Definitions

  • Another aspect of the invention relates to a process for preparing a magnesium .alkoxide-carbonate complex, said complex being used in preparation of the dispersion of the magnesium-containing inorganic compound. Still another ;aspect of the invention relates to the magnesium alkoxide-carbonate complex, itself.
  • the oil In heavy-duty detergent type lubricating oil composi tions for use in diesel and like internal combustion engines, at least two requirements must be met by such oils (in addition to lubricity, stability, and the like) if a high degree of engine cleanliness is to be maintained. First, the oil must possess the power to disperse insolubles formed by fuel combustion or oil oxidation, or both; and second, the oil must be capable of neutralizing acidic lacquer precursors formed by either oil oxidation or interaction of the oil with sulfur acids produced from fuel combustion, or both of these conditions.
  • lubricating oil com positions used in marine diesel engines have a high degree of basicity. This requirement is caused by the use of fuels having a high sulfur content, which, in turn, means a larger amount of acidic combustion prod ucts. Of course, it is possible to alleviate this prob lem through the use of lower sulfur fuels. However, the economics of the situation makes it desirable to use a high sulfur fuel in conjunction with a lubricating composition capable of neutralizing the acidic combustion products.
  • compositions of the present invention are generally useful in lubricating compositions for use in internal combustion engines. They are also useful in corrosion inhibiting compositions and particularly in fuel compositions containing vanadium. Since the compositions ordinarily contain a large amount of excess basicity, they are especially useful in marine lubricating compositions.
  • Van Ess et al. in U.S. Patent No. 2,585,520 disclose a process for the preparation of a basic salt by first combining in an anhydrous state the normal salt of the acidic material and an alcoholate of the desired metal. The mass is heat-treated for a substantial length of time, filtered, and then the alcoholate is hydrolyzed to the hydroxide for the purpose of providing a basic product.
  • U.S. Patent No. 2,895,913 to Carlyle et al. discloses a process for preparing a stable dispersion of a basic magnesium-containing compound in a lubricating oil composition.
  • an alkanol insoluble magnesium alkoxide is formed by reacting magnesium with an excess of an alk-anol.
  • the resulting magnesium alkoxide is then reacted with carbon dioxide to form an alkanol soluble magnesium alkoxide-carbon dioxide complex.
  • the magnesium :alkoxide-carbon dioxide complex is admixed with a lubricating oil, an oilsoluble dispersing agent, and water. This admixture is heated to decompose the complex, remove the alkanol and obtain an oil-insoluble magnesium compound, wherein the particle size is less than 0.25 micron.
  • U.S. Patent No. 2,920,105 to Kluge et al. discloses a process for making oil-soluble hyperbasic alkaline earth metal sulfonates.
  • the process of these patentees comprises formiug a reaction mixture of an oil-soluble normal alkaline earth metal sulfonate in a water immiscible organic medium and an alkaline earth metal lower alkoxy ethanolate in a vehicle of the corresponding alkoxy ethanol, the mole ratio of said alkoxy ethanolate to normal sulfonate being between about 0.5 :1 and about 7:1 or even higher, said normal sulfonate starting material con- ,taining not substantially more than about the stoichiometric amount of liquid Water needed to complete hydrolysis of the alkoxy ethanolate starting material to the corresponding alkaline earth metal hydroxide, stripping the mixture at temperatures of 225 and 450 F., bringing the total quantity of water introduced into the reaction mixture to an amount suflicient for
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide, as a composition of matter, a magnesium alkoxidecarbonate complex.
  • the present invention relates to a magnesium alkoxide-carbonate complex having the following formula:
  • R is either a C to C alkyl group or an organic radical of the formula wherein R- is a C to C alkyl group, and x is from 0.5
  • This complex is particularly useful for preparing a stable dispersion of a basic, magnesium-containing, inorganic compound in a nonvolatile carrier.
  • Another aspect of the present invention relates to a process for preparing the oil-soluble magnesium alkoxidecarbonate complex.
  • the process comprises:
  • A Reacting magnesium with a glycol ether, which may be either a monoether of ethylene glycol or a monoether of diethylene glycol, to form a magnesium alkoxide
  • B Reacting the magnesium alkoxide with carbon dioxide to form an oil-soluble magnesium alkoXide-carbonate complex.
  • Still another aspect of the present invention relates to a process for preparing a stable dispersion of a basic, magnesium-containing inorganic compound in a nonvolatile carrier, werein the process comprises:
  • oil-insoluble, magnesiumcontaining compound is in the form of particles having diameters of less than 0.25 micron.
