relates to lubricants, and more particularly to compositions for use in connection with the lubrication of internal combustion engines and motor 5 objects of the invention vehicles; and it is among the to provide compositions obviating the disadvantages of the usual petroleum oils.

Other objects and advantages will appear as the descripti on proceeds.

To the accomplishment of the foregoing and related ends, the features hereinaf larly pointed out scription setting ments of the invention,

however, of but a invention, then, consists of the ter fully described, and particuin the claims, the following deforth in detail certain embodithese being illustrative, few of the various ways in which 'the principle of the invention may be employed.

In accordance with my invention, a halogenated ring compound is incorporated with a mineral oil base. heavier body a the character Such oil may be of lighter or of s may be desired, of service in view.

It will be noted that the above enumerated examples of 0 preferably emplo type, i. e., compo structures and are also of the arbon ring compounds which are yed, are compounds of the aryl unds containing benzenoid ring type in which the halogen is directly attached to an atom which is a part of such ring struc As a matter 0 diphenyls and substituted ture. f convenience, the halogenated diphenyls, as well as halogenated substituted benzenes where two or more phenyl gro ups are directly linked, may be inclusively referred to as halogenated polyphenyls. The amount of halogenated compound may vary somewhat with the particular usage in view,

and may range up to for instance, about 20 per cent. temperatures.

,701. Renewed July 27, 1933 the best concentration varies from about ntaining say to 25% of chlorine. A lubricant to be used on the valve mechanism will preferably contain a larger amount of such compounds, say 2 to 10%. The limit of the amount which will produce improved results depends upon the reduction in viscosity of theoil caused by the compound added. Certain of the more viscous compounds, for example, chlorinated diphenyl containing about 50% chlorine, may be added in amounts exceeding 10% without causing too great a reduction of the viscosity. In any case, the composition will have inferior lubricating properties if the loss of viscosity is too great as will result from the use of more than 20% of halogenated compounds of any occurs readily and at ordinary type. Mixture temperatures.

Compositions of the character described are capable of providing superior valve lubrication, and exhibit marked penetration while at the same time the advantage of low volatile oil body is had. For usage in internal combustion engines, a further particular advantage lies in the tendency of such a compounded oil to keep down carbon formation and hence, the lubricant comprising my invention is well adapted for use in motor fuel, i. e., the composition may be dissolved in gasoline or the like in order to lubricate the upper parts of the engine consuming such fuel. I'he cold test of such oils moreover is materially lowered, thus rendering them notably useful for engine lubrication in cold weather or in aviation also for transformer and electrical usage generally.

This application is a continuation in part of my co-pending application, Ser. No. 463,366 filed June 23, 1930.

Other modes of applying the principle of the invention may be employed, change being made as regards the details described, provided the features stated in any of the following claims, or the equivalent of such, be employed.
