ALUMINUM BROMIDE Frederick E; Frey; Bartlesville, Okla., assignor 'to Phillips Petroleum Company, a corporation of-r Delaware No Drawing. Application- Junea22. 1949; I Serial No. 100,753
. Thisinvention relates to aprocess for the treatment of certain paraffinic materials, for example, a lubricating oil or a wax, to improve certain of its important characteristics. In one of its aspects, the invention relates to the treatment of a.
refined lubricating oil or a-waX to lower its pour point employing a novel process which presents certain features enabling great improvements in quality of the treated oil product. In another of its aspects the invention relates to the provision of a novel process employing certain critical conditions essential to obtain the said improvements in quality or characteristics of a refined lubrieating oil or wax. In still another aspect of the invention it relates to the effecting of certain novel changes within a lubricating oil or wax fraction employing a catalystv which is the sole agent now known which can cause efiectuation of said changes. Among the characteristics of such a material which can be significantly improved, pour point mentionedabove, and viscosity index especially are'tobe noted.
Among the objects of the invention is to provide a process for lowering the, pour point of a parafiinic material suchas a waxylubri-cating oilwithout submitting the oil .to any filtration or otherwax removal'operation. i
Also, among the objects of the presentinvention, is to provide a process. for, the lowering of thepour point of a parafiinic material such as a waxy lubricating oil while at thesame time mate-.
rially and significantly increasing its viscosity index.
Other objects and advantages are apparent from this disclosure and its appended claims.
The process of the present invention is preeminently applicable to .the treatment of .a lubricatingoil containingrefractory wax constituents to convertsaid constituents in a manner and to extent such that a substantial lowering. of its pour point is accomplished. Accordingly the invention will be described'making reference to the treat. ment of high-melting .parafiin-containing stockssuch, as waxy lubricatingoil base stocks of undesirably high pour point. i
' According to the present invention a paraffinic material of undesirably high pour point, such as a waxy lubricating oil base stock, or parafiin wax, is admixed with a substantial quantity of aluminum bromide to form an homogeneous mass which is then allowed to stand or'is agitated for a number-of .hours depending upon the extent of treatment to be effected. 1
Preferably, before admixing;,.,the: aluminum.
bromide with 171383011, it is treated with analumi- 13 Claims. (01:19am I k num halidaman acid-,. or othermaterial to remove undesirable'constituentssuch as aromatic compounds and. smdgaisrmmg materials.
By effecting the. treatment referred to. in the. immediately,- preceding paragraph, not onlyis the.
processof .the invention rendered more effective to reducethepour point ofthe oil, but also there can be. observed, an important increase in its v15; cosity index. Thus accordingto the invention; as"
an important feature thereof, is the combination of the step of treatingthe-oil to remove undesirable. constituents of the nature or character .of
thosej ust described prior to admixing the alumi-.
num bromide. therewith. v
, Toenhance the action of the aluminum bromide,-a low-boiling saturated. hydrocarbon materialcan be admixed with the aluminum bromideoil mass. According tothe invention, among the low;boilinghydrocarbon materials which are thus employed are; the branched-chain paraffin with from .fourto about twelve carbon atoms, for example ,isopentane, the. naphthenes with from. six to. about .ten carbon atoms, for example, methylcyclopentane, ormixtures thereof. Usually about ten -to..about one hundred per cent by weight, of the paraffinic'material, of low boiling hydrocarbon will be employed to assist the conversion of the waxy constituents of theoil'by the aluminum bromide catalyst.
"The homogeneous mass of oil, catalyst and low boiling hydrocarbon-is allowed to stand or is agitated fora time sufficient to effect the desired extent of conversion". Usually a period of standing or agitation of from about ten hours to about onehundred hours at a temperature in the. approximate range of 10 C. to C. will be sufiicientto satisfactorily lower the pour point of the oil: It "will" be understood, however, that the precise period of time will depend upon the temperature of the treatment, the nature of the oil being treated, the quantity of catalyst employed and evenupon the exact nature and quantity of the-low boiling hydrocarbon in the mass.
