Definitions

  • the present invention is related, in part, to a lubricating oil composition. More particularly, the present invention relates to a low phosphorus lubricating oil composition employing a mixture of zinc dithiophosphates and wherein the lubricating oil composition has less than about 0.06 wt % total phosphorus content based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition.
  • the low phosphorus lubricating oil composition of the present invention is effective in lead corrosion control when used as a lubricating oil composition in internal combustion engines.
  • Catalytic converters are now universally employed with gasoline powered vehicles and the efficiency of these converters is directly related to the ability of the catalyst to effect conversion of unburnt or partially burnt hydrocarbons generated during combustion to carbon dioxide and water.
  • One problem arising with the use of such converters is poisoning of the catalyst resulting in reduced catalyst efficiency. Since catalytic converters are intended for extended use, catalyst poisoning results in higher levels of atmospheric discharges of pollutants from internal combustion engines over prolonged periods of time.
  • standards for fuels have included the use of unleaded gasoline in order to avoid lead poisoning of the catalyst as well as lead discharge into the environment. See, for example, Buckley, III, “Long Chain Aliphatic Hydrocarbyl Amine Additive Having an Oxyalkylene Hydroxy Connecting Group”, U.S. Pat. No. 4,975,096, issued Dec. 4, 1990.
  • phosphorus-containing additives such as zinc dithiophosphate wear inhibitors used in lubricant compositions employed to lubricate internal combustion engines.
  • phosphorus-containing additives reach the catalytic converter as a result of, for example, exhaust gas recirculation and/or oil blow-by processes as well as other methods known in the are. See, for example, Beck, et al. “ Impact of Oil-Derived Catalyst Poisons on FTP Performance of LEV Catalyst Systems ”, SAE Technical Paper 972842 (1997) and Darr et al.
  • One well known class of antiwear additives are metal alkylphosphates, especially zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates, are generally employed in lubricating oils at phosphorous levels above 0.1 weight percent when used for wear control. At lower levels, it is not found to be an effective antiwear additive. For instance, as exemplified in U.S. Pat. No. 6,696,393, issued Feb.
  • Zinc dithiophosphates have either dialkyl or diaryl groups. Zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates are further subdivided into primary alkyl and secondary alkyl zinc dithiophosphates. Pentan-1-ol and 3-methylbutan-2-ol are illustrative of the primary and secondary alcohols used to prepare primary and secondary zinc dithiophosphates. Different zinc dithiophosphate chemical types perform differently (See below).

Briefly, four metal specimens of copper, lead, tin, and phosphor bronze are immersed in a measured amount of engine oil. The oil, at an elevated temperature, is blown with air for a period of time. When the test is completed, the lead specimen and the stressed oil are examined to detect corrosion and corrosion products, respectively. A reference oil is tested with each group of tests to verify test acceptability.

The amount of lead corrosion is significantly reduced by the lubricating oil composition of the present invention.
