Still in accordance with this invention, it has been found that, not only may such disulfides be used without modification as extreme pressure lubricants, but that they may be employed as extreme pressure additives for other lubricants. Disulfides satisfactory for such uses may be prepared, according to the present invention, by forming the metallic salts of a mercaptan, or mixture of mercaptans, oxidizing the salt, and removing the more volatile fraction of theproduct,

• the reaction is quantitativeand usually proceeds substantially instantaneously, although some of the less active mercaptans may require a more prolonged periodto allow complete transformation of the mercaptans to the metallic salt.
• the salts so formed areoxidized to form the disulfide. This may be done conveniently in the same alkaline medium in which the salt was formed, an excess of alkali being present.
• the salt may be isolated and subsequently placed in another medium for treatment with oxidizing agents.

• the reaction usually is conducted by gradual addition of the oxidizing agent to a suspension or solution of the mercaptan salt.

• An equivalent amount of the oxidizing agent, or an excess thereof, must be used in order to obtain complete oxidation of'the salt to the disulfide.
• An essential feature of the present invention is the substantially complete removal of volatile components from the product. This is especially important when mixtures of mercaptans, such as those derived from petroleum sources, are used for the preparation of the disulfide. Such mixtures may include inert volatile material or lower mercaptans which form disulfides having too high a volatility to be useful for most lubrieating purposes. The source of merca tans and their configurations will have'a great effect upon the proportion of relatively volatile components in the product.
• the fraction of relatively volatile constituents removed will depend upon the lubricating purpose for which the remainder will be employed. If no fraction is removed the composite product is generally useless as a lubricant, since the lighter fractions will inevitably volatilize during operation to a greater or less degree dependent upon the conditions to which it is subjected. However, for general lubricating purposes, the fraction volatilizing below about C. at 0.2