The quantitygofthe aluminum bromide catalyst employed is to be in the range of about ten to about fifty per cent by .Weight of the oil treated.
The exact nature of the reaction or reactions occurringduring the conversion of the waxy constituents of'the-oil. being treated with the aluminum bromide catalyst cannot be stated. However, it appears from a careful study of the data presented that isomerization of the waxy molecules playsa part in the conversion. Although some disproportionation appears to occur resulting inutheincrease'd quantity of the low-boiling hydrocarbons recovered, it is believed equally clear that the lowering of the pour point and the increases in viscosity index which have been accomplished are very likely, if not actually, due to isomerization of the waxy molecules, as stated. The use of aluminum chloride did not result in a lowering of the pour point of any of the paraffinic materials treated.
The following examples illustrate the invention. Parts are by weight. Pour points were determined by ASTM (D97-39) method.
EXAMPLES Eaiample I A mixture was prepared of 100 parts of a hexadecane concentrate having a freezing point (pour point) of 17.3" C., 60 parts of 95 per cent methylcyclopentane and 32 parts of anhydrous alumi-- num bromide. At the end of 40 hours stirring at 60-70 C., a sludge was separated which contained 2.0 parts hydrocarbon and 7.7 parts aluminum bromide. The remainder was washed free of dissolved aluminum bromide and was vacuum distilled. There was obtained 69.6 parts low-boiling hydrocarbons, including all the added methylcyclopentane, and 85.3 parts of a hexadecane concentrate boiling about 120 C. at 3-5 mm. Its freezing point (pour point) was 10.0 C., a reduction of 7.3 C. from the original.
Example II v A mixture was prepared of 100 parts of a hexadecane concentrate having a freezing point (pour point) of 1'7.1 C., 41.5 parts of isopentane and 33 parts of anhydrous aluminum bromide. At the end of 27 hours stirring at 25-35 C., a sludge was separated which contained 1.3 parts hydrocarbon and 5.0 parts aluminum bromide. The remainder was washed free of dissolved aluminum bromide and was vacuum distilled. There was obtained 61.6 parts low-boiling hydrocarbons, including all the added isopentane, and 76.4 parts of a hexadecane concentrate boiling about 120 C. at 3-5 mm. Its freezing point (pour point). was 14.9 C., a reduction of 2.2 C- i from the original.
Ewample III A mixture of 100 parts of a parafiin wax which solidified at 51-55'C. (pour point), and 27 parts of 95 per cent methylcyclopentane was stirred for 48 hours near 60 C. and then for 49 hours near 100 C. with 33 parts anhydrous aluminum bromide which was added in three nearly equal portions at 0, 23, and 30.5 hours. A sludge was separated which contained 7.1 parts of hydrocarbon and 1'7 parts of aluminum bromide. The remainder was washed free of dissolved aluminum bromide and was vacuum distilled. There was obtained 34.6 parts low-boiling hydrocarbons including the added methylcyclopentane and 75.6 parts of residue boiling about 136 C. at 6 mm. It solidified at LO-53 C. (pour point), an average reduction of 7 C. from the original.
Example IV An SAE 20 lubricating oil from which aromatics and sludge-forming materials had been removed was treated with aluminum bromide in accordance with this invention to lower the pour point. To 55.1 parts by weight of the oil were added 22.6 parts by weight of isopentane and 22.3 parts by weight of aluminum bromide. The mixture was vigorously agitated at 90100 F.
4 for 48 hours. The oil was then washed with water to remove dissolved aluminum bromide.
" The washed oil was dried with anhydrous potassium carbonate. The dried oil was topped at 250 F. and 1 mm. pressure to remove light hydrocarbons. Properties of the oil before and'after the aluminum bromide treatment are shown in the following tabulation:
It is noteworthy that the treatment of the oil with aluminum bromide and isopentane in accordance with this invention reduced the pour point 20 degrees and increased the viscosity index.
Reasonable variation and modification are possible within the scope of the foregoing disclosure and the appended claims to the invention, the essence of which is that, under certain specific conditions, specifically and critically aluminum bromide can be employed to reduce the pour point of a parafiinic material and at the same time to increase its viscosity index.
