Definitions
- Lubricating oil additives have been developed inhibit the formation of such carbon and/or irnish-like deposits in internal combustion ennes during use. Other. additives have been dezloped to enhance the viscosity index of lubritting oils.
- the various types of lubricating oil iditives which have been developed to impart I lubricating oils certain desired properties are ecific to their particular purpose and hence it as been necessary to employ several types of iditives to impart to a lubricating oil all of the :sired characteristics.
- the viscosity index of an oil can be increased by adding thereto certain high molecular weight organic compounds having molecular weights of from about 800 to about 100,000 and higher, and preferably from about 2,000 to about 50,000.
- Organic compounds which can suitably be employed are rubber, hydrogenated natural or synthetic rubber, natural or synthetic rubber, high molecular weight polymers of olefinic hydrocarbons such as high molecular weight isobutylene and isobutylene-normal butylene polymers, and hydrogenated high molecular weight polymers of olefinic hydrocarbons.
- the synthetic rubbers referred toLincIude butadiene, isoprene and chlorprene polymers and/or copolymers.
- additives which have been employed for this purpose are oil-soluble polymers of compounds having the general formula in which R is an alkylene radical, R1 is an hydrogen atom, an alkyl, aryl or other hydrocarbon roup and R2 is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical or an amino substituted aliphatic radical derived from an amino alcohol or a long-chain fatty acid salt thereof.
- R is an alkylene radical
- R1 is an hydrogen atom
- R1 is an hydrogen atom
- R1 is an alkyl, aryl or other hydrocarbon roup
- R2 is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical or an amino substituted aliphatic radical derived from an amino alcohol or a long-chain fatty acid salt thereof.
- the high molecular weight organic compounds as exemplified by the above classes of compounds are modified to impart still other properties to lubricants to which they are added.
- compounds of the types above described are modified to inhibit carbon and/or varnishlike formations on and about pistons, piston rings and the like of internal combustion engines when added to lubricating oils normally susceptible to form such carbon and/or varnish-like deposits, as well as improving the viscosity index of such lubricating oils.

Description
Patented Apr. 6, 1943 LUBRICANT Charles D. Kelso, Calumet City, 111., and Lawson W. Mixon, Hammond, Ind., assignors to Standard Oil Company, Chicago, 111., a corporation of Indiana No Drawing. Application March 24, 1941, Serial No. 384,945
26 Claims. (Cl. 252-39) It is known that the viscosity of certain types f lubricating oils is greatly afiected by tem- Ierature changes, and the viscosity-temperature elationship of an oil is therefore a highly speific characteristic. Highly paraffinic oils do not ecrease in viscosity with increase in temperaure as rapidly as do naphtheniq oils. This iscosity-temperature relationship is measured by he viscosity index (V. I.) of the oil. Where 'ide variations in operation conditions are enountered, as with automobile and aircraft enine lubrication, the viscosity-temperature co- Eficient of the lubricant is of great importance nd oils which show a minimum change in visasity under these conditions are highly desired. It is known that many types of lubricating oils sually used in internal combustion engines of th the spark-ignition and compression-ignition rpes have a tendency to form carbon and/or imish-like deposits on and about the pistons [1d piston ringsetc. of such engines, causing the iston rings to become stuck in their slots, thus :ducing the efliciency of the engine.
Lubricating oil additives have been developed inhibit the formation of such carbon and/or irnish-like deposits in internal combustion ennes during use. Other. additives have been dezloped to enhance the viscosity index of lubritting oils. The various types of lubricating oil iditives which have been developed to impart I lubricating oils certain desired properties are ecific to their particular purpose and hence it as been necessary to employ several types of iditives to impart to a lubricating oil all of the :sired characteristics.
It is an object of the present invention to on to provide a mineral lubricating oil compotion having improved viscosity index character- It is another object of the present invenistics and which forms substantially no carbon and/or varnish-like deposits in internal combustion engines during use.
It is known that the viscosity index of an oil can be increased by adding thereto certain high molecular weight organic compounds having molecular weights of from about 800 to about 100,000 and higher, and preferably from about 2,000 to about 50,000. Organic compounds which can suitably be employed are rubber, hydrogenated natural or synthetic rubber, natural or synthetic rubber, high molecular weight polymers of olefinic hydrocarbons such as high molecular weight isobutylene and isobutylene-normal butylene polymers, and hydrogenated high molecular weight polymers of olefinic hydrocarbons. The synthetic rubbers referred toLincIude butadiene, isoprene and chlorprene polymers and/or copolymers. Other types of additives which have been employed for this purpose are oil-soluble polymers of compounds having the general formula in which R is an alkylene radical, R1 is an hydrogen atom, an alkyl, aryl or other hydrocarbon roup and R2 is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical or an amino substituted aliphatic radical derived from an amino alcohol or a long-chain fatty acid salt thereof. Compounds of this type are described in United States Patent Nos. 2,091,627 and 2,104,796.
