Per cent of s-diphenylethylenediamine naphthenate.

As another example: With a similar lubricating stock there is incorporated 0.01 per cent of di-o-tolylethylenediamine stearate.

This application is a continuation, in part and as to common subject matter, of my application Ser. No. 105,747, filed Oct. 15, 1936.

Other modes of. applying the principle of the invention may be employed, change being made as regards the details described, provided the features stated in anyof the following claims, or the equivalent of such, be employed.

1. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oilof lubricating'viscosity and a small amount of an arylethyleneamine compound from the group consisting of phenyl and tolyl derivative with a carboxylic acid of the group consisting of fatty acids of at least ten carbon atoms and naphthenic acid.

2. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil.

of lubricating viscosity and a small amount of a phenylethylenediamine compound of a carboxylic acid of the group consisting offatty acids of at least ten carbon atoms and naphthenic acid.

3. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil of lubricating viscosity and a small amount of a di-o-tolylethylenediamine compound of a carboxylic acid of the group-consisting of fatty acids of at least ten carbon atoms and naphthenic acid.

4. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil of lubricating viscosity and a small amount s-diphenylethylenediamine naphthenate.

. 6 Claims.

It has been proposed already to improve the resistance of mineral lubricating oils against deterioration, by adding certain amines. While in the main productive of advantageous results, a diflleulty arises in that under some circumstances of usage which is quite drastic, particularly by high temperature exposure, such products do not last as long as is desirable. I have found however that particularly durable lubricants maybe prepared, capable of standing up under various drastic usage conditions.

To the accomplishment of the foregoing and I related ends, the invention, then comprises the features hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims, the following description setting forth in detail certain illustrative embodiments of the invention, these being indicative however, of but a few of the vari ous ways in which the principle of the invention may be employed.

Taking an oil as a desired base, as, for instance a mineral oil the viscosity of which may be as desired, I incorporate therewith one or more compounds of detail more particularly referred to hereinafter. Thus, a petroleum stock for example of viscosity of 47 to 200 Saybolt Universal ,at 210 F. may be employed, and with this incorporated a small amount of an aryl amine compound of a fatty acid radical of at least ten carbon atoms or a naphthenic acid, and especially a phenylethylenediamine compound of the acid. Preferably as such compounds are sdiphenylethylenediamine stearate, s-diphenylethylenediamine naphthenate, s-diphenylethylenediamine laurate, di-o-tolylethylenediamine naphthenate, di-o-tolylethylenediamine stearate, di-o-tolylethylenediamine laurate, etc., these compounds being made by combining molecular proportions of the acid and the base and reacting at moderate temperatures, as for Application March 11, 1939, Serial No. 261,366

soluble in mineral oil, and being of generally rather high boiling points are capable'of maintaining stable mixtures.

As an example: With a Mid-Continent lubrieating stock having a viscosity of. 300 saybolt,

Universal at 100 R, there is incorporated 0.01

per cent of s-diphenylethylenediamine naphthenate. I

1 therefore particularly point out and distinctly claim as my invention:

1. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil of lubricating'viscosity and a small amount of an arylethyleneamine compound from the group consisting of phenyl and tolyl derivative with a carboxylic acid of the group consisting of fatty acids of at least ten carbon atoms and naphthenic acid.

2. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil.

of lubricating viscosity and a small amount of a phenylethylenediamine compound of. a carboxylic acid of the group consisting offatty acids of at least ten carbon atoms and naphthenic acid.

3. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil of lubricating viscosity and a small amount of a di-o-tolylethylenediamine compound of a carboxylisc acid of the group-consisting of fatty acids of at least ten carbon atoms and naphthenic acid.

4. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil of lubricating viscosity and a small amount of s-diphenylethylenediamine naphthenate.

6. As a lubricating composition, a mineral oil of lubricating viscosity and a small amount of I di-o-tolylethylenediamine 'naphthenate.
