Definitions
- lubricating oil compositions of. thisinvention are resistant to oxidation .and noncorrosive to silver wearing surfaces, as well as to the conventional metal alloy surfaces.
- Such lubricating oil compositions contain particular bi-metal saltsof dithiophosphoric acids.
- oils of lubricating viscosity are now subjected to higher temperatures and greater conditions of wear than those which vexistedonly a relatively few years ago.
- Such changes in lubricating requirements are due primarily to the many advances which have occurred in the design of automotive equipment. For example, diesel engines used in railway service arenow equipped with bearings lined with pure silver metal. Also, many auto- United States Patent lice 2,945,810 Patented July .19, 1960 Thus, the oxidation and silver corrosion resistant oilcompure silver.
- the .term' bi-metal salts :of .dithiophos tpjhoric acids means :the product which is obtained by reacting'an :al'kaline'earth metal oxide or hydroxide with a metal salt of an ester of dithiophosphoric acid, the
- Metal salts of thiophosphoric acids have long been used as additives for lubricating oils. These salts have been extremely efiective in inhibiting oxidation of oils and corrosion of alloy bearings.
- dithiophosphate salts were found to have another useful property, that of imparting extreme-pressure properties to oils. Because of these favorable characteristics, dithiophosphate salts have been outstanding among lubricating oil additives.
- RO-P-s- M droxidereactants used in the formation of :the bi-metal dithiophosphates.
- At least one of the metals of the -bimetal dithiophospha-tes is an alkaline earth metal.
- the R radicals and the R radicals can be derived from straight chain or branched chain alcohols containing at least 8 carbon atoms, .or alkylphenols wherein the alkyl radicals .contain a total of at least 6 carbon atoms; for example, n-octanol, Z-ethylhexanol, 2-propylpentanol, decanol, undecanol, vdodecanol, hexadecanol, octadecanol, vdipropylphenol, hexylphenol, dibutylphenol, decylpheno'l, dodeeylphenol, hexadecylphenol, octadecylphenol, dioctylphenol, 2-phenylhexanol, etc.
- esters of dithiophosphon'c acids which are reacted with the alkaline earth metal oxides or hydroxides are dioctyl dithiophosphoric acid; octyldecyl dithiophosphoric acid; didecyl dithiophosphoric acid; didodecyl di-th iophosphorio acidydihexadecyl dithiophosphoric acid; dioctadecyl dithiophosphoric acid; di(decylphenyl) dithiophosphoric acid; di(am-ylphenyl)- di-thiophosphoric acid; di (dodecylphenyl) d-ithiophosphoric acid, etc.
- the alkaline earth metal oxide (or hydroxide) reactant is a barium oxide (or hydroxide)
- the metal salt of dithiophosphoric acid is a zinc salt of esters of dithiophosphoric acid
- each of the ester radicals i.e., the R and R of the formula hereinabove
- the ester radicals are derived from alcohols or alkylphenols containing not less than 12, carbon atoms, and not more than 25 carbon atoms (i.e., it is preferred that the total number of carbon atoms in the ester radicals-is 24 to 50).
- M is a metal
- the metal of the alkaline earth metal oxide and hydroxide reactants will be termed secondary metal
- the metal of the. dithiophosphate reactant will be termed primary dithiophos phate metal. 7
- Suitable base oils include a wide variety of lubricating oils such as naphthenic base, paraffin base, and mixed base mineral oils; synthetic oils, e.g., alkylene polymers, such as polymers of propylene, butylene, etc., and mixtures thereof; alkylene oxide type polymers; dicarboxylic acid esters; liquid esters of phosphorus and silicon; and alkyl aromatic hydfocarbdns;
- the above base oils may be used individually as such or in various combinations (wherever miscible or whenever made so by the use of mutual solvents).
- bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids are used in lubricating oils in amounts sufliicient to inhibit oxidation thereof; that is, amounts of 0.25% to 20%, by weight, preferably from 1.5% to 10% by Weight. Stated in other terms, the amounts of these bi-metal dithiophosphates may be expressed as millimols per kilogram" of finished oil, based on the phosphorus content.
- the amount of bi-metal dithiophosphate is ex- Expressed in such terms, the amount of bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids used in lubricating oils can be from 1 millimol to 50 millimols of phosphorus per kilogram of finished oil, preferably from 4 millimols to 25 millimols.