In accordance with the present invention the high molecular weight organic compounds as exemplified by the above classes of compounds are modified to impart still other properties to lubricants to which they are added. Particularly, compounds of the types above described, are modified to inhibit carbon and/or varnishlike formations on and about pistons, piston rings and the like of internal combustion engines when added to lubricating oils normally susceptible to form such carbon and/or varnish-like deposits, as well as improving the viscosity index of such lubricating oils. The improved additive of the present invention is obtained by treating a high molecular weight organic compound, capable of increasing the viscosity index of an oil, with a phosphorus sulfide such as P283, P384, P4S7, P4810, or preferably, P285.
Suitable starting materials are the oil-soluble high molecular weight polymerization products of esters having the vinyl or substituted vinyl group of the type described in United States Patent No. 2,091,627. Esters of the type therein described have the general formula R CHr- -X in which R is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl, aryl or other hydrocarbon group and X is ll 0-C-R1 i-0-In in which R1 is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical having more than four carbon atoms or an ether derivative thereof. Especially suitable as starting materials are the polymerized esters of acrylic acid or of its alpha-alkyl or alpha-aryl substitution products and monhydric alcohols of'more than four carbon atoms. These polymers can be prepared by heating the esters at a temperature of from about 158 F. to about 212 F. in the presence of a catalyst such as peroxide, ozonide, or other catalyst such as the anhydrous halides of polyvalent or amphoteric metals.
Other high molecular weight organic compounds which can be used as the starting materials are the high molecular weight, preferably those above about 2,000, oil-soluble polymerized acrylic and alpha-substituted acrylic acid esters of amino alcohols or the long-chain fatty acid salts of such alcohols. These compounds of the types described in United States Patent No. 2,104,796 may be represented by the formula wherein R represents an alkylene radical, R1 represents hydrogen or an alkyl radical and R2 an amino substituted aliphatic radical derived from an amino alcohol or its salt. Preferably, the amino alcohol contains a tertiary nitrogen atom in which the substituents attached to the nitrogen are aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals. The polymeric esters derived from N substituted amino alcohols in which the substituents are all-,- phatic hydrocarbon radicals of at least four carbon atoms will, in general, be found to be sufliciently soluble in the oil. The polymeric esters derived from amino alcohols containing a lesser number of carbon atoms will be less soluble in the oils and it will generally be necessary to employ these polymers in the form of long-chain fatty acid salts in order to render them sufficiently soluble to enable the desired amount to be added and retained in the oil.
High molecular weight compounds which are suitable starting materials are high molecular weight voltalized fatty oils and/or mineral oils. Compounds of the type of polystyrene and polyindene can also be employed. Other high molecular weight organic compounds having V. L-
imparting properties which can be used as starting materials in the preparation of the improved multifunctional additive are the high molecular weight polymers having molecular weights higher than about 2,000, resulting from the low temperature polymerization of olefinic hydrocarbons in the presence of a catalyst of the Friedel-Crafts type such as boron fluoride or aluminum chloride.
The high molecular weight olefin polymer may be a polymer resulting from the polymerization of a low molecular weight iso-mono-olefin such as isobutylene or isoamylene and/or the copolymers obtained by the polymerization of hydrocarbon mixtures containing low molecular weight iso-mono-olefins and normal mono-oleflns such as those having less than six carbon atoms and preferably those of four carbon atoms. These high molecular weight polymers can be obtained, for example, by the polymerization in the liquid phase of an iso-olefin such as isobutylene or a hydrocarbon mixture containing isobutylene at a temperature of from about 0 F. to about -1 50 F., for example 80 F., in the presence of a catalyst such as boron fluoride. For example, a hydrocarbon mixture containing from about 10% to about 25% isobutylene is maintained under pressure sufilcient to keep it in the liquid phase and cooled to a temperature of about 80 F. and from about 0.01% to about 2% boron fluoride, based upon the isobutylene content oi the material treated, added with vigorous agitation. Excessive rise in temperature due to the heat of the reaction is avoided by eflicient cooling. After the polymerization of the isobutylene together with a relatively minoramount of the normal olefins present, the reaction mass is neutralized and washed free of acidic substances arising from the catalyst. The oily layer is separated and the polymer subsequently separated from the unreacted hydrocarbon by distillation The polymer so obtained has a molecular weigh1 of from about 3,000 to about 50,000 and is an effective additive for increasing the viscosity inde: characteristics of a lubricating oil normally having a relatively poor viscosity-temperature coeflicient.
