Description

La présente invention a pour objet des dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares, en milieu huileux et leur procédé de préparation. Plus précisément, l'invention a trait à des dispersions de fluorures de terres rares, en milieu huileux. L'invention vise également leur application, dans le domaine de la lubrification.The subject of the present invention is dispersions of rare earth halides in an oily medium and their process of preparation. More specifically, the invention relates to dispersions of rare earth fluorides in an oily medium. The invention also relates to their application in the field of lubrication.

Lorsque deux surfaces, le plus souvent métalliques, sont mises en contact, il est usuel afin d'adoucir le frottement de placer entre les deux surfaces, un film d'un lubrifiant.When two surfaces, most often metallic, are brought into contact, it is usual in order to soften the friction to place between the two surfaces, a film of a lubricant.

Les lubrifiants à base d'huiles minérales ou synthétiques sont les plus couramment utilisés. Ils renferment généralement des additifs divers : additifs améliorant l'indice de viscosité, additifs abaissant le point d'écoulement, additifs anti-usure et extrême-pression, additifs neutralisants, inhibiteurs d'oxydation, inhibiteurs de corrosion, additifs dispersants et détergents, additifs anti-mousse.Lubricants based on mineral or synthetic oils are the most commonly used. They generally contain various additives: additives improving the viscosity index, additives lowering the pour point, anti-wear and extreme pressure additives, neutralizing additives, oxidation inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, dispersant and detergent additives, additives anti-foam.

Parmi les additifs précités, les fluorures de terres rares peuvent être utilisés comme additifs extrême-pression, empêchant le contact direct des surfaces métalliques, dans des conditions sévères de fonctionnement (grippage).Among the aforementioned additives, rare earth fluorides can be used as extreme pressure additives, preventing direct contact with metal surfaces, under severe operating conditions (seizure).

Le but poursuivi par la présente invention est de fournir des dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares en milieu aqueux destinées, notamment, à être incorporées dans une formulation classique de lubrification.The aim of the present invention is to provide dispersions of rare earth halides in an aqueous medium intended, in particular, to be incorporated into a conventional lubrication formulation.

Un autre but de l'invention est de disposer de dispersions présentant des propriétés de stabilité suffisantes eu égard à l'application envisagée et généralement, une stabilité est demandée dans une gamme de température allant de - 10. C à + 45 C.Another object of the invention is to have dispersions having sufficient stability properties with regard to the envisaged application and generally, stability is required in a temperature range from - 10 . C to + 45 C.

Les dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares en milieu huileux, objet de la présente invention, sont caractérisées par le fait qu'elles comprennent au moins un halogénure de terre rare, une base d'huile et au moins un agent tensio-actif comportant une partie hydrophobe et une partie hydrophile constituée par des motifs d'oxyde d'éthylène et/ou d'oxyde de propylène et, éventuellement, un groupe fonctionnel hydrophile.The dispersions of rare earth halides in an oily medium, object of the present invention, are characterized in that they comprise at least one rare earth halide, an oil base and at least one surfactant comprising a hydrophobic part and a hydrophilic part consisting of ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide units and, optionally, a hydrophilic functional group.

Interviennent donc, dans les dispersions huileuses d'halogénures de terres rares, au moins un halogénure d'une terre rare.There are therefore involved, in oily dispersions of rare earth halides, at least one halide of a rare earth.

Le terme "terre rare" utilisé conformément à l'invention comprend les éléments terres rares ayant des numéros atomiques de 57 à 71 inclus et l'yttrium de numéro atomique égal à 39.The term “rare earth” used in accordance with the invention includes the rare earth elements having atomic numbers from 57 to 71 inclusive and the yttrium with atomic number equal to 39.

Les éléments terres rares préférés sont les terres rares cériques telles que lanthane, cérium, praséodyme, néodyme et samarium. Parmi celles-ci, le cérium est choisi préférentiellement.The preferred rare earth elements are ceric rare earths such as lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium and samarium. Among these, cerium is preferably chosen.

Comme halogénures de terres rares, on peut citer, notamment, les chlorures ou les fluorures : ces derniers étant préférés.As rare earth halides, there may be mentioned, in particular, chlorides or fluorides: the latter being preferred.

