- Group I contain less than 90% saturates and/or greater than 0.03% sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 80 and less than 120; Group II contain greater than or equal to 90% saturates and less than or equal to 0.03% sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 80 and less than 120; Group III contain greater than or equal to 90% saturates and less than or equal to 0.03% sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 120; Group IV are polyalphaolefins (PAO); and Group V include all other basestocks not included in Group I, II, III or IV.
- The test methods used in defining the above groups are ASTM D2007 for saturates; ASTM D2270 for viscosity index; and one of ASTM D2622, 4294, 4927 and 3120 for sulfur.
- Group IV basestocks, i.e. polyalphaolefins (PAO) include hydrogenated oligomers of an alpha-olefin, the most important methods of oligomerisation being free radical processes, Ziegler catalysis, and cationic, Friedel-Crafts catalysis.
- The polyalphaolefins typically have viscosities in the range of 2 to 100 cSt at 100° C., for example 4 to 8 cSt at 100° C. They can, for example, be oligomers of branched or straight chain alpha-olefins having from about 2 to about 30 carbon atoms, non-limiting examples include polypropenes, polyisobutenes, poly-1-butenes, poly-1-hexenes, poly-1-octenes and poly-1-decene. Included are homopolymers, interpolymers and mixtures.
- Regarding the balance of the basestock referred to above, a “Group I basestock” also includes a Group I basestock with which basestock(s) from one or more other groups can be admixed, provided that the resulting admixture has characteristics falling within those specified above for Group I basestocks.
- Exemplary basestocks include Group I basestocks and mixtures of Group II basestocks with Group I bright stock.
- Basestocks suitable for use herein can be made using a variety of different processes including but not limited to distillation, solvent refining, hydrogen processing, oligomerisation, esterification, and re-refining.
- The base oil can be an oil derived from Fischer-Tropsch synthesized hydrocarbons. Fischer-Tropsch synthesized hydrocarbons can be made from synthesis gas containing H2 and CO using a Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. Such hydrocarbons typically require further processing in order to be useful as the base oil. For example, the hydrocarbons can be hydroisomerized using processes disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,103,099 or 6,180,575; hydrocracked and hydroisomerized using processes disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,943,672 or 6,096,940; dewaxed using processes disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,882,505; or hydroisomerized and dewaxed using processes disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,013,171; 6,080,301; or 6,165,949.
- Unrefined, refined and rerefined oils, either mineral or synthetic (as well as mixtures of two or more of any of these) of the type disclosed hereinabove can be used in the base oils. Unrefined oils are those obtained directly from a mineral or synthetic source without further purification treatment. For example, a shale oil obtained directly from retorting operations, a petroleum oil obtained directly from primary distillation or ester oil obtained directly from an esterification process and used without further treatment would be an unrefined oil. Refined oils are similar to the unrefined oils except they have been further treated in one or more purification steps to improve one or more properties. Many such purification techniques are known to those skilled in the art such as solvent extraction, secondary distillation, acid or base extraction, filtration, percolation, etc. Rerefined oils are obtained by processes similar to those used to obtain refined oils applied to refined oils which have been already used in service. Such rerefined oils are also known as reclaimed or reprocessed oils and often are additionally processed by techniques directed to removal of spent additives, contaminants, and oil breakdown products.
- Optionally, other components can be present in the lubricant composition. Non-limiting examples of other components include antiwear agents, dispersants, diluents, defoamers, demulsifiers, anti-foam agents, corrosion inhibitors, extreme pressure agents, seal well agents, antioxidants, pour point depressants, rust inhibitors and friction modifiers.
- Also disclosed herein is a method of lubricating a machine, such as an automotive gear, a stationary gearbox (including an industrial gear), and/or an axle with the disclosed lubricating composition. In a further aspect, there is disclosed a method of improving at least one of antiwear protection and thermal stability in a machine, such as an automotive gear, a stationary gearbox (including an industrial gear), and/or an axle comprising placing the disclosed lubricating composition in the machine, such as an automotive gear, a stationary gearbox (including an industrial gear), and/or an axle. There is also disclosed a method of passing ASTM D6121 and/or ASTM D5704 and/or a method of maintaining GL-5 and/or SAE J2360 performance comprising lubricating a gear and/or axle with the disclosed lubricating composition.
- A lubricant composition was prepared using known techniques and processes. The quantities used to prepare this lubricant composition are provided in Table 1.
TABLE 1 Component Weight Percent Formula III 0.20-1 Non-borated Succinimide Dispersant 0.5-2 Borated Succinimide Dispersant 0.5-2 Base Oil 40-90 Olefin Copolymer VII (s) 0-20 Seal Swell Agent (s) 0-10 EP/AW Agent (s) 4-6 Pour Point Depressant (s) 2.5-5 Amine Rust Inhibitor (s) 1-2 Anti-Foam Agent (s) 0.1-2 Demulsifier (s) 0-0.5 Corrosion Inhibitor (s) 0.1-1 - Several lubricant compositions were formulated and submitted to the L60-1 test (Oxidation Performance Test: L60-1 (ASTM D5704)). The L60-1 test is designed to test the thermal and oxidative stability of a gear oil. The passing requirements for the L60-1 test are set forth in Table 2.
TABLE 2 Observation Passing Rating Carbon Varnish 7.5 min Sludge 9.4 min % Kinematic Viscosity Increase at 100 max 100° C. % Pentane Insolubles 3% max % Toluene Insolubles 2% max - Four formulations were prepared based upon the formulation in Example 1. These formulations were subjected to the ASTM D5704. The results of the test are shown in Table 3.
Duration of Test Gear Oil Description L60-1 Test Results (hour) Formula III/Borated Succinimide Dispersant PASS 50 Formula III/Borated Succinimide Dispersant PASS 300 Formula III/No Borated Succinimide FAIL 50 Dispersant No Formula III/Borated Succinimide FAIL 50 Dispersant No Formula III/No Borated Succinimide FAIL 50 Dispersant - As shown above, it can be seen that gear oils containing a salt of a sulfur-containing, phosphorus-containing compound and a boron-containing compound exhibited a passing performance in the ASTM D5704. It is noteworthy that the ASTM D5704 only requires a passing result at 50 hours. However, the test can be modified to 300 hours. The composition of the present disclosure passed the test at this modified level as well.
- For the purposes of this specification and appended claims, unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities, percentages or proportions, and other numerical values used in the specification and claims, are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the following specification and attached claims are approximations that can vary depending upon the desired properties sought to be obtained by the present disclosure. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques.
- It is noted that, as used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the,” include plural referents unless expressly and unequivocally limited to one referent. Thus, for example, reference to “an antioxidant” includes two or more different antioxidants. As used herein, the term “include” and its grammatical variants are intended to be non-limiting, such that recitation of items in a list is not to the exclusion of other like items that can be substituted or added to the listed items.
- While particular embodiments have been described, alternatives, modifications, variations, improvements, and substantial equivalents that are or can be presently unforeseen can arise to applicants or others skilled in the art. Accordingly, the appended claims as filed and as they can be amended are intended to embrace all such alternatives, modifications variations, improvements, and substantial equivalents.
