The instant disclosure relates to a lubricant composition having an oil of lubricating viscosity, a polymeric surfactant compound that is an acylated polymer having a number average molecular weight of about 500 to about 50,000 where the polymer comprises a branched olefin having from 8 to 30 carbon atoms. The acylated polymer can further be reacted with an amine or alcohol to form an amide, imide, ester or combinations thereof. The present disclosure further relates to lubricant compositions that exhibit good dispersancy and viscometric performance.

Polymeric surfactant compound

The present invention relates to a lubricating composition comprising a detergent additive derived from raw cashew nut shell liquid. The invention also provides a process for preparing the additive and the use of the lubricating composition in a mechanical device.

Lubricant composition containing a detergent derived from cashew nut shell liquid

An additive for a lubricating composition includes an ionic tetrahedral borate compound which includes a cation and a tetrahedral borate anion having a boron atom, the boron atom has at least one aliphatic bidentate di-oxo ligand. The cation may be selected to provide detergent and/or dispersant and/or antioxidant properties to a lubricating composition.

Aliphatic tetrahedral borate compounds for lubricating compositions

A fully-formulating lubricating composition comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity; an ionic tetrahedral borate compound including a tetrahedral borate anion having a boron atom with two bidentate di-oxo ligands both being a linear C18-tartrimide; a first dispersant comprising a conventional ammonium substituted polyisobutenyl succinimide compound having a polyisobutenyl number average molecular weight of 750 to 2,500; a second dispersant comprising an ammonium substituted polyisobutenyl succinimde compound having an N:CO ratio of 1.8 and a polyisobutylenyl number average molecular weight of 750 to 2,500, wherein one or more of the first dispersant and the second dispersant are in cationic form. The fully formulated lubricating composition including one or more performance additives.

Aliphatic tetrahedral borate compounds for fully formulated lubricating compositions

A lubricating composition includes an oil of lubricating viscosity and an ionic tetrahedral borate compound which includes a cation and a tetrahedral borate anion which includes a boron atom, the boron atom having at least one aromatic bidentate di-oxo ligand. The compound may be represented by formula (I), where Rand Rare selected from Chydrocarbyl groups or together form a substituted or unsubstituted 5- or 6-membered ring; Rand Rtogether represent a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic ring; m is 0 or 1; X is hydrogen, a Chydrocarbyl group, &#x2014;OR, &#x2014;NHR, or &#x2550;O, Ris a Chydrocarbyl group; M represents the cation; and n is at least 1. The cation may be selected to provide detergent and/or dispersant properties to the lubricating composition. In the case of ammonium cations, the molecular weight may be 260 g/mol or higher for providing a highly soluble compound, particularly when X is &#x2550;O. 

Aromatic tetrahedral borate compounds for lubricating compositions

The present invention relates to functional fluid compositions containing friction modifiers, and specifically stable compositions containing friction modifiers with limited solubility in and/or limited compatibility with the functional fluids with which they are used. In particular the present invention deals with functional fluids used in internal combustion engines, such as engine oils, and friction modifiers derived from hydroxy-carboxylic acids, where the friction modifier is present in the functional fluid composition at levels that would otherwise cause the composition to be unstable and/or hazy.

Stabilized blends containing friction modifiers

The present invention relates to functional fluid compositions containing antioxidants, and specifically stable compositions containing antioxidants with limited solubility in and/or limited compatibility with the functional fluids with which they are used. In particular the present invention deals with functional fluids used in internal combustion engines, such as engine oils, and antioxidants containing a phenolic or benzoic group, where the antioxidant is present in the functional fluid composition at levels that would otherwise cause the composition to be unstable and/or hazy.

Stabilized blends containing antioxidants

The present invention relates to functional fluid compositions containing friction modifiers, and specifically stable compositions containing friction modifiers with limited solubility in and/or limited compatibility with the functional fluids with which they are used. In particular the present invention deals with functional fluids used in internal combustion engines, such as engine oils, and friction modifiers that contain one or more amide functional groups, where the friction modifier is present in the functional fluid composition at levels that would otherwise cause the composition to be unstable and/or hazy.

In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that an additive which is substantially insoluble in, has low solubility in and/or is otherwise incompatible with a functional fluid, may be supplied to the functional fluid by use of a gel composition and/or a solid additive composition containing the additive, such that the functional fluid can receive the benefit of the supplied additive and/or contain levels of the additive not otherwise achievable by conventional delivery method due to the incompatibility of the additive with the functional fluid.

Delivery of substantially insoluble additives to functional fluids

The present invention is directed to a heterogeneous gas phase polymerization process to produce true polyacetylene (PA; CH) in powder form, and the resultant PA product. The present invention is additionally directed to a chlorinated polyacetylene (CPA) compound comprised of primarily CHCl units and CH double bond units. The CPA compound can be comprised of at least 67.3 wt % Cl, and have a weight average molecular weight (Mw) as measured by GPC of greater than 30,000 and contain less than 1.0 mol % carbon-carbon branching. The CPA compound according to the invention can exhibit a glass transition temperature (Tg) of at least about 185&#xb0; C. to about 270&#xb0; C.