La taille des agrégats, dans le cas d'un trifluorure de terre rare, s'échelonnant entre 0,05 et 3,0 u.m avec une répartition granulométrique plus ou moins resserrée selon le mode d'obtention dudit fluorure, il est intéressant que la dispersion huileuse de l'invention puisse être obtenue à partir de n'importe quel fluorure de terre rare, quelle que soit sa granulométrie.The size of the aggregates, in the case of a rare earth trifluoride, ranging between 0.05 and 3.0 μm with a particle size distribution more or less tightened according to the method of obtaining said fluoride, it is interesting that the The oily dispersion of the invention can be obtained from any rare earth fluoride, whatever its particle size.

Le trifluorure de cérium, objet de la demande de brevet français n° 88/08909, qui présente une granulométrie fine et resserrée, constitue une matière première de choix.Cerium trifluoride, the subject of French patent application n ° 88/08909, which has a fine and tight particle size, constitutes a raw material of choice.

Il présente un diamètre moyen de ses agrégats variant entre 0,1 et 0,5 u.m et, de préférence, entre 0,15 et 0,30 u.m : la fraction granulométrique supérieure à 1 et 2 u.m étant respectivement inférieure à 10 et 5 % en poids.It has an average diameter of its aggregates varying between 0.1 and 0.5 μm and, preferably, between 0.15 and 0.30 μm: the particle size fraction greater than 1 and 2 μm being respectively less than 10 and 5% in weight.

Le caractère monodisperse de la distribution de la taille des agrégats est mis en évidence par l'indice de dispersion défini par le rapport

Figure imgb0001
qui est compris dans un intervalle allant de 0,3 à 0,6 et, de préférence, de 0,3 à 0,45.The monodisperse nature of the size distribution of the aggregates is highlighted by the dispersion index defined by the ratio
Figure imgb0001
which is in the range from 0.3 to 0.6 and preferably from 0.3 to 0.45.

S'agissant de l'huile intervenant dans les dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares de l'invention, on peut faire appel à une huile végétale, minérale ou synthétique.As regards the oil involved in the dispersions of rare earth halides of the invention, use may be made of a vegetable, mineral or synthetic oil.

They consist of a mixture of a large number of hydrocarbons which can be classified as saturated straight chain hydrocarbons (n-paraffins) or branched (isoparaffins) into alicyclic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons.

Les huiles dites paraffiniques contiennent essentiellement des hydrocarbures paraffiniques et isoparaffi- niques, sensiblement moins d'hydrocarbures alicycliques et très peu d'hydrocarbures aromatiques.The so-called paraffinic oils essentially contain paraffinic and isoparaffinic hydrocarbons, substantially less alicyclic hydrocarbons and very little aromatic hydrocarbons.

Les huiles dites naphténiques ont des teneurs en hydrocarbures alicycliques et aromatiques plus élevées.The so-called naphthenic oils have higher alicyclic and aromatic hydrocarbon contents.

Un mode d'obtention des dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares en milieu huileux consiste à préparer une solution de l'agent tensio-actif tel que défini dans la base d'huile qui constitue le milieu de dispersion, à mettre en dispersion sous agitation, au moins un halogénure de terre rare, puis à effectuer le broyage de la dispersion et éventuellement à dégazer la dispersion obtenue.One method of obtaining dispersions of rare earth halides in an oily medium consists in preparing a solution of the surfactant as defined in the oil base which constitutes the dispersion medium, to be dispersed with stirring , at least one rare earth halide, then grinding the dispersion and optionally degassing the dispersion obtained.

La préparation du milieu de dispersion ne présente aucune difficulté. Elle s'effectue sous agitation, par des moyens classiques d'agitation (agitation à ancre, à hélice ou à turbine).The preparation of the dispersion medium presents no difficulty. It is carried out with stirring, by conventional stirring means (anchor, propeller or turbine stirring).

La mise en dispersion de l'halogénure de terre rare s'effectue sous agitation.The dispersion of the rare earth halide is carried out with stirring.

L'opération de broyage est poursuivie jusqu'à obtention d'une finesse moyenne de 4 αrn environ. Il est préférable qu'aucune particule ne dépasse 50 u.m.The grinding operation is continued until an average fineness of approximately 4 αrn is obtained. It is preferable that no particle exceeds 50 µm.

Le broyage de la dispersion peut se faire dans un broyeur à billes vertical ou horizontal.The dispersion can be ground in a vertical or horizontal ball mill.

L'opération de dégazage est conduite en maintenant la dispersion sous faible agitation.The degassing operation is carried out while maintaining the dispersion with gentle agitation.

