Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of improving elastomer seal compatibility and dispersancy in an internal combustion engine. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method comprising contacting elastomer seals in an internal combustion engine with a lubricating oil composition having improved elastomer seal compatibility. Moreover, the present invention relates to the use of a lubricating oil composition able to render nitrogen-containing dispersants contained in lubricating oils compatible with elastomer seals used in internal combustion engines.
  • crankcase lubricating oil compositions It is known to employ nitrogen-containing dispersants and/or detergents in the formulation of crankcase lubricating oil compositions. Many of the known dispersant/detergent compounds are based on the reaction of an alkenylsuccinic acid or anhydride with an amine or polyamine to produce an alkenylsuccinimide or an alkenylsuccinamic acid as determined by selected conditions of reaction.
  • a continuing problem in the art of lubrication is to provide lubricating oil compositions which satisfy the demands imposed upon them by the original equipment manufacturers.
  • One such requirement is that lubricants not contribute to premature deterioration of seals, clutch face plates or other parts made from elastomers such as fluoro, acrylic, silicone, nitrile and the like.
  • Elastomers are increasingly being used in fabricating the flexible seals which are used in internal combustion engines. These seals are used, for example, to prevent leakage of lubricants at the point where moving parts, such as a crankshaft, leave the engine. Any substantial leakage of lubricant from the engine is obviously undesirable.
  • elastomer seals are subject to discoloration and mechanical deterioration when used in engines which are lubricated with lubricating oils containing polyamine dispersants, i.e., nitrogen-containing dispersants.
  • the polyamine dispersants interact with the elastomer seals, causing the seals to swell and to lose mechanical and dimensional integrity.
  • the rate of attack of the elastomer seals by a polyamine dispersant appears to be directly proportional to the concentration of polyamine dispersant and to the operating temperature of the engine. As the engine operating temperature rises, the rate of decomposition of the seal rises proportionately.
  • the mechanical strength and dimensional integrity of the seal increasingly deteriorates until the seal fails to prevent the leakage of lubricant from the engine.
  • succinimides useful as dispersants and/or detergents are not always compatible with elastomer seals when present in lubricating oil compositions at concentration levels necessary to be effective in controlling engine deposits.
  • nitrogenated components normally used in lubricants bis-succinimides with dispersant action have proved particularly critical towards elastomers, either when used alone or in combination with, for example, viscosity index improvement polymers of dispersant action containing nitrogenated monomers.
  • both these classes of additive contain strongly basic amino groups (primary and/or secondary and/or tertiary).
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,873,009 is also concerned, in part, with the use of succinimides as lube oil additives.
  • This patent teaches in Col. 2, lines 28 et seq. that lube additives prepared from “long chain aliphatic polyamines”, i.e., succinimides, “are excellent lube oil additives”. It teaches such succinimides are “inferior to additives where the alkylene polyamine is hydroxyalkylated” (Col. 2, lines 31-32). Such hydroxyalkylated polyamine-based succinimides, however, “have the drawback that they tend to attack engine seals particularly those of the fluorocarbon polymer type” (Col. 2, lines 35-37). This patent solves the fluoroelastomer seal compatibility problem by directly borating the hydroxylated polyamine-based succinimide.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,940,552 relates to polyamine dispersants passivated toward fluorohydrocarbon compositions.
  • the dispersants described comprise the reaction product of a Mannich polyamine dispersant with an amount of maleic anhydride sufficient to reduce the reactivity with fluorohydrocarbons of the dispersant.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,356,552 teaches succinimide additives post-treated with a cyclic carbonate having fluoroelastomer seal compatibility and for concentration levels at which fluoroelastomer seal compatibility is achieved, possess improved dispersancy and/or detergency.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,124,247 teaches that dispersants of mono-succinimides or bis-succinimides are even more effective if their relative basic nitrogen content is high, i.e. insofar as the number of nitrogen atoms of the polyamine is larger than the number of succinic anhydride groups substituted by a polyisobutenyl group.
  • the higher the basic nitrogen content of these dispersants the more they favor the attack of the fluoroelastomer seal used in modern engines, because the basic nitrogen tends to reach with the acidic hydrogen atoms of this type of seal, and this attack results in the formation of cracks in the elastomer surface and the loss of other physical properties sought in this type of material.
  • the patent provides that by using lubricating oil compositions containing a dispersant of mono-succinimide or bis-succinimide type, post-treated or not, in combination with a borated glycerol ester, one obtains a composition compatible with fluorocarbon elastomers.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,162,770 teaches a process for preparing an unsulfurized, alkali metal-free, detergent-dispersant composition having from 40% to 60% alkylphenol, from 10% to 40% alkaline earth alkylphenate, and from 20% to 40% alkaline earth single aromatic-ring alkylsalicylate.
  • This composition may have an alkaline earth double aromatic-ring alkylsalicylate as long as the mole ratio of single-ring alkylsalicylate to double aromatic-ring alkylsalicylate is at least 8:1.
  • This composition may be produced by the three-step process involving neutralization of alkylphenols, carboxylation of the resulting alkylphenate, and filtration of the product of the carboxylation step.
  • the detergent-dispersant produced by the method can be used in an engine lubricating composition to improve antioxidant properties, high temperature deposit control, and black sludge control.
  • the patent does not mention that the detergent-dispersant produced provides improved elasto

  • the present invention is directed to the use of a certain carboxylated detergent-dispersant to improve the elastomer seal compatibility in a lubricating oil composition containing a basic nitrogen-containing dispersant in an internal combustion engine.
  • the present invention is based on the discovery that a certain carboxylated detergent-dispersant improves elastomer seal compatibility of lubricating oil compositions containing nitrogen-containing dispersants.

