Description

United States Patent "'ce 3,151,083 LUBRICATING GILS Arthur Donald Shellard, Woiring, and Donald K. Giimour, (Ihester, England, assignors to Shell (Bil Company, a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Fiied Aug. 12, 1558, Ser. No. 754,694 (Ilairns priority, ap lication Great Britain, Dec. Ill, 1957, 38,390/57 6 Claims. (Cl. 252-55) This invention relates to an improved process for improving the properties of hydrocarbon lubricating oils and improved lubricating oil compositions. More particularly it relates to a process of increasing the spreading pressure of mineral lubricating oils especially refined oils, on solid surfaces to a high level and providing a mineral lubricating oil of high spreading pressure which is maintained during use.
It is known that an important factor affecting the ability of a mineral lubricating oil to lubricate effectively various machine elements such as internal combustion engines, gears, etc. is the spreading pressure of the mineral lubricating oil on the solid surface involved. The higher the spreading pressure of an oil the more efficiently does it function as a lubricant under various adverse engine operating conditions. Various methods of increasing the spreading pressure of mineral lubricating oils on solid surfaces are known, such as by use of certain additives such as oil-soluble acylated aliphatic polyamine salts of aromatic acidic compounds e.g. N-(2-aminoethyl)naphthenamide salt of C1448 alkyl salicylic acid or by blending certain hydrocarbon fractions to obtain an end prodnot having a high spreading pressure value.
It has now been discovered that the spreading pressure of refined mineral lubricating oils on solid surfaces can be substantially increased without removing polarcontaining compounds, particularly sulfur and nitrogencontaining compounds present, by treating such refined oils containing small amounts of such nitrogen and sulfur compounds with a small amount of an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide and an inorganic acid. Oils treated in this manner can be used as blending agents for improving the spreading pressure of various types of lubricating oils. When these treated oils are used as additives they may be used in amounts varying from 1% to 20% or more.
The refined mineral lubricating oil to be treated in accordance with this invention may have a sulfur content of about 0.45% or higher such as 0.65l.5% and at least 2%, preferably 5%, polyaromatic and heterocyclic materials (1:10 to :1 ratio) and may have been refined by one or more of the conventional refining operations, such as fractional distillation to remove high boiling residual materials; treatment with sulfuric acid or oleum, earth or lime, or solvent extraction With a selective solvent for the aromatic components. It is applicable particularly to paraflinic-type lubricating oil, such as lubricating oils derived from Pennsylvania, Mid-Continent and West Texas crude oils and lubricating oils derived from other sources which may have had their paraffinicity increased by solvent extraction with selective solvents for the aromatic components.
Aromatic extracts from mineral lubricating Oils may be treated by the process of the present invention to give particularly valuable blending components for making lubricating oils with a high spreading pressure on solid surfaces. The hydrocarbon lubricating oils treated by the process of the present invention may also be blended with one or more other hydrocarbon oils, fatty oils or synthetic lubricating oils. The amount of treated oil generally used varies from 1% to 20% to as much as 45%.
The aqueous solutions of hydrogen peroxide which may be used in the process of the present invention are those normally available in commercial quantities, for example 100 volume hydrogen peroxide solution which contains about 30% by weight of hydrogen peroxide (H 0 Aqueous solutions of hydrogen peroxide containing concentrations of hydrogen peroxide between 5 and 95% H 0 by weight may be used to carry out the treatment. Hydrogen peroxide solutions containing between 25 to by weight H 0 are usually used and preferably solutions containing between 30 and 50% by weight H 0 Inorganic acids have been found suitable for use according to the process of the present invention, such as hydrochloric, sulfuric and phosphoric acid and these acids are conveniently used in the strengths in which they are normally available in commercial quantities. The concentrations of the aqueous solutions of inorganic acid suitable for use vary with the particular acid being used. Acids in relatively high concentration are usually preferred but it has been found that dilute aqueous solutions containing up to 50% by weight of the acid are also suitable.
The treatment of the oil is generally carried out at ambient temperature. The oil and the mixture of aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution and inorganic acid are usually agitated to ensure intimate contact for a period of between 5 minutes and 4 hours. The period of agitation necessary to ensure completion of the reaction depends on the size of the batch of oil and to a certain extent on the relative concentrations of the inorganic acid and hydrogen per oxide solution. The proportions by weight of inorganic acid and hydrogen peroxide based on the weight of oil to be treated, which have been found to be suitable are between 0.05% and 10% by Weight, respectively, and preferably between 1 and 5% weight. After the treatment the oil is usually separated from the treating solution and washed with Water, or an aqueous or alcohol solution of an alkaline material such as caustic soda, or sodium carbonate or ammonia. The oil may be subjected to successive treatments of water, alkaline solution and water to effect the neutralization of the oil. Norm-ally, however, owing to the small proportion of acid used in the treatment, it is only necessary to add a solid alkaline material to the oil and filter it off. Thus, the reaction mixture may be treated with solid sodium carbonate or lime and filtered. A very effective finishing treatment is to add lime and an activated earth, such as is normally used in the finishing of lubricating oils, to the treated oil and the filter.
The oil fraction may also be treated by successive portions of the inorganic acid and hydrogen peroxide and it has been found that this viariant is particularly advantageous for the treatment of oil fractions which are liable to form sludges in the presence of inorganic acids. The tendency to sludge formation is a particular problem when concentrated sulfuric acid is used as the inorganic acid and consequently the method, which has been found preferable with sulfuric acid, comprises treating the oil with sulfuric acid which has been diluted with water to a concentration of about 70-80% by wei ht, decanting the oil layer from the mixture of acid and sludge and subsequently treating the separated oil layer with an aqueuos solution of hydrogen peroxide. This treatment increases the spreading pressure of the oil without the addition of further acid due to the residual acidity in the oil after the sludge separation. The treated oil may be subsequently finished to remove residual acidity, hydrogen peroxide and water by one of the methods described above.
The process of the present invention is illustrated by the following examples.
Patented Sept. 29, 1964 Example I A sample of 100 parts by weight of a solvent refined mineral lubricating oil having a viscosity of 330 seconds Redwood I at 140 F., a sulfur content of 0.66% and a spreading pressure on steel of 7.8 dynes per centimeter was mixed with 1 part by Weight of a 100 volume hydrogen peroxide solution, containing 30% H by weight, and 1 part by weight of a 12 N solution of hydrochloric acid containing 44% HCl by weight, and the whole mixture was stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. The treated oil was washed with water, aqueous caustic soda solution and finally with Water. The finished oil had a sulfur content of 0.65% and a spreading pressure on steel of 15.6 dynes/crn.

The spreading pressure of the oil before this treatment was 7 dynes/cm. and after the treatment the sulfur content was essentially unchanged and the spreading pressure was 16.0 dynes/cm.

The oil layer was given the same treatment as in Example VII and the spreading pressure of the treated oil was 20.6 dynes/cm. compared with the spreading pressure of 7 dynes/cm. for the untreated oil.
