Definitions

  • the invention is directed to the reaction product of an alkali or alkaline earth salt of an acidic organic compound, a boron compound and an amine component. It is also directed to a lubricant composition comprising this reaction product, a method for its production and its uses.
  • lubricants One of the primary functions of lubricants is to decrease friction. Frequently, however, lubricating oils need additional properties to be used effectively. For example, lubricants used in large diesel engines, such as, for example, marine diesel engines, are often subjected to operating conditions requiring special considerations.
  • the marine oils used in low-speed two-stroke crosshead engines are of two types. On the one hand, cylinder oils ensuring the lubrication of the cylinder-piston assembly and, on the other hand, system oils ensuring the lubrication of all the moving parts apart from the cylinder-piston assembly. Within the cylinder-piston assembly, the combustion residues containing acid gases are in contact with the lubricating oil.
  • the acid gases are formed from the combustion of the fuel oils; these are in particular sulphur oxides (S0 2 , S0 3 ), which are then hydrolyzed on contact with the moisture present in the combustion gases and/or in the oil. This hydrolysis generates sulphurous (HSO3) or sulphuric (H 2 S0 4 ) acid.
  • S0 2 , S0 3 sulphur oxides
  • H 2 S0 4 sulphuric
  • An oil's neutralization capacity is measured by its BN or Base Number, characterized by its basicity. It is measured according to standard ASTM D-2896 and is expressed as an equivalent in milligrams of potash per gram of oil (also called“mg of KOH/g” or“BN point”).
  • the BN is a standard criterion making it possible to adjust the basicity of the cylinder oils to the sulphur content of the fuel oil used, in order to be able to neutralize all of the sulphur contained in the fuel, and capable of being converted to sulphuric acid by combustion and hydrolysis.
  • the higher the sulphur content of a fuel oil the higher the BN of a marine oil needs to be.
  • marine oils with a BN varying from 5 to 140 mg KOH/g are found on the market.
  • This basicity is provided by detergents that are neutral and/or overbased by insoluble metallic salts, in particular metallic carbonates.
  • the detergents mainly of anionic type, are for example metallic soaps of salicylate, phenate, sulphonate, carboxylate type etc. which form micelles where the particles of insoluble metallic salts are maintained in suspension.
  • the usual neutral detergents intrinsically have a BN typically less than 150 mg KOH per gram of detergent and the usual overbased detergents intrinsically have a BN in a standard fashion comprised between 150 and 700 mg KOH per gram of detergent. Their percentage by mass in the lubricant is fixed as a function of the desired BN level.
  • marine lubricants having a BN of the order of 70 or less are used in the presence of fuel oil with a high sulphur content (3.5% w/w and less). In the presence of a fuel oil with a low sulphur content (0.1% w/w), marine lubricants having a BN of the order of 40 or less are used. In these two cases, a sufficient neutralizing capacity is achieved as the necessary concentration in basic sites provided by the neutral and/or the overbased detergents of the marine lubricant is reached, but it is necessary to change lubricant at each change of type of fuel oil.
  • each of these lubricants has limits of use resulting from the following observations: the use of a high BN cylinder lubricant in the presence of a fuel oil with a low sulphur content (0.1 w/w) and at a fixed lubrication level, creates a significant excess of basic sites (high BN) and a risk of destabilization of the micelles of unused overbased detergent, which contain insoluble metallic salts. This destabilization results in the formation of deposits of insoluble metallic salts (for example calcium carbonate), mainly on the piston crown, and can eventually lead to a risk of excessive wear of the liner-polishing type. Further, the use of a low BN cylinder lubricant is not sufficient in term of total neutralization capacity in the presence of a fuel oil with a high sulphur content and thus can cause an important risk of corrosion.
  • insoluble metallic salts for example calcium carbonate
  • the optimization of the cylinder lubrication of a low-speed two-stroke engine then requires the selection of the lubricant with the BN adapted to the fuel oil and to the operating conditions of the engine. This optimization reduces the flexibility of operation of the engine and requires a significant degree of technical expertise on the part of the crew in defining the conditions under which the switching from one type of lubricant to the other must be carried out.
  • the operating conditions of marine engine and notably of two-stroke marine engine are increasingly stringent standards. Accordingly, the lubricant being directly in contact with the engine, and notably with the hot section of the engine as for example the segment-piston-pump assembly, shall ensure a resistance to an elevated temperature and thus, reduce or prevent the formation of deposits in the hot section of the engine but also shall ensure a good neutralization towards the sulfuric acid generated during the combustion of fuel.
  • a lubricant for marine engines including for a two-stroke marine engine, displaying no or few risk of viscosity increase over time, and particularly during its use.
