Lubricating compositions and concentrates

A lubricating oil composition is described which comprises a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity and (A) at least about 1% by weight of at least one carboxylic derivative composition produced by reacting

This invention relates to a lubricating oil composition, comprising:

Lubricating compositions

This invention relates to a composition comprising at least one sulfurized overbased product made by contacting (A) at least one overbased product or (A') at least one boron-containing overbased product with (B) sulfur and/or at least one source of sulfur; said overbased product (A) or boron-containing overbased product (A') being made using at least one acidic material, with the proviso that when said acidic material is other than SO.sub.2 or a source of SO.sub.2 said overbased product (A) or boron-containing overbased product (A') is contacted with an effective amount of SO.sub.2 or a source of SO.sub.2 to displace at least part of said acidic material. In one embodiment the sulfurized overbased product is an overbased thiosulfate or a boron-containing overbased thiosulfate. In one embodiment, the sulfurized overbased product is made using the overbased product (A) and the composition further comprises at least one non-sulfurized boron-containing overbased product. The sulfurized overbased products are thermally stable and are useful as extreme pressure (EP) and/or anti-wear agents or antioxidants for use in lubricants, functional fluids and normally liquid fuels. The functional fluids can be oil-based, water-oil emulsions or water-based. The sulfurized overbased products are particularly suitable for use as EP and/or anti-wear agents for use in gear lubricants and cutting fluids. In one embodiment lubricating compositions are provided that pass both the L-37 High Torque Test and the L-42 High Speed Shock Test without the necessity of employing phosphorus and sulfurized olefin anti-wear systems in their formulation.

Sulfurized overbased compositions

The invention includes a lubricating composition comprising a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity, and a minor amount of (A) a sulfite or sulfate overbased or borated overbased metal salt of an acidic organic compound, wherein the lubricating composition contains less than 1.5% by weight of the reaction product of a polyisobutene substituted succinic anhydride and a polyamine, and provided that when (A) is a sulfate overbased or borated overbased metal salt, then the lubricating composition includes (B) at least one phosphorous of boron antiwear/extreme pressure agent, or (C) a sulfur compound. The invention also includes grease and functional fluids containing the sulfite and sulfate overbased metal salts. These composition have improved antiwear, antiweld, and extreme pressure properties.

Lubricants, functional fluid and grease compositions containing sulfite

The invention relates to a composition, comprising: at least one basic alkali metal salt of at least one hydrocarbyl-substituted acidic organic compound, wherein the hydrocarbyl group is derived from a polyalkene having an Mn of at least 600, provided that when the organic compound is a sulfonic acid, the polyalkene has an Mn of at least 900; and provided that when the acidic organic compound is a mixture of acidic organic compounds containing a carboxylic acid and a sulfonic acid which has a hydrocarbyl group derived from a polyalkene having an Mn of less than 900, then the carboxylic acid comprises at least 10% of the equivalents of the mixture. Methods for preparing the salts and lubricating compositions containing the salts are described.

Overbased alkali salts and methods for making same

This invention relates to a composition comprising a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity, and (A) an organic ammonium thiosulfate. The lubricating composition is either free of added lead containing compounds or additionally contains (B) a phosphorus or boron antiwear/extreme pressure agent, or both. The invention also includes greases and aqueous fluids containing organic ammonium thiosulfates. These compositions have improved antiwear, antiweld, extreme pressure and/or friction properties.

Lubricating compositions, greases, aqueous fluids containing organic

Sulfite overbased compositions which are particularly useful in metal-working compositions are obtained.

Sulfite overbased products and process

The present invention describes carbonated overbased products which have been borated. The products have a very small particle size.
