a long time, it is accompanied by the wear and tear of the machine and the service life.

In addition, because mineral oil is extracted from crude oil, nowadays petrochemical energy is increasing due to the increasing population of the earth. Under excessive mining, crude oil is gradually depleting, and the process of refining crude oil will inevitably emit a large amount of carbon dioxide, which will promote the global warming effect. It deteriorates and affects the earth's ecological environment and climate.

In view of this, based on the problem of "higher friction coefficient" and "damage to the environment", it is still necessary to provide an improved lubricating oil to solve the above problem. question.

The main object of the present invention is to provide a coffee raw oil which can reduce the friction coefficient of the conventional lubricating oil by adding the coffee raw oil to reduce the wear of the machine.

The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more <RTIgt; Containing 60 to 70% by weight of mineral oil, 16 to 20% of coffee green oil and 14 to 20% of active agent.

In particular, mineral oil is preferably selected from mineral oil, mechanical oil, white oil or paraffin oil. Since the mineral oil is low in cost and can withstand a temperature between 110 and 130 ° C, The lubricating oil widely used in industrial machinery is the main base oil of the coffee raw material lubricating oil in the present invention.

The above-mentioned coffee biomass oil can be obtained by the following method, taking 1 kg of coffee and lysing at 400-550 ° C to obtain the coffee green oil, preferably, the coffee raw oil can be cracked. Nitrogen treatment is carried out to remove impurities in the coffee raw oil, and the final oil production rate is 25 wt%, wherein the temperature of the cracked coffee is preferably 450 ° C, and the obtained coffee biomass oil is 40 ° C viscosity system. It can be maintained at 60~70cSt (as shown in Figure 1), and the viscosity change is not great within 90 days; the way the coffee green oil is obtained is available to those skilled in the art. For the sake of understanding, it will not be repeated here.

The above active agent may be any additive having a solubilizing effect, preferably selected from the group consisting of polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether and sorbitan oleate for binding to the coffee raw oil. Thereby, the coffee biomass oil is thoroughly mixed with the mineral oil, wherein the weight ratio of the polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether and the sorbitan oleate may be 6:1 to 15:10, preferably 13:6.

The coffee raw material lubricating oil of the invention is a mineral oil blended with coffee raw oil to reduce the amount of mineral oil, wherein 65% by weight of mineral oil, 16% of coffee raw oil and 19% of active agent are Better; replacing some mineral oil with coffee green oil can increase the surface contact angle and reduce the surface adhesion, thus improving the problem of the high friction coefficient of the traditional lubricating oil, so that the machine is not easy to rub and heat, so that the protection of the machine is less The effect of wear and tear.

In order to confirm that the coffee biomass lubricating oil of the present invention has the above-mentioned effects, the following tests were carried out:

(A) Viscosity test

This test tests the viscosity of the coffee raw oil of the present invention by a Redwood viscosimeter, which is a blend of 65% by weight of mineral oil and 16% of coffee. A lubricating oil, 13% polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether and 6% sorbitan oleate, and LPS68 lubricating oil was used as a control group, and LPS68 was a mineral oil-based lubricating oil. The results are shown in Table 1. .

Please refer to Table 1. At high temperature, the viscosity of the coffee raw oil of the present invention is significantly lower than that of the LPS68 lubricating oil, which means that the addition of the coffee raw oil can effectively reduce the viscosity to maintain the lubricating effect.

(B) Abrasion test

This test uses a parallel type grinding tester to perform the abrasion test according to ASTM D-2782 to measure the wear properties of coffee raw oil and LPS68 lubricating oil under different load and speed, such as friction coefficient and mechanical parts. The temperature and contact resistance are shown in Figures 2 to 4, and the symbols in the respective figures are shown in Table 2.

Please refer to Fig. 2, which is the friction coefficient measured with time under the load of 20N and the rotation speed of 80 rpm and the temperature of the machine. At each time, the friction coefficient of the coffee raw oil of the present invention is Lower than LPS68 lubricating oil, which affects the temperature of the machine; corresponding to the friction coefficient, the friction caused by the use of the coffee raw oil is smaller, and the temperature rise of the machine is also significantly lower than that of the LPS68 lubricating oil.

Please refer to the third figure, which is the friction coefficient measured by time and the temperature of the machine under the load of 40N and the rotation speed of 80rpm. At each time, the friction coefficient of the coffee raw oil of the present invention is obvious. It is lower than LPS68 lubricating oil, and the temperature of the coffee raw material lubricating oil is also lower than that of LPS68 lubricating oil. The above results are consistent with the lower friction coefficient and the lower temperature of the corresponding parts.

Please refer to Fig. 4, which is the friction coefficient measured with time at 60N and 320rpm, and the temperature of the machine. Although the friction coefficient of the coffee raw oil of the present invention is higher than LPS68. Lubricating oil, but as time goes by, the friction coefficient gradually decreases and is lower than LPS68 lubricating oil at the 10th minute; corresponding to the friction coefficient result, the initial mechanical temperature measured by using the coffee raw lubricating oil is higher than LPS68 lubricating oil, however, with the subsequent lower friction coefficient, the temperature rise is much lower than that of LPS68 lubricating oil. Therefore, the coffee raw lubricating oil can reduce the friction heat generated by the machine and avoid the machine. The operating temperature of the piece is too high.

In summary, the coffee raw material lubricating oil of the invention can effectively improve the viscosity of the traditional lubricating oil, reduce the heat generated by the friction of the machine parts, avoid the long-term operation of the machine parts under high temperature, and achieve the effect of delaying the service life of the machine parts.

Furthermore, the coffee raw material lubricating oil of the invention reduces the amount of mineral oil, thereby slowing the excessive exploitation of crude oil and reducing the refining of crude oil, thereby achieving the effects of saving energy and reducing air pollution.
