Description

United States Patent 7 m. (:1. cos: 3764, 3/66, 15/18 U.S. Cl. 260-861 E Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Pour points of lubricating oils with widely varying viscosities are depressed by adding thereto small amounts of novel oil soluble polyalkylmethacrylates.
This is a division of application Ser. No. 753,777, filed Aug. 19, 1968, now U.S. Pat. No. 3,598,736.
This invention relates to novel oil soluble polyalkylmethacrylates which can be effectively used in lubricating oil compositions to reduce the pour point.
It is known in the art that certain polymeric materials exhibit the property of lowering pour point of lubricating oils. The influence on the pour point of an oil by any particular polymer, however, is unpredictable. Some polymers actually increase pour points, while others are effective in reducing pour points only if used in large concentrations or with lubricating oils of a specific viscosity range. The development of a pour point depressant which could be used in small concentrations yet be effective over a wide range of viscosities would be extremely desirable.
It has been found that a group of novel oil-soluble polyalkylmethacrylates with a special structure possess the aforementioned characteristics. The present additive consists of polyalkyl methacrylates wherein the alkyl group has from -20 carbon atoms and meet the following three requirements:
(1) The average number of carbon atoms of the alkyl chains in the methacrylates is between 13.8 and 14.8
(2) The molar percentage of the alkyl methacrylates with branched alkyl chains is between 10 and 30.
(3) The molar percentage of the alkyl methacrylates with an odd number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain is between 20 and 50.
Preference is given to polyalkyl methacrylates in which the average number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chains is between 14.0 and 14.6 and to polyalkyl methacrylates in which the molar percentage of the alkyl methacrylates with branched alkyl chains is between and 25.
The novel polyalkyl methacrylates are obtained by polymerization of a mixture of alkyl methacrylates at least part of which consists of alkyl methacrylates with 10-20 carbon atoms in the alkyl group. By the correct choice of the nature of the alkyl chains in the alkyl methacrylates with 10-20 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, and of the mutual ratio by weight of these alkyl methacrylates in the mixture to be polymerized a simple process yields polymers meeting the three afore-mentioned criteria. These polymers are capable not only of considerably depressing the pour point of light lubricating oils, such as spindle oil and light machine oil, but show in addition a high activity as pour point depressants in heavy lubricating oils rich in residual components, such as heavy machine oil.
In addition to the alkyl methacrylates with 10-20 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, the monomer mixture may also contain other alkyl methacrylates. These can comprise both alkyl methacrylates with less than 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl group or alkyl methacrylates'with more than 20 carbon atoms in the alkyl group. The copolymerization of alkyl methacrylates with less than 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl group in the preparation of the poly mers is desirable if the addition of these polymers to a lubricating oil is intended to improve the viscosity index (VI) as well as the pour point of the oil. Polymers prepared from alkyl methacrylates with less than 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, such as methyl methacrylates, are capable, when used in higher concentrations, of improving the VI of lubricating oils, while still displaying strong activity as pour point depressants. When these polymers are used in lower concentrations, however, their activity ,as pour point depressants is generally reduced.
If the polymers in question are to be used exclusively as pour point depressants, one should select polymers prepared by the copolymerization of a mixture of alkyl methacrylates with more than 9 carbon atoms in the alkyl group because these polymers show a high activity even at very low concentrations. Suitable polymers for the present purpose can be prepared by the polymerization of a mixture of alkyl methacrylates, part of which are derived from unbranched natural and/or synthetic alcohols with 16 and/or 18 carbon atoms, and the remaining part from a mixture of branched and unbranched synthetic alcohols with 12-15 carbon atoms. The 12-15 carbon atom alcohols can be obtained by reacting a mixture of olefins with 11-14 carbon atoms with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a complex catalyst consisting of cobalt, carbon monoxide and a phosphorus compound.
Very favorable results have been achieved using copolymers prepared in this manner. The following copolymers have exhibited exceptionally good pour point depressing activity:
(I) A copolymer of nand iso-(C -C methacrylate with n-C methacrylate, in particular a copolymer containing 76% m. of nand iso-(C C methacrylate and 24% m. of n-C methacrylate. Also a copolymer containing 85% m. of nand iso-(C -C methacrylate and 15% m. of n-C methacrylate.
(2) A copolymer of nand iso-(C -C methacrylate with n-C methacrylate, in particular a copolymer containing 74% m. of nand iso-(C -C methacrylate and 26% m. of n-C methacrylate.
(3) A copolymer of nand iso-(C -C methacrylate A with n-C methacrylate and n-C methacrylate, in particular a copolymer containing 66% m. of nand iso- (C -C methacrylate, 17% m. of n-C methacrylate and 17% m. of n-C methacrylate. Also a copolymer containing 75% m. of nand iso-(C -C methacrylate,
12% m. of n-C methacrylate and 13% m. of n-C methacrylate, and finally a copolymer containing 85 m. of nand iso-(C C methacrylate, 7% m. of n-C methacrylate and 8% m. of n-C methacrylate.
The molecular weight of the polymers according to the invention can vary within wide Polymers used as lubricating oil additives should have an average molecular weight (number average fi of between 2X 10 and 10 in particular between 5X10 and 10 The molecular weight was determined by an ebullioscopic method.
When the polymers are used as lubricating oil additives, they can be added directly to the oil or in the form of a concentrate obtained by mixing the polymers with a small quantity of oil.
The concentration in which the polymers can be used may also vary within wide limits, dependent on the structure and the molecular weight of the polymer to be used, the nature and the quantity of the paraflin waxes present in the luboil and the pour point depressing effect to be achieved. In some cases a quantity of 0.01 w. calcureach the desired pour point. In most cases a quantity of 2.0% w. is ample. One preferably incorporates 0.05 to 0.5% -w. ;of the polymers in the lubricating oil.
