Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of lubricants, more particularly to the field of the engine lubricants. More particularly, the present invention relates to the use of a lubricant composition in order to reduce knock in a vehicle engine, said lubricant composition comprising at least one base oil and at least one organic anti-knock compound.
  • the lubricant composition according to the invention thus makes it possible to reduce, or even to eliminate knock in a vehicle engine, preferably a motor vehicle engine, while retaining good lubrication properties.
  • the present invention also relates to a lubricating process implementing this composition.
  • the present invention also relates to a process for reducing or even eliminating knock in a vehicle engine, preferably a motor vehicle engine, utilizing this lubricant composition.
  • the present invention also relates to the use of an organic compound in a lubricant composition in order to reduce or even eliminate knock in a vehicle engine, preferably a motor vehicle engine.
  • the present invention also relates to the use of a composition of the additive-concentrate type comprising at least one organic compound in order to reduce or even eliminate knock in a vehicle engine, preferably a motor vehicle engine, utilizing said organic compound.
  • Knock is a phenomenon which occurs in a positive ignition engine of a vehicle, and more particularly in a positive ignition engine of motor vehicles and which is due to the auto-ignition of the fuel upstream of the flame front in the combustion chamber.
  • This auto-ignition propagates at very high speed in the combustion chamber and causes high-frequency vibrations in the gaseous mass, and thermal overload of the engine which may even result serious mechanical incidents.
  • Combustion is a compromise between the speed of propagation of the flame front originating from the spark plug and the auto-ignition delay time of the fuel.
  • knock occurs in the areas distant from the spark plug and most often close to the piston and the cylinder.
  • a lubricant and more particularly an engine lubricant, is used in the cylinders in order to reduce friction as well as the risks of wear.
  • the proximity of the engine lubricant to the areas where knock appears opens up the possibility of interaction between the lubricant and the combustion.
  • lubricants making it possible to attenuate or even to reduce engine knock have been sought.
  • U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,763,613 and 2,898,359 have in particular described the use of anti-knock compounds selected from organometallic compounds, and more particularly ferrocene-type compounds in a lubricant composition.
  • document WO2004/101717 describes the use of manganese-based organometallic compounds in a lubricant composition in order to reduce the knock phenomenon in an engine.
  • the use of such organometallic compounds promotes deposits in the combustion chamber and can thus lead to abnormal combustion such as pre-ignition which can cause significant mechanical malfunction(s). Furthermore, they can present a risk to human health.
  • An object of the invention is thus the use of a lubricant composition in order to reduce knock in a vehicle engine, preferably a motor vehicle engine, said lubricant composition comprising:

  • the present invention makes it possible to formulate lubricant compositions having both a good stability and good properties of reduction or even elimination of the knock phenomenon once utilized in an engine.
  • the lubricant compositions according to the invention have good properties of reduction or even elimination of the knock phenomenon once utilized in an engine without needing to add a high content of anti-knock compound in the lubricant composition.
  • the lubricant compositions according to the invention have good properties of reduction or even elimination of the knock phenomenon once utilized in an engine without needing to add thereto other anti-knock additives, and in particular no anti-knock additives selected from the organometallic compounds.
  • the lubricant compositions according to the invention have good properties of reduction or even elimination of the knock phenomenon once utilized in an engine and the formulation of which is easy to implement.
  • the lubricant compositions according to the invention have good properties of reduction or even elimination of the knock phenomenon once utilized in an engine while making it possible to reduce or even to eliminate the risk of deposits in the combustion chamber.