  • a principal advantage of the present invention is that dispersions having very high base numbers, in other words a very high degree of excess basicity, are obtained. As mentioned previously, these high-base number dispersions have a special utility in marine diesel lubricating oil compositions. I believe that these highbase number dispersions are obtained because of the particular intermediate used in my invention.
  • My invention differs from the teachings of the patents to Kluge et al. in several aspects.
  • my process employs a carbonated magnesium alkoxide, whereas Kluge et al. use magnesium alkoxide.
  • my process uses a stoichiometric excess of water to hydrolyze the carbonated magnesium alkoxide, whereas Kluge et al. use not substantially more than the stoichiometric amount of water.
  • Kluge et al. use higher temperatures for the overbasing step than is necessary in my process.
  • the magnesium used in the process may be in form of bars, rods, turnings, or powder.
  • Suitable glycol ethers for use in the process include monoethers of ethylene glycol and monoethers of diethylene glycol. While any of these glycol ethers are suitable, generally I prefer not to use those containing above about 8 carbon atoms, since such glycol ethers have a high boiling point and require more heat for their removal.
  • Preferred glycol ethers are the monoethyl ether of ethylene glycol and the monomethyl ether of ethylene glycol. These materials are available commercially under the trademarks Cellosolve and methyl Cellosolve. The monomethyl ether of diethylene glycol is available commercially under the trademark Carbitol.
  • the monoethers of ethylene glycol are also known as alkoxy alkanols, and more specifically as alkoxy etha nols. These materials have the generic formula ROCH CH OH where R is a C to C group. Similarly, the monoalkylether of diethylene glycol has the generic formula HOCH CH OCH CH OR, where R is a C to 0., alkyl group.
  • non-volatile carriers may be used in my process.
  • the principal requisite desired in the non-volatile carrier is that it will dissolve the dispersing agents used in the process.
  • examples of non-volatile carriers which may be used include mineral lubricating oil obtained by any of the conventional refining procedures, vegetable oils such as corn oil, cottonseed oil, castor oil, etc., animal oils such as lard oil, sperm oil, etc., and synthetic oils such as polymers of propylene, polyoxyalkylenes, polyoxypropylene, dicarboxylic acid esters such as esters of adipic and azelaic acids with alcohols such as butyl, 2-ethy1 hexyl and dodecyl alcohols, and esters of acids of phosphorus such as diethyl ester of decanephosphonic acid and tricresyl phosphate.
  • the non-volatile carriers may be diluted with a solvent to reduce the viscosity.
  • Suitable solvents include petro leum naphtha or hydrocarbons such as hexane, heptane, octane, benzene, toluene, or xylene.
  • oil-soluble dispersing agents may be used.
  • suitable dispersing agents include the oil-soluble sulfonic acids, carboxylic acids, phosphorus sulfide-treated olefins, and metal salts thereof.
  • Preferred dispersing agents include the oil-soluble sulfonic acids, carboxylic acids, and metal salts thereof.
  • sulfonates which are suitable are oil-soluble and include alkyl sulfonates, alkaryl sulfonates, the so-called mahogany or natural soaps, and the like.
  • the mahogany soaps include, particularly, the oil-soluble aromatic sulfonates from petroleum. Many of the aromatic sulfonates have cycloalkyl (i.e., naphthenic) groups in the side chains attached to the benzene ring.
  • the mahogany soaps may include nonaromatic sulfonates produced in conventional sulfuric acid refining of lubricating oil distillates and from the industrial use of fuming sulfuric acid in the refining of petroleum.
  • the hydrocarbon portion of the sulfonate have a molecular weight between about 350 and 1,000. Preferably, this molecular weight is between 400 and 700.
  • Particularly useful sulfonates include diwaxbenzene sulfonates, diwaxtoluene sulfonates, and postdodecylbenzene sulfonates.