Il est également possible d'ajouter, soit au cours du broyage, soit lors du dégazage, d'éventuels additifs requis dans l'application envisagée, par exemple, des modificateurs d'indice de viscosité (épaississants ou fluidifiants), des inhibiteurs d'oxydation, des inhibiteurs de corrosion.It is also possible to add, either during grinding or during degassing, any additives required in the intended application, for example, viscosity index modifiers (thickeners or thinners), inhibitors of oxidation, corrosion inhibitors.

Conformément à l'invention, on obtient des dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares en milieu huileux présentant les propriétés suivantes :

  • - une très bonne stabilité au stockage,
  • - une teneur élevée en halogénure de terre rare,
  • - une viscosité faible.
In accordance with the invention, dispersions of rare earth halides are obtained in an oily medium having the following properties:

Les dispersions d'halogénures de terres rares en milieu huileux sont utilisables dans toutes les applications où l'on fait appel à de telles dispersions, en particulier, dans le domaine de la lubrification et de la corrosion.Dispersions of rare earth halides in an oily medium can be used in all applications where such dispersions are used, in particular in the field of lubrication and corrosion.

En particulier, les dispersions de fluorures de terres rares en milieu huileux peuvent être incorporées dans la phase huileuse des formulations classiques de lubrification sous forme liquide, graisseuse ou pâteuse.In particular, the dispersions of rare earth fluorides in an oily medium can be incorporated into the oily phase of conventional lubrication formulations in liquid, greasy or pasty.

Les exemples suivants sont donnés à titre indicatif et ne peuvent être considérés comme une limite du domaine et de l'esprit de l'invention.The following examples are given for information only and cannot be considered as limiting the scope and spirit of the invention.

Exemples 1 à 9Examples 1 to 9

Dans les exemples 1 à 9, on effectue la préparation de dispersion de trifluorure de cérium en milieu huileux : le trifluorure de cérium présentant un diamètre moyen d'agrégats de 0,3 u.m.In Examples 1 to 9, the dispersion of cerium trifluoride dispersion is carried out in an oily medium: the cerium trifluoride having an average diameter of aggregates of 0.3 μm.

Dans tous les exemples, on suit le même protocole opératoire tel que défini ci-après.In all the examples, the same operating protocol is followed as defined below.

On prépare d'abord le milieu de dispersion, en dissolvant 101 g de l'agent tensio-actif défini dans les différents exemples, dans 1000 g d'une huile PRIMOL 352, qui est une huile minérale dite paraffinique contenant 70 % d'hydrocarbures paraffiniques et 30 % d'hydrocarbures naphténiques (% en carbone).The dispersion medium is first prepared, by dissolving 101 g of the surfactant defined in the various examples, in 1000 g of a PRIMOL 352 oil, which is a so-called paraffinic mineral oil containing 70% of hydrocarbons paraffinic and 30% naphthenic hydrocarbons (% carbon).

On ajoute 664 g de trifluorure de cérium sous agitation au moyen d'une turbine ULTRA-TURAX tournant à 1500 tours/minute.664 g of cerium trifluoride are added with stirring using an ULTRA-TURAX turbine rotating at 1500 revolutions / minute.

L'agitation est maintenue pendant environ 3 mn pour obtenir un mélange homogène.Stirring is continued for approximately 3 min to obtain a homogeneous mixture.

On obtient ainsi une prédispersion qui est ensuite broyée dans un "Mini Motor Mill" commercialisé par EIGER ENGINEERING Ltd ; la chambre de broyage est remplie par 59 g de billes de verre de 1 mm de diamètre, la rotation étant de 4000 tours/mn. Le broyage est effectué pendant environ 4 mn.A predispersion is thus obtained which is then ground in a "Mini Motor Mill" marketed by EIGER ENGINEERING Ltd; the grinding chamber is filled with 59 g of glass beads 1 mm in diameter, the rotation being 4000 rpm. The grinding is carried out for approximately 4 min.

Les propriétés de stabilité de ladite dispersion sont appréciées en soumettant celle-ci à un test de vieillissement accéléré, qui consiste à chauffer la dispersion dans une étuve à 40. C, pendant 1 semaine.The stability properties of said dispersion are assessed by subjecting it to an accelerated aging test, which consists in heating the dispersion in an oven to 40 . C, for 1 week.

On apprécie la stabilité de la dispersion obtenue après stockage, en déterminant le pourcentage de surnageant huileux sur la dispersion, ledit phénomène étant appelé "synérèse".The stability of the dispersion obtained after storage is assessed by determining the percentage of oily supernatant on the dispersion, said phenomenon being called "syneresis".
