- the lubricant composition needs to be replaced with a newly prepared lubricant composition. Occurs. As the frequency of replacement increases, the labor and cost of the replacement work increase. However, since the lubricant composition of this embodiment is resistant to blackening, the frequency of replacement of the lubricant composition due to blackening can be reduced.
- blended with a lubricant composition may exceed 100 mass ppm.
- the sulfur content in the lubricant composition can be adjusted to 100 ppm by mass or less. it can. That is, the concentration of at least one of the sulfur content, the phosphorus content, and the aromatic content in the raw material of the lubricant composition may exceed those concentrations in the lubricant composition specified above.

- the lubricant composition is applied for so-called pre-lubrication of the chain 11.
- the lubricant composition can also be applied for the maintenance of the chain 11 while the chain 11 is in use, i.e. outside the tank for dipping the chain. Even in this case, for example, the blackening of the chain 11 due to heat generation during use of the chain 11 or heating due to the use environment can be suppressed.
- the base oil, thickener, rust inhibitor, and other components were subjected to a blackening test as described below. (Blackening test of base oil)
- the base oil shown in Table 1 was maintained at 150 ° C., and blackening was evaluated according to the following criteria.
- Highly refined mineral oil is substantially free of phosphorus and aromatics.
- the content of sulfur in the highly refined mineral oil is several tens of mass ppm or less.

- the base oil in Table 5 is a highly refined mineral oil (trade name: Sunpure P100, manufactured by Nippon Sun Oil Co., Ltd.), and the thickener is polyethylene wax (Mitsui High Wax 200P, manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc.).
- the rust preventive agent in Table 5 is sorbitan fatty acid ester, and the oily agent is fatty acid ester.
- the lubricant composition of each Example was prepared such that the sulfur content was 100 mass ppm or less, the phosphorus content was 1 mass% or less, and the aromatic content was 1 mass% or less.
- Comparative Examples 1 and 2 The lubricant composition of each comparative example was prepared by mixing each raw material according to the composition shown in Table 5.

The content of sulfur contained in the lubricant composition of each comparative example exceeded 100 mass ppm.
- the obtained lubricant compositions of Examples and Comparative Examples were respectively supplied to a chain immersion bath and maintained at 150 ° C. for 1000 hours. As a result, blackening was not confirmed in the lubricant composition of each Example. On the other hand, blackening was confirmed within 100 hours in the lubricant composition of each comparative example.
- the chain 11 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 was immersed in the lubricant compositions of the examples and comparative examples in a chain immersion bath. After 10 minutes, the chain 11 was taken out from the tank.
- the chain 11 to which the lubricant composition of each example was applied had a good appearance without blackening. In the chain 11 to which the lubricant composition of each comparative example was applied, blackening was observed and the appearance was poor.

(1)潤滑剤組成物は、基油、増粘剤、及び防錆剤を含有し、硫黄分が100質量ppm以下、リン分が1質量%以下、かつ芳香族分が1質量%以下である。この構成により、硫黄分、リン分、及び芳香族分に起因する潤滑剤組成物の黒色化を抑制することができる。従って、潤滑剤組成物を適用したチェーン11の黒色化を抑制することができ、外観の良好なチェーン11を得ることができる。
前記実施形態を次のように変更することもできる。
・潤滑剤組成物に配合される基油中の硫黄分の含有量は、100質量ppmを超えていてもよい。この場合、例えば増粘剤及び防錆剤として、それぞれ硫黄分を実質的に含有しない化合物を選択することで、潤滑剤組成物中における硫黄分の含有量を100質量ppm以下に調整することができる。すなわち、潤滑剤組成物の原料中の硫黄分、リン分、及び芳香族分の少なくとも一つの濃度は、上記で特定した潤滑剤組成物中のそれらの濃度を超えていてもよい。
・前記実施形態において、潤滑剤組成物は、チェーン11の所謂プレ給油のために適用されている。しかしながら、潤滑剤組成物は、チェーン11のメンテナンスのために、チェーン11の使用中、すなわちチェーン浸漬用の槽の外で適用することもできる。この場合であっても、例えばチェーン11の使用時の発熱や使用環境による加熱に起因するチェーン11の黒色化を抑制することができる。
(基油の黒色化試験)
表1に示される基油を150℃で維持し、黒色化について以下の基準で評価した。
1000時間後から2000時間以内に黒色化したもの:好適(B)
100時間後から1000時間以内に黒色化したもの:やや不適(C)
100時間以内に黒色化したもの:不適(D)
評価結果を表1に示す。
表2に示される増粘剤について上記の基油と同様に黒色化試験、及びその評価を行った。結果を表2に示す。
表5に示される組成に従って各原料を混合することで、各実施例の潤滑剤組成物を調製した。表5中の基油は、高精製鉱油(商品名:サンピュアP100、日本サン石油株式会社製)であり、増粘剤は、ポリエチレンワックス(三井ハイワックス200P、三井化学株式会社製)である。表5中の防錆剤は、ソルビタン脂肪酸エステルであり、油性剤は脂肪酸エステルである。各実施例の潤滑剤組成物は、硫黄分が100質量ppm以下、リン分が1質量%以下、かつ芳香族分が1質量%以下となるように調製された。
表5に示される組成に従って各原料を混合することで、各比較例の潤滑剤組成物を調製した。表5中の極圧剤として、比較例1では硫化オレフィンを用い、比較例2ではジアルキルジチオフォスフェートを用いた。各比較例の潤滑剤組成物に含まれる硫黄分の含有量は、100質量ppmを超えていた。