- the simple neutral metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids of the prior art can be prepared by methods known heretofore. For example, a mixture of the desired alcohol or alkylphenol and phosphorus pentasulfide is reacted with or without a solvent (e.g., petroleum naphtha) at 100 F. to 200 F. until the dithiophosphoric acid is formed. The crude acid mixture is then filtered to remove unreacted phosphorus pentasulfide, after which the resulting acid is neutralized with a metal oxide (e.g., zinc oxide) to form the metal dithiophosphate.
- a solvent e.g., petroleum naphtha
- Such simple metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids can also be prepared by reacting the dithiophosphoric acid with sodium hydroxide to form the sodium salt, then precipitating the desired metal salt from a solution of the sodium salt by the addition of a metal chloride (e.g., zinc chloride or calcium chloride).
- a metal chloride e.g., zinc chloride or calcium chloride.
- the bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids are prepared by reacting a metal diester dithiophosphate with an alkaline earth metal oxide (or hydroxide) in a solvent (e.g., a lubricating oil), followed by heating to a temperature ranging from 200 F. to 450 F. (preferably from 250 F. to 375 F.), and filtering the resulting admixture.
- a solvent e.g., a lubricating oil

LUBRICATING OIL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING BI-METAL DITHIOPHOSPHATES James-H. Walker, Richmond, Calif., assignor to California Research Corporation, San Francisco, Calif., a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Filed Dec. 31, 1956, Ser. No. 631,464 3 Claims. (Cl. 252-325 This invention :pertains to lubricating oil compositions which are particularly beneficial to use where silver wearing surfaces are concerned.v
In particular, lubricating oil compositions of. thisinvention are resistant to oxidation .and noncorrosive to silver wearing surfaces, as well as to the conventional metal alloy surfaces. Such lubricating oil compositions contain particular bi-metal saltsof dithiophosphoric acids.
Generally, oils of lubricating viscosity are now subjected to higher temperatures and greater conditions of wear than those which vexistedonly a relatively few years ago. Such changes in lubricating requirements are due primarily to the many advances which have occurred in the design of automotive equipment. For example, diesel engines used in railway service arenow equipped with bearings lined with pure silver metal. Also, many auto- United States Patent lice 2,945,810 Patented July .19, 1960 Thus, the oxidation and silver corrosion resistant oilcompure silver.
By the use of the particular bi-metal dithiophosphates of this invention, oxidation-resistant lubricants noncor- Iosive to silver have been obtained. The "particular reasons underlying the effectiveness of these particular dithiophosphates herein as inhibitors for lubricating oil compositions. is .not :known'.
'As used herein, the .term' bi-metal salts :of .dithiophos tpjhoric acids means :the product which is obtained by reacting'an :al'kaline'earth metal oxide or hydroxide with a metal salt of an ester of dithiophosphoric acid, the
metals being dissimilar.
The metal salts of esters of dithiophosp'horic acids of the prior'art which .r'eact withalkaline earth metal oxides mobiles have valve lifters which are subject to such high loads that the bearing surfaces operate under conditions approaching boundary lubrication. Thus, new requirements have been imposedonlubricating oils so that oils which were satisfactoryjust a few years ago are now inadequate for proper lubrication.
Metal salts of thiophosphoric acids, particularly alkaline earth metal and zinc salts of alkyl or alk'ylaryl dithiophosphoric acids, have long been used as additives for lubricating oils. These salts have been extremely efiective in inhibiting oxidation of oils and corrosion of alloy bearings. In more recent years, dithiophosphate salts were found to have another useful property, that of imparting extreme-pressure properties to oils. Because of these favorable characteristics, dithiophosphate salts have been outstanding among lubricating oil additives.
Even though the salts .of dithiophosphoric acids have such virtues as listed hereinabove, these salts have not been used universally because of one serious drawback; that is, such salts cause severe corrosion of silver in engines employing silver wearing surfaces. This attack of silver is believed due to the sulfur of the dithiophosphates. This sulfur attack on silver has often, been so severe in railroad diesel engines as to render these engines unfit for service after a comparatively short period of operation. In attempts to take advantage of the oxidation and corrosion inhibiting properties of the thiophosphate salts, the petroleum industry has spenta great deal of effort to overcome the deficiency with regard to silver. Although silver protective agents have been developed to minimize this sulfur attack by the thiophosphate salts,
isueh additives have not beenentirely satisfactory.
and hydroxides to :form the new bi-metal basic dithiophosphates herein are represented by the following formula:
RO-P-s- M droxidereactants, used in the formation of :the bi-metal dithiophosphates. At least one of the metals of the -bimetal dithiophospha-tes is an alkaline earth metal.