  • Total Base Number refers to the amount of base equivalent to milligrams of KOH in 1 gram of sample. Thus, higher TBN numbers reflect more alkaline products and therefore a greater alkalinity reserve.

  • Mineral oils for use as the base oil in this invention include, for example, paraffinic, naphthenic and other oils that are ordinarily used in lubricating oil compositions.
  • Synthetic oils include, for example, both hydrocarbon synthetic oils and synthetic esters and mixtures thereof having the desired viscosity.
  • Hydrocarbon synthetic oils may include, for example, oils prepared from the polymerization of alpha olefins, i.e., polyalphaolefin or PAO, or from hydrocarbon synthesis procedures using carbon monoxide and hydrogen gases such as in a Fisher-Tropsch process.

  • alkylphenols are neutralized using an alkaline earth base in the presence of at least one C 1 to about C 4 carboxylic acid. This reaction is carried out in the absence of alkali base, and in the absence of dialcohol or monoalcohol.
  • the alkylphenols contain up to 98% of linear alkylphenol (preferably up to 35% linear alkylphenol) in mixture with up to 15% of branched alkylphenol.
  • the linear alkyl radical contains about 12 to about 40 carbon atoms, more preferably about 18 to about 30 carbon atoms.
  • the branched alkyl radical contains at least nine carbon atoms, preferably about 9 to about 24 carbon atoms, more preferably about 10 to about 15 carbon atoms.
  • alkylphenol containing up to 35% of long linear alkylphenol is particularly attractive because a long linear alkyl chain promotes the compatibility and solubility of the additives in lubricating oils.
  • long linear alkyl chain promotes the compatibility and solubility of the additives in lubricating oils.
  • relatively heavy linear alkyl radicals in the alkylphenols makes the latter less reactive than branched alkylphenols, hence the need to use harsher reaction conditions to bring about their neutralization by an alkaline earth base.
  • Branched alkylphenols can be obtained by reaction of phenol with a branched olefin, generally originating from propylene. They consist of a mixture of monosubstituted isomers, the great majority of the substituents being in the para position, very few being in the ortho position, and hardly any in the meta position. That makes them relatively reactive towards an alkaline earth base, since the phenol function is practically devoid of steric hindrance.
  • linear alkylphenols can be obtained by reaction of phenol with a linear olefin, generally originating from ethylene. They consist of a mixture of monosubstituted isomers in which the proportion of linear alkyl substituents in the ortho, para, and meta positions is much more uniformly distributed. This makes them much less reactive towards an alkaline earth base since the phenol function is much less accessible due to considerable steric hindrance, due to the presence of closer and generally heavier alkyl substituents.
  • the alkaline earth bases that can be used for carrying out this step include the oxides or hydroxides of calcium, magnesium, barium, or strontium, and particularly of calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, magnesium oxide, and mixtures thereof.
  • slaked lime calcium hydroxide is preferred.

  • the carboxylic acids act as transfer agents, assisting the transfer of the alkaline earth bases from a mineral reagent to an organic reagent.
  • the neutralization operation is carried out at a temperature of at least 200° C., preferably at least 215° C., and, more preferably, at least 240° C.
  • the pressure is reduced gradually below atmospheric in order to distill off the water of reaction. Accordingly the neutralization should be conducted in the absence of any solvent that may form an azeotrope with water. Preferably, the pressure is reduced to no more than 7,000 Pa (70 mbars).
  • the quantities of reagents used should correspond to the following molar ratios:
  • alkaline earth base/alkylphenol of about 0.2:1 to about 0.7:1, preferably about 0.3:1 to about 0.5:1;

More preferably, at the end of this neutralization step the alkylphenate obtained is kept for between two and six hours at an absolute pressure of between 10,000 and 20,000 Pa (between 0.1 and 0.2 bar).
  • the carboxylation step is conducted by simply bubbling carbon dioxide into the reaction medium originating from the preceding neutralization step and is continued until at least 20 mole % of the alkylphenate to alkylsalicylate (measured as salicylic acid by potentiometric determination).

  • At least 22 mole % of the starting alkylphenols is converted to alkylsalicylate using carbon dioxide at a temperature of between 180° and 240° C., under a pressure within the range of from above atmospheric pressure to 15 ⁇ 105 Pa (15 bars) for a period of one to eight hours.
  • At least 25 mole % of the starting alkylphenols is converted to alkylsalicylate using carbon dioxide at a temperature equal to or greater than 200° C. under a pressure of 4 ⁇ 105 Pa (4 bars).
  • the product of the carboxylation step is then filtered.
  • the purpose of the filtration step is to remove sediments, and particularly crystalline calcium carbonate, which might have been formed during the preceding steps, and which may cause plugging of filters installed in lubricating oil circuits.
  • the carboxylated detergent-dispersant formed by this process can be characterized by its unique composition, with much more alkylphenol and alkaline earth metal single aromatic-ring hydrocarbyl salicylate than produced by other routes.
  • the reaction product will typically have the following composition:

  • Ashless dispersants are broadly divided into several groups.
  • One such group is directed to copolymers which contain a carboxylate ester with one or more additional polar function, including amine, amide, imine, imide, hydroxyl carboxyl, and the like. These products can be prepared by copolymerization of long chain alkyl acrylates or methacrylates with monomers of the above function.
