Definitions

  • This invention relates to lubricant compositions having utility in numerous applications, particularly in connection with gear, transmission and/or axle applications in the automotive and machinery industries.
  • Lubricant compositions and in particular gear and axle lubricant fluids, is to provide a high degree of reliability and durability in the service life of equipment in which it is installed.
  • Lubricating oils in general, and gear and axle lubricants in particular frequently must satisfy a relatively large number of performance criteria to be commercially successful.
  • a commercially successful axle lubricant will frequently be required to possess a high degree of oxidative stability, compatibility, shear stability, corrosion avoidance or resistance, wear protection, shiftability, and extended drain. These properties represent a difficult to achieve set of performance criteria.
  • Gear lubricant compositions are classified by the American Petroleum Institute
  • API using "GL” ratings. These classifications are subdivided into six classes. The lowest rating, API GL-1 , classifies oils used for light conditions, which consist of base oils without additives. The highest rating, API GL-6, classifies oils for very heavy conditions, such as high speeds of sliding and significant shock loading, and which contain up to 10% high performance antiscuffing additives. However, class API GL-6 is not applied any more as it is considered that class API GL-5 will meet most severe requirements. Lubricant compositions classified meeting API GL-5 performance requirements are generally applied, for example, in hypoid gears having significant displacement of axles.
  • the viscosity-temperature relationship of a lubricating composition is another of the critical criteria to be considered when selecting a lubricant for a particular application.
  • Mineral oils commonly used as a base for single and multigraded lubricants exhibit a relatively large change in viscosity with a change in temperature. Fluids exhibiting such a relatively large change in viscosity with temperature have a low viscosity index.
  • the SAE J306 describes viscometric qualifications for axle and gear lubricant compositions. This classification is based on the lubricant viscosity measured at both high and low temperatures.
  • the high-temperature kinematic viscosity values are determined according to ASTM D 445, with the results reported in centistokes (cSt).
  • the low-temperature viscosity values are determined according to ASTM D 2983 and the results are reported in centipoise (cP).
  • Table 1 summarizes high and low temperature requirements for qualifications of axle and gear lubricant compositions.
  • SAE Society of Automotive Engineers
  • High temperature viscosity is related to the hydrodynamic lubrication characteristics of the fluid.
  • Some lubricant compositions may contain high molecular weight polymers, known as viscosity modifiers or viscosity index improvers, which function to increase the viscosity of the fluids. During use, however, these polymers may shear to a lower molecular weight, thereby resulting in a fluid with a lower viscosity than that of the new fluid.
  • Low temperature viscosity requirements are related to the ability of the fluid to flow and provide adequate lubrication to critical parts under low ambient temperature conditions.
  • lubricant composition is used in its broadest sense to include fluid compositions that are used in applications involving metal to metal contact of parts in which at least one function of the fluid is to inhibit or reduce friction between the parts.
  • lubricant composition includes gear oils, axle oils, and the like.
  • the lubricant compositions of the present invention comprise: (a) base-stock; (b) viscosity improver; and (c) at least one additive.

  • the lubricant composition is a multiviscosity-grade lubricant having a SAE viscosity classification of 75W-140, and meets API GL-5 performance requirements.