The R radicals and the R radicals can be derived from straight chain or branched chain alcohols containing at least 8 carbon atoms, .or alkylphenols wherein the alkyl radicals .contain a total of at least 6 carbon atoms; for example, n-octanol, Z-ethylhexanol, 2-propylpentanol, decanol, undecanol, vdodecanol, hexadecanol, octadecanol, vdipropylphenol, hexylphenol, dibutylphenol, decylpheno'l, dodeeylphenol, hexadecylphenol, octadecylphenol, dioctylphenol, 2-phenylhexanol, etc.
Examples of esters of dithiophosphon'c acids which are reacted with the alkaline earth metal oxides or hydroxides are dioctyl dithiophosphoric acid; octyldecyl dithiophosphoric acid; didecyl dithiophosphoric acid; didodecyl di-th iophosphorio acidydihexadecyl dithiophosphoric acid; dioctadecyl dithiophosphoric acid; di(decylphenyl) dithiophosphoric acid; di(am-ylphenyl)- di-thiophosphoric acid; di (dodecylphenyl) d-ithiophosphoric acid, etc.
Improved oil solubility of the resulting bi-metal dithiophosphate is obtained when the alkaline earth metal oxide (or hydroxide) reactant is a barium oxide (or hydroxide), the metal salt of dithiophosphoric acid is a zinc salt of esters of dithiophosphoric acid, and wherein each of the ester radicals (i.e., the R and R of the formula hereinabove) are derived from alcohols or alkylphenols containing not less than 12, carbon atoms, and not more than 25 carbon atoms (i.e., it is preferred that the total number of carbon atoms in the ester radicals-is 24 to 50).
M is a metal For purposes of simplification, the metal of the alkaline earth metal oxide and hydroxide reactants will be termed secondary metal, and the metal of the. dithiophosphate reactant will be termed primary dithiophos phate metal. 7
The particular bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids with which I am concerned have molecular weights of such magnitude as to indicate the formation 'of complex polymeric type compounds. Molecular weight data for these compounds, as determined by sedimentation rates in an ultracentrifuge, show that the molecular Weights are in the range of 150,000 to 550,000.
Suitable base oils include a wide variety of lubricating oils such as naphthenic base, paraffin base, and mixed base mineral oils; synthetic oils, e.g., alkylene polymers, such as polymers of propylene, butylene, etc., and mixtures thereof; alkylene oxide type polymers; dicarboxylic acid esters; liquid esters of phosphorus and silicon; and alkyl aromatic hydfocarbdns;
The above base oils may be used individually as such or in various combinations (wherever miscible or whenever made so by the use of mutual solvents).
The bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids are used in lubricating oils in amounts sufliicient to inhibit oxidation thereof; that is, amounts of 0.25% to 20%, by weight, preferably from 1.5% to 10% by Weight. Stated in other terms, the amounts of these bi-metal dithiophosphates may be expressed as millimols per kilogram" of finished oil, based on the phosphorus content. That is, the amountof bi-metal dithiophosphate is ex- Expressed in such terms, the amount of bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids used in lubricating oils can be from 1 millimol to 50 millimols of phosphorus per kilogram of finished oil, preferably from 4 millimols to 25 millimols.
In the preparation of the bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids, the simple neutral metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids of the prior art can be prepared by methods known heretofore. For example, a mixture of the desired alcohol or alkylphenol and phosphorus pentasulfide is reacted with or without a solvent (e.g., petroleum naphtha) at 100 F. to 200 F. until the dithiophosphoric acid is formed. The crude acid mixture is then filtered to remove unreacted phosphorus pentasulfide, after which the resulting acid is neutralized with a metal oxide (e.g., zinc oxide) to form the metal dithiophosphate. Such simple metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids can also be prepared by reacting the dithiophosphoric acid with sodium hydroxide to form the sodium salt, then precipitating the desired metal salt from a solution of the sodium salt by the addition of a metal chloride (e.g., zinc chloride or calcium chloride).