  • Postdodecylbenzene which consists of monoalkylbenzenes and dialkylbenzeues in the approximate mole ratio of 2 to 3, has typical properties as follows:
  • sulfonates which may be used in the process of this invention include, for example, monoand poly-wax substituted naphthalene sulfonates, dinonyl ifaphthalene sulfonates, diphenyl ether sulfonates, naphthalene disulfide sulfonates, diphenyl amine sulfonates, dicetyl thianthrene sulfonates, dilauryl beta-naphthol sulfonates, dicapryl nitro-naphthalene sulfonates, unsaturated paraffin wax sulfonates, hydroxy substituted parafiin wax sulfonates, tetra-amylene sulfonates, mono and polychloro-substituted paraffin wax sulfonates, nitrosoparaffin Wax sulfonates; cycloaliphatic sulfonates, such as la
  • Suitable carboxylic acids include naphthenic acids such as the substituted cyclopentane monocarboxylic acids, the substituted cyclohexane monocarboxylic acids and the substituted aliphatic polycyclic monocarbo xylic acids containing at least 15 carbon atoms.
  • Suitable oil-soluble fatty acids are those containing at least 8 carbon atoms.
  • fatty acids which are liquids at ambient temperatures down to about 15 C.
  • Specific examples include 2-ethyl hexanoic acid, pelargonic acid, oleic acid, palmitoleic acid, linoleic acid and ricinoleic acid.
  • Naturally occurring mixtures of predominately unsaturated fatty acids, such as tall oil fatty acids, are particularly suitable.
  • carboxylic acid soap instead of using the foregoing carboxylic acid soap as such, we may form those soaps in situ by adding the corresponding carboxylic acid to the mixture.
  • the phosphorus sulfide treated olefins (by the term olefins We means to include also olefin polymers, e.g., polyisobutylene) and their oil-soluble metal salts which are suitable for use include those customarily used in lubricating oil formulations as corrosion inhibitors and/ or detergents. Specifically, they include the potassium-polyisobutylene-phosphorus sulfide products described by US. Patent 2,316,080, issued on April 6, 1943, to Loane and Gaynor, and a similar material containing no metal made by addition of a phosphorus sulfide to Wax olefins, as described in US. Patent 2,516,119, issued on July 25,
  • the process conditions used in the preparation of the magnesium alkoxide-carbonate complex will now be discussed.
  • the glycol ether employed should have a water content of less than about 0.5 percent. Otherwise, there is a tendency for the reaction to be inhibited.
  • the amount of the glycol ether used in the process can be varied over wide limits. The amounts used, however, should be in excess over that required to react with the magnesium. Stated another W21 I prefer to use an amount which is sufiicient to dissolve the magnesium alkoxide-carbonate complex to give a final concentration of magnesium in the solution of between about 5 to 8 percent. Satisfactory results can be obtained with the magnesium content varying within the range of about 1 to 10 percent.
  • reaction of magnesium and the glycol ether is strongly exothermic (heat of reaction approximates 70,000 B.t.u. per pound-mole), it is necessary to provide cooling on the reaction vessel in order to control the reaction.
  • the reaction is generally kept at reflux temperature until complete.
  • magnesium alkoxide the reaction product of the magnesium and the glycol ether
  • the magnesium alkoxide-carbonate complex I have found it best to employ from about 0.5 to about 1.5, preferably from about 0.75 to about 1.0, moles of carbon dioxide per mole of magnesium alkoxide. I have found that a lower ratio gives a gel formation, whereas a higher ratio gives inorganic insolubles and more viscous products.
  • the amount of the different components used in my process can be varied widely.
  • the oil-soluble dispersing agent varies from about 20 to about 55 percent of the total composition
  • the non-volatile carrier varies from about 40 to 76 percent
  • the amount of the magnesium-containing inorganic compound varies from about 3.0 to 30 percent. The latter could probably be more accurately stated as to magnesium content.
  • the amount of the magnesium in the final composition varies from about 1.24 to about 9.4 percent. All percentage figures given above are by weight.
  • the hydrolysis reaction is as follows:
  • the stoichiometric requirement is 2 moles of Water per mole of magnesium alkoxidecarbonate complex.
  • a stoichiometric excess must be employed with a suitable range being from about 2.50 to about 4.50 moles of water per mole of alkoxide-carbonate complex, and with a preferable range being from about 2.8 to about 3 .5 moles.
  • the overbasing step (that is, the addition of the magnesium intermediate to the dispersing agent solution) is conducted over a wide range of temperatures, generally at about 25 to about 100 C., and more preferably in the range of about 35 to about 65 C. Temperatures outside the broad range are not used generally since they can lead to gel formation or the formation of inorganic insolubles.
  • the relative amounts of the dilferent components employed in the process are dependent upon the desired percent actives and the base numbers of the final composi- (The term percent active refers to the amount of the dispersing agent present in the composition.)
