Para-alkylated substituted diphenylamines are made by catalytically alkylating diphenylamine with a branched-chain alkene, such as propene, oligomer mixture in which the oligomer present in the greatest percentage has 15-24 carbon atoms. The alkylated diphenylamines are useful crankcase lubricant additives such as for reducing piston deposits and engine sludge.

Additives and lubricating oil compositions containing same

A lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engines, particularly heavy duty diesel (HDD) engines, having reduced phosphorus, sulfur and sulfated ash contents that provide excellent piston cleanliness performance and contain an amount of phenate detergent that introduces a relatively large amount of phenate soap into the lubricating oil composition.

Lubricating oil compositions

Lubricating oil compositions having a sulfated ash content of no more than 1.0 mass %, which contain a major amount of oil of lubricating viscosity, a minor amount of calcium salicylate detergent, an amount of a magnesium-based detergent providing at least 200 ppm of magnesium, and a basic, low molecular weight, nitrogen-containing dispersant, which compositions provide improved top ring wear protection in internal combustion engines.

Lubricating oil compositions having a sulfated ash content of no more than 1.0 mass %, which contain a major amount of oil of lubricating viscosity, a minor amount of calcium salicylate detergent, an amount of a magnesium-based detergent providing the lubricating oil composition with at least 200 ppm of magnesium, an amount of a sulfur-containing molybdenum compound providing the lubricating oil composition with at least 20 ppm of molybdenum, and at least one nitrogen-containing dispersant providing the lubricating oil composition with at least 0.9 mass % nitrogen, which compositions provide improved top ring wear protection in internal combustion engines.

A crankcase lubricating oil composition comprises an oil of lubricating viscosity, in a major amount, and, in respective minor amounts, a boron-containing additive and one or more co-additives, wherein the lubricating oil composition has greater than 200 ppm by mass of boron, less than 600 ppm by mass of phosphorus and less than 4000 ppm by mass of sulfur, based on the mass of the oil composition. Such compositions demonstrate provide improved wear performance.

A lubricating oil composition having a total base number of at least about 8, comprising a major amount of oil of lubricating viscosity; an amount of one or more dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphate metal salt introducing into the lubricating oil composition no more than 0.06 wt. % of phosphorus; at least 1.2 wt. % of hindered phenol antioxidant; and boron, and/or a boron-containing compound or compounds in an amount providing the lubricating oil composition with at least 200 ppm by weight of boron, all weight percentages being based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition.
