Description
United States Patent 3,103,963 GREASE CDMPGSITIGN Bill L. Benge, Pouglrkeepsie, and Terence B. Jordan, Fishkill, N.Y., assignors to Texaco Inc, New York, N.Y., a corporation of Delaware N0 Drawing. Filed Dec. 8, 1961, fier. No. 158,111 (Jlaims. (Cl. 25233.6)
This invention relates to grease compositions and, more particularly, to lubricating grease compositions having improved stability and wear resistance to operations where high temperatures and high pressures are encountered.
It is known from US. 2,852,466 that grease compositions for high temperature operations can be prepared from oleaginous liquids such as, for example, hydrocarbon mineral oils and synthetic oils, containing as the thickener metal salts of N-acylamino organocarboxylic acids. However, none of the grease compositions specifically disclosed in this patent performs satisfactorily at the high temperatures required by Military Specification MIL- G-25760A.
It has now been found that specific sodium salts of N-(C )acylamino organocarboxylic acids in a particular oleaginous liquid exhibit unexpected advantages with respect to stability at high working temperatures and pressures. Accordingly, the grease compositions of the present invention comprise a base fluid containing a major portion of di-tridecyl sebacate and thickened with a sodium salt of N-acyl para aminobenzoic acid wherein the acyl group contains from 10 to 14 carbon atoms. In a particularly outstanding embodiment the acyl group contains 12 carbon atoms. The grease compositions of this invention contain, in addition, minor amounts of a refined mineral oil, an oxidation inhibitor and a rust inhibitor.
The grease compositions of this invention are designed to meet the severe requirements of Military Specification Test MILG25760A, covering a grease composition designed for high speed jet aircraft wheel and roller bearmgs.
Two of the more difficult requirements of this military specification are the CRC bearing protection test and the minimum of 400 hours service life at a 350 F. temperature in the high temperature performance test.
It has been found that grease compositions of the present invention comprise from 60 to 90% of a lubricating oil and 10 to 40% by weight, of a sodium salt of N(C acyl p-aminobenzoic acid as the thickening agent, said lubricating oil consisting of at least a major portion of ditridecyl sebacate. The composition usually contains 0 to 25% and preferably 5 to of a refined hydrocarbon mineral oil, 0.5 to about 5% of a grease corrosion inhibitor and 0.5 to about 5% of an arylamine type oxidation inhibitor, on a weight basis. The lubricating oil portion of the grease composition preferably contains the di-tridecyl sebacate and refined mineral oil in the ratio of about 3 to 7 parts of di-tridecyl sebacate per part of refined mineral oil. Such compositions exhibit superior stability at the high working temperatures encountered in present day high speed machinery in comparison with other grease compositions. The grease compositions of the invention can also contain minor amounts of lubricity agents, coloring materials, stringiness agents, tackiness agents, extreme pressure agents, etc.
A preferred composition is about 12 to percent sodium N-lauroyl p-amino benzoic acid, 10 to 16 percent refined mineral oil, 57 to 76 percent di-tridecyl sebacate, 1 percent N-cocoyl sarcosine corrosion inhibitor and 1 percent N,N-cliphenyl p-phenylene diamine as the oxidation inhibitor, on a weight basis.
Satisfactory arylamine oxidation inhibitors include diphenyl amine, phenyl alpha naphthylamine, p-phenylene diamine and N,N'-diphenyl-p-phenylene diamine. Satisfactory corrosion inhibitors include, for example, lead naphthenate and the N-acyl sarcosines containing from 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the acyl group, such as N-cocoyl sarcosine, N-lauroyl sarcosine and N-stearoyl sarcosine.
Following is a description by way of example of the grease compositions of the present invention.
EXAMPLE 1 A steam heated kettle equipped with a stirring mechanism was charged with.l2.4 parts of para (N-lauroyl) amino benzoic acid, 6.2 parts of a refined paratfin distillate oil, mineral oil A, having a viscosity at F. of 350 SUS, and 31 parts of water. The resulting admixture was stirred and heated to a temperature of to 190 F. and maintained at this temperature for 2 hours. Dur ing the heating operation there was added to the admixture 3.1 parts of sodium hydroxide (49.5 percent strength). Thereafter, the resulting mixture was heated to a temperature of 310 to 320 F. and maintained at this temperature for 3 hours while adding during the heating step over a period of time 12.4 parts of di-tridecyl sebacate. Thereafter, heating was discontinued and an additional 18.6 parts of di-tridecyl sebacate were added to the kettle. The resulting mixture was permitted to cool to a temperature of about 200 F. and the worked pene tration value of the resulting cooled admixture was adjusted to a value of 285-305 by the addition of 48 parts of an admixture of di-tridecyl sebacate and mineral oil A in the ratio of 5 parts of the ester per part of oil. The resulting mixture was stirred and there was added 1 part of N-cocoyl sarcosine and 1 part of N,N' diphenylparaphenylene diamine. The resulting batch was stirred until uniform, milled by 2 passes through a colloid mill and drawn at a temperature of F. The product was a brown colored grease having essentially the composition set forth in Table I hereinbelow.
EXAMPLES 2 TO 5 INCLUSIVE Following the procedure of Example 1 above, grease compositions were prepared in a similar manner. The compositions of the greases are tabulated in Table I below.
EXAMPLE 6 In a manner similar to Example 1, another grease was prepared using the sodium salt of N-stearoyl-p-aminobenzoic acid as the thickener and benzyl tridecyl azelate as the base fluid. Phenothiazine was used as the corrosion inhibitor. The composition of this grease is also shown in Table I below.
EXAMPLE 7 Following the procedure of Example 1 above, a grease was prepared using the sodium salt of N-stearoyl-p-aminobenzoic acid as the thickening agent, di-2-ethylhexyl sebacate as the base fluid and mineral oil B as the hydrocarbon oil. Mineral oil B is a refined paraflin distillate oil having a viscosity at 100 F. of 99.5 SUS. Lead naphthenate and phenyl alpha naphthylamine were used as the inhibitors. The composition of this grease is also shown in Table I below.
