The present invention provides overbased detergents as lubricating oil additives effective for the lubrication of mechanical components in land and marine engines, such as, for example, hydraulic systems, transmissions, two-stroke and four-stroke vehicular engines, trunk piston and two-stroke crosshead marine engines. These overbased detergents lead to improved detergency and thermal stability performances versus high overbased sulfonates. Moreover, they are more compatible with commercial phenates than conventional sulfonates.

Overbased detergents for lubricating oil applications

The present invention provides overbased detergents as lubricating additives effective for the lubrication of mechanical components in land and marine engines, such as, for example, hydraulic systems, transmissions, two-stroke and four-stroke vehicular engines, and trunk piston and two-stroke crosshead marine engines.

Lubricating oil composition containing an alkali metal detergent

An additive composition providing improved low temperature viscosity, corrosion and detergent properties when used in lubricating oils for internal combustion engines is presented. The additive composition comprises an unsulfurized carboxylate detergent-dispersant additive having been modified by incorporation of from about 3.2 wt % to 7.5 wt %, based on the total additive composition, of an alkaline earth metal salt of a linear, saturated carboxylic acid having from about 16 to about 20 carbon atoms and wherein the additive composition has a superalkalinization ratio of less than about 1.4:1, a TBN of less than about 200 and a sediment value of less than about 0.2% by volume.

Additive composition having low temperature viscosity corrosion and detergent properties

Mixture of alkyl phenyl sulfonates of alkaline earth metals having: (a) from 20% to 70% by weight of a linear mono alkyl phenyl sulfonate in which the linear mono alkyl substituent contains from 14 to 40 carbon atoms, preferably from 20 to 24 carbon atoms, and the mole % of the phenyl sulfonate radical fixed on position 1 or 2 of the linear alkyl chain is between 10% and 25%, preferably between 13% and 20%, and (b) from 30% to 80% by weight of a branched mono alkyl phenyl sulfonate in which the branched mono alkyl substituent contains from 14 to 18 carbon atoms.