The multifunctional additive of the present invention is prepared by reacting a phosphorus sulfide, preferably phosphorus pentasulfide, with i high molecular weight organic compound of th hereindescribed type, having the property of improving the viscosity index characteristics of 1 lubricating oil. Thus, the new additive of th present invention can be prepared by reactin: phosphorus pentasulfide with a high molecula weight organic compound selected from the clas of compounds above described, capable of im parting improved V. I. properties to a lubricatin; oil. The reaction is carried out at a temperatur of from about 200 F. to about 500 F. and pref erably from about 300 F. to about 400 F. whil maintaining a non-oxidizing atmosphere, suc] as an atmosphere of nitrogen, above the reactioi mixture. From about 1% to about 50%. an preferably from about 5% to about 25% of th phosphorus sulfide should be used. It is prefer able to use an amount that will react completel with the second-reactant so that no further purl fication becomes necessary. However, if an ex cess amount of the phosphorus sulfide is used th unreacted phosphorus sulfide can be remove from the final product by filtration or by dilutin the reaction product with a solvent, such as hex ane, filtering and subsequently distilling c evaporating of! the solvent. The final reactio product can be further refined by treating th same with a compound having an active hydrc gen atom at a temperature of from about 1 to 600 F. and preferably by steam blowing tr reaction product at a temperature of from aboi 200" F. to about 600 F. and preferably fro] about 300 F. to 400 F.
The above reaction may be carried out i: merely admixing the two reactants, or the his molecular weight organic compound may be di: solved in a suitable solvent, such as a lubricatir oil or other high-boiling hydrocarbon solvents,
and the phosphorus sulfide added to the solution or the organic compound may be dispersed in a solvent and the phosphorus sulfide added to the dispersion. The mixture is then heated to a temperature within the above range to bring about a reaction between the phosphorus sulfide and the high molecular weight compound. If desired the solvent may be removed from the reaction prod not by distillation and reused or recycled.
The reaction productrof a phosphorus sulfide and a high molecular weight organic compound of the class described herein normally shows a titratable acidity which is neutralized when the reaction product is treated with a basic reagent. The phosphorus sulfide-high molecular weight organic compound reaction product when neutralized with a basic reagent containinga metal constituent is characterized by the presenceor retention of the metal constituent of the basic reagent. Other metal constituents such as areaction product containing a metal constituent resulting from said neutralization or resulting from the reaction of a heavy metal salt with a phosphorus sulfide-high molecular weight organic compound reaction product treated with a basic reagent. 1
The neutralized phosphorus sulfide-high molecular weight organic compound reaction product can be obtained by adding to the reaction product a suitable basic compound such as a hydroxide, a carbonate or an oxide of an alkaline earth metal or an alkali metal, preferably potassium lurdroxide, sodium hydroxide or lime. Other basic reagents can be used such as, for example, ammonia or alkyl or aryl substituted ammonia such as amines.
As aforesaid, when the phosphorus sulfide-highmolecular weight organic compound reaction product is neutralized with a basic reagent containing a metal constituent, the neutralized reaction product is characterized by the presence of a metal constituent of such basic reagent. Neutralized reaction products containing a heavy metal constituent such as, for example, tin, titanium, aluminum, chromium, cobalt, iron and the like may be obtained by reacting a salt of the desired heavy metal with the phosphorus sulfide-high molecular weight organic compound reaction product which has been treated with a basic reagent. It will be understood that when the neutralization is accomplished with a polyvalent basic material, such as lime, a product having excess basicity may be obtained.
The reaction product of a phosphorus sulfide and a high molecular weight organic compound of the class described when added to a lubricating oil in small amounts of from about 0.01% to about 20% and preferably from about 0.5% to about 5% is effective in increasing the viscosity index of the lubricating oil and also in inhibiting the formation and/or deposition of carbon and/or varnish-like deposits in internal combusfacilitate handling of these products. as much as 50% or more of the reaction product may be dis solved in a mineral oil to form a concentrate, which can be diluted with lubricating oils as required.
The following examples will serve to illustrate the hereindescribed invention.

improver and carbon and/or varnish inhibitor tion engines during the operation thereof. To
whenadded in small amounts of the order of from 0.1% to 2% to a lubricating oil normally having a poor viscosity index and normally susceptible to form carbon and/or varnish-like deposits in an internal combustion engine during use.
Example 11 The reaction product obtained by mixing an oil solution of octa-decyl-alpha methacrylate polymer with 10% phosphorus pentasulfide and heating the mixture at'380 F. for six hours in an atmosphere of nitrogen, when added to an SAE 20 lubricating oil in small amounts improves the viscosity-temperature coefiicient of the oil and also inhibits the formation of varnish-like deposits in an internal combustion engine during operation.
Example [II An isobutylene polymer having a molecular weight of about 7500 was reacted with about 10% phosphorus pentasulfide at a temperature of about 380 F. for five hours in an atmosphere of nitrogen. The product was then diluted with hexane, filtered, and the hexane removed from the filtrate by distillation. The reaction product was then diluted with ,an equal volume of a motor oil and the mixture blown with steam at a temperature of about 300 F. until the product was substantially odorless.
Example IV An isobutylene polymer having a molecular weight of about 7500 was treated with 10% by weight of phosphorus pentasulfide at a temperature of 180 F. for six hours in an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction product was then neutralized by treating the same with dry potassium hydroxide at a temperature of 340-350" F. for about five hours. The product was then diluted with hexane-filtered and the filtrate freed of the solvent by distillation.
