1-[di(4-octylphenyl)aminomethyl]tolutriazole is prepared in a mineral oil and blended with a liquid alkylated diphenylamine. The liquid product shows increased storage stability with respect to crystallization of the 1-[di(4-octylphenyl)aminomethyl]tolutriazole when the amine is added. This blend product can be stored for a prolonged period of time, and then utilized in a lubricant composition as an antioxidant and corrosion inhibitor.

Method for reducing crystallization of 1-[di(4-octylphenyl)aminomethyl]tolutriazole

A novel molybdenum dithiocarbamate composition is produced by preparing a di-tridecylamine (DTDA) intermediate from a butylene feedstock comprising greater than 50% 2-butylene, and preparing a molybdenum dithiocarbamate composition from the DTDA intermediate. The resulting molybdenum dithiocarbamate composition are according to formula (1), wherein Rto Rare C-Cisoalkyl groups, and X represents oxygen and/or sulfur atoms, and Rto Rcomprise, on average, greater than 98% C:

1-[Di(4-octylphenyl)aminomethyl]tolutriazole is prepared in a mineral oil wherein the reaction also contains between 0.1 and 5% by weight of a polyacrylate polymer dissolved in a mineral oil. The liquid product shows increased storage stability with respect to crystallization of the 1-[di(4-octylphenyl)aminomethyl]tolutriazole when the polyacrylate polymer is added during the reaction to prepare the 1-[Di(4-octylphenyl)aminomethyl]tolutriazole. This product can be utilized in a lubricant composition as an antioxidant and corrosion inhibitor.

Lubricant composition

A catalyst for use in the formation of polypropylene is disclosed that comprises a titanium compound having at least one titanium-halogen bond, supported on an activated, amorphous magnesium dihalide support that is essentially free of alkoxy functionality, with a titanium metal content of no more than about 2 wt %, based on the weight of the support, and an internal donor component. This catalyst is made by a: forming a combination of titanium tetrachloride, magnesium-containing compound that can be converted to magnesium dihalide and internal electron donor in an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent and bringing that combination to elevated temperature to form an intermediate product; washing the intermediate product with an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent at elevated temperature to produce a washed product and a supernatant followed by decantation of the supernatant therefrom; treating the washed product with titanium tetrachloride in an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent to form a treated product and a supernatant followed by heating of the treated product and supernatant, decantation of the supernatant therefrom, and washing of the treated product with an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent at elevated temperature; decantation of the supernatant therefrom, and washing of the treated product with an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent preferably at least one or two more times; and addition of an aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent to the treated product with decantation of the solvent therefrom to form a washed product which can be used as a propylene polymerization catalyst. If desired, after the formation of the washed product resulting from addition of the aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent, mineral oil can be added to the washed product to form a slurry containing the final catalyst.
