Definitions

  • the invention provides a lubricating composition containing an antiwear agent and an oil of lubricating viscosity.
  • the invention further relates to the use of the lubricating composition in an internal combustion engine, or a driveline device.
  • lubricating oils It is well known for lubricating oils to contain a number of surface active additives (including antiwear agents, dispersants, or detergents) used to protect internal combustion engines from corrosion, wear, soot deposits and acid build up. Often, such surface active additives can have harmful effects on engine component wear (in both iron and aluminium based components), bearing corrosion or fuel economy.
  • a common antiwear additive for engine lubricating oils is zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP). It is believed that ZDDP antiwear additives protect the engine by forming a protective film on metal surfaces. ZDDP may also have a detrimental impact on fuel economy and efficiency and lead and copper corrosion. Consequently, engine lubricants may also contain a friction modifier to obviate the detrimental impact of ZDDP on fuel economy and corrosion inhibitors to obviate the detrimental impact of ZDDP on lead and copper corrosion. Other additives may also increase lead corrosion.
  • engine lubricants containing phosphorus compounds and sulphur have been shown to contribute in part to particulate emissions and emissions of other pollutants.
  • sulphur and phosphorus tend to poison the catalysts used in catalytic converters, resulting in a reduction in performance of said catalysts.
  • Copper and lead corrosion may be from bearings and other metal engine components derived from alloys using copper or lead. Consequently, there is a need to reduce the amount of corrosion caused by ashless additives. However, reducing the levels of antiwear and other ash-containing additives may result in increasing amounts of wear and/or corrosion (lead and copper).
  • U.S. Pat. No. 2,568,472 discloses a composition containing oil and an amine salt of an acid compound and a hydroxycarboxylic acid, wherein the carboxylic acid group is separated by no more than two carbon atoms and the amine salt is present from 0.01 percent by weight to the limit of its solubility in oil.

  • compositions disclosed in the three international publications include a lubricating composition containing base oil, at least one additive selected from anti-oxidant, dispersant, detergent ort anti-wear agent. None of these references disclose amine salts of hydroxycarboxylic acids.
  • a lubricating composition having the correct balance of phosphorus antiwear or extreme pressure additives provides driveline power transmitting devices with prolonged life and efficiency with controlled deposit formation and oxidation stability.
  • many of the antiwear or extreme pressure additives employed have limited oxidative stability, form deposits or increase corrosion.
