Description
Patented Sept. 26, 1939 PATENT OFFICE LUBRICANT Frederick W. Sullivan, Jr., Flossmoor, Ill., assignor to Standard Oil Company, Chicago, 111., a corporation of Indiana No Drawing.
Application November 27, 1936,
Serial No. 112,985 6 Claims. (01. 87-9) This invention relates to lubricants and, in particular, to addition agents imparting to lubricants improved properties.
My invention has particular utility in preventing and/or inhibiting the corrosion of hard metal alloy bearing such as copper-lead, cadmium-nickel, and cadmium-silver bearings which, to a large extent, have replaced soft metal bearingssuch as Babbitt metal in the trend toward internal combustion engines having high compression ratios and increased acceleration and increased speed characteristics. The use of the hard metal bearings has created lubricating and corrosion .probiems, particularly in connecl tion with highly refined oils, some of which may be very corrosive to the hard metal" bearings.
By highly refined lubricating oils I mean vis cous oils which have a minimum viscosity in the 0 range of S. A. E. 10 oils, and which have been subjected to such refining processes such as, for example, solvent extraction, that the parafiinicity of the oil is markedly increased. It has been found that highly refined lubricating oils cause corrosion to alloy bearings of the cadmium silver type to the extent of 5 mg/cm and even greater when such bearings are submerged for 25 hours or less in an air agitated oil which has been preoxidized at about 340 F. for 25 to 50 hours.
i The motor oils may be highly refined lubricating oils as such or mixtures of highly refined lubrieating oils with less'highly refined lubricating oils, or stated in another way, mixtures of corrosive oils and non-corrosive oils, examples of the latter being lubricating oil fractions from Winkler crude or crudes of the Winkler type.
My invention is practised by adding to highly refined lubricating oils up to 5%, but preferably from 0.0005 to 0.01 gram mols to 100 grams of oil of certain organic phosphorous compounds derived from phosphinic and phosphinous acids, said organic phosphorous compounds having the general formula 2 xiv in which R and R" are hydrocarbon radicals such as alkyl, aryl, aralkyl or alkaryl or mixtures thereof and/or said hydrocarbon radicals having substituted mercapto, hydroxy, amino, alkyl substituted amino, thiocyano, isothiocyano, or halogen group or groups; X is oxygen, sulfur or selenium; Z is either absent or is oxygen, sulfur,
in which R, R and X are as defined above:
Diethyl isoamyl thiophosphinite Diamyl methyl phosphinite Diethyl propylphosphinite Diethyl phenylphosphinite Diethyl phenylthiophosphinite Diphenyl ethylphosphinite Dithiophenyl ethylphosphinite Di isobutyl phenylthiophosphinite Diethyl chlor-phenylphosphinite The following compounds are examples of the esters of the di R-phosphinous acid having the eneral formula in which R, R" and X are as hereinbefore defined:
Ethyl diphenylphosphinite Ethyl diphenylthiophosphinite Isopropyl diphenylthiophosphinite Iso diphenylphosphinite Amyl diamylphosphinite Isoamyl dibutylthiophosphinite Phenyl diphenylphosphinite Phenyl diphenylthiophosphinite Listedbelow are specific examples of the di esters of R-phosphinic acid having the general formula in which R", R", X are as hereinbefore defined and Z is oxygen, sulfur or selenium:
Diethyl phenylphosphinate Diethyl paratolylphosphinate Dibutyl m-carboxy phenylphosphinate Diethyl p-bromo phenylphosphinate Dimethyl alpha hydroxy benzylphosphinate Dibutyl alpha hydroxy isopropylphosphinate Di isoamyl hydroxy methylphosphinate.
in which R The esters of the di R-phosphinic acid having the general formula I '):-P( in which R, R", X are as hereinbefore defined and Z is oxygen, sulfur or selenium are illustrated by the. following representative compounds:
Ethyl phenylethylphosphinate Ethyl diphenylphosphinate Ethyl 4-methyl-4 carboxy diphenylphosphinate Butyl di-p-tolylthiophosphinate Methyl phenylmethylphosphinate Amyl phenylhydroxyethylphosphinate, etc.
Compounds such as ethyl phenylphosphinate, butyl isoamyl thiophosphinate are examples of the mono esters of the R-phosphinic acid having the general formula,
in which R and R" are as hereinbefore defined, contemplated within the scope of my invention. Contemplated within the scope of my invention are also the mono esters of the R-phosphinous acid having the general formula and R" are as hereinbeiore defined. Examples of such compounds are ethyl phenylphosphinite and phenyl butyl phosphinite.
In addition to the compounds hereinbefore mentioned my invention further contemplates the use of the isomers of the di R-phosphinous acid having the general formula R nh X in which R, R" and X are as hereinbefore defined. Examples of compounds falling within this class are:
As has been heretofore mentioned many of the 'recent models of automobiles now in use are equipped with bearings of the hard metal" alloy type such as cadmium-silver alloy, cadmiumnickel alloy, nickel-lead alloy, etc. for the purpose of permitting increased speed characteristics and increased acceleration. In recent years mineral lubricating oils adapted for use in internal combustion engines have been given refining treatments, such as solvent extraction, which are more drastic than those of the past, for the purpose of increasing the viscosity index of such oils. While oils so refined give satisfactory performance in many respects, they have been found to cause more or less trouble in internal combustion engines equipped with bearings of the cadmiumsilver type due to the corrosion of such alloys. This condition is remedied by the addition of very small amounts, such as 0.0005 to 0.01 gram mols per grams of oil of any of the foregoing compounds or mixtures thereof to corrosive highly refined motor oils will inhibit the corrosion of the hard metal alloy bearings.
My invention further contemplates the use of the foregoing compounds in concentrations up to 10% in oils whether highly refined or not for the purpose of improving the film strength of said oils and to impart to lubricants improved extreme pressure characteristics. These compounds may also be used to impart other desirable properties to lubricating oils such as nonsticking ring properties and the like.
Some of the hereinbefore named compounds may not be completely soluble in the lubricant, in which case effective results may be obtained by suspending the inhibitor in the lubricant and by means of a small amount of a peptizlng agent such as aluminum naphthenate, aluminum stearate and the like.
I do not wish to limit myself to'the specific embodiments of my invention herein described except as defined by the appended'claims.