The bi-metal salts of esters of dithiophosphoric acids (e.g., barium-zinc diester dithiophosphates) are prepared by reacting a metal diester dithiophosphate with an alkaline earth metal oxide (or hydroxide) in a solvent (e.g., a lubricating oil), followed by heating to a temperature ranging from 200 F. to 450 F. (preferably from 250 F. to 375 F.), and filtering the resulting admixture. The following examples illustrate the preparation of lubricating oil compositions of this invention.
EXAMPLE 1 A mixture of 5 pounds (0.032 pound mol) of barium oxide (92% purity) and 125 pounds (0.0625 pound mol) of a zinc di(alkylphenyl) dithiophosphate (wherein the alkyl radical is derived from propylene polymers having an average of 12 carbon atoms) containing 3.27% zinc, 3.0% phosphorus, and 5.78% sulfur, was incorporated in a California solvent-refined paraflin base oil having a viscosity of about 140 SSU at 100 F. The whole mixture was heated in a kettle with agitation at 300-310 F. for a period of 1.4 hours. 79 pounds (0.245 pound mol) of barium hydroxide octahydrate (98% purity) was then .pressed as millimols of phosphorus per kilogram of oil.
as silver corrosion inhibitors.
'2,945,s1o p I e v acharged at the rate of 20 pounds per hour while the temperature was maintained at 300 F. to 310 F. The barium to-zinc mol ratio of this charge was 4.43 to 1.0. The pH of the charge (determined in a solvent consisting of 40%, by volume, of ethyl alcohol; 40% ethyl ether; and 20% water) increased from 4 to 13+. The whole mixture was agitated at 300 F. for another hour, with nitrogen flowing through the bottom of the kettle to remove residual moisture. This was followed by a final drying period of 30 minutes at 300 F. under a vacuum of 25 inches of mercury. To this mixture was added 5 pounds of Celite filter aid, after which the mixture was cooled to 250 F. and filtered.
The resulting product analyzed 1.76% zinc, 16.73% barium, 1.63% phosphorus, and 3.26% sulfur. The mol ratios based on zinc, as one, were as follows: barium, 4.52; phosphorus, 1.95; and sulfur, 3.78. The viscosity was 3838 SSU at F., and SSU at 210 F.
The barium-Zinc dialkylphenyl dithiophosphate product thus formed Was isolated from the lubricating oil concentrate as follows: 100 grams of a lubricating oil solution of the concentrate was dissolved in 100 ml. of benzene. 300 ml. of CP acetone was added to precipitate out the compound. The solid fraction precipitating out was separated and redissolved in 100 ml. of benzene and reprecipitated with 300 ml. of CP acetone.
Table I hereinbelow sets forth the analysis of the reprecipitated solid, again using the zinc content as the base for determining the molratio.
Table II hereinbelow presents data showing the effectiveness of the bi-metal dithiophosphates of this invention The silver strip test which was used is described as follows:
A silver metal strip having the dimensions of 2 /2 inches by inch by inch was first cleaned with a wire brush until the strip was highly polished. The strip was weighed and the weight recorded. This highly polished silver strip was then placed in a 600 ml. beaker in such a manner that the strip was completely immersed when 300 grams of the oil being tested was poured into the beaker. The oil was stirred at a temperature of 300 F. for 20 hours, at which time the silver strip was removed and cleaned, first with chloroform, then with petroleum ether. The appearance of the strip was noted. Those strips which had been severely attacked were quite black. The tested silver strip was washed in 15% aqueous solution of potassium cyanide for about 5 minutes to remove the sulfide film adhering to the strip. After the strip had been washed with potassium cyanide and dried, it was weighed. The difference in weight of the original strip and the strip after the potassium cyanide wash was noted and recorded as the weight loss due to corrosion.
The base oil of the compositions was a 60 V1. SAE 30 California base oil.
The amounts of the several components of the oil compositions are set forth in terms of millimols of additive per kilogram of finished oil, as determined by the metal content. For example, when a calcium sulfonate is expressed as being present in an amount of 10 millimols per kilogram, it is meant that the sulfonate was present in such an amount that the calcium content was 10 millimols per kilogram of finished oil.
