Definitions

  • the present invention relates to lubricating oil compositions. More specifically to lubricating oil compositions comprising additive packages for reducing oxidative deterioration.
  • Lubricants such as those used in a variety of machinery, are susceptible to oxidative deterioration during storage, transportation, and usage, particularly when such lubricants are exposed to high temperatures and iron catalytic environments, which greatly promote the oxidation of the lubricant.
  • This oxidation if not controlled, contributes to the formation of corrosive acidic products, sludge, varnishes, resins, and other oil-insoluble products and may lead to a loss of designated physical and tribological properties of the lubricants.
  • These oxidation products may lead to the formation of harmful deposits on critical engine parts, such as the pistons, piston liners, valves, and valve lifters.
  • antioxidant additives e.g. alkylated diphenylamine
  • ADPA alkylated diphenylamine
  • Lubricant compositions containing various antioxidants arc widely known in the art.

  • sulfur-containing additives selected from the group consisting of sulfurized olefins, sullui ⁇ zed fatty acids, ashless dithiocarba
  • such a composition provides superior oxidation protection and acceptable sludge control in turbine oils formulated with Group II or higher base oils.
  • An important criterion for selecting the concentration of sulfur- containing additive is the sulfur content of the additive package.
  • the sulfur-containing additive should deliver between 0.005 wt. % and 0.07 wt. % of sulfur to the finished turbine oil.
  • Gatto utilizes only sulfurized olefins, sulfurizcd fatty acids, ashless dithiocarbamates, tetraalkylthiuram disulfides and mixtures thereof.
  • Gatto stales that there are a number of problems that may be associated with the use of hindered phenols, ⁇ atto states that hindered phenols under high temperatures can dealkylate and produce free phenol and that water extractabli ⁇ ty of certain water soluble phenols is another potential problem. Thus, Gatto states, a phenol -free formulation may be desired.
