Abstract

Die vorliegende Schrift beschreibt die Verwendung von Diarylaminen zur Verringerung und/oder Beseitigung von Ablagerungen auf Einlaßventilen von Ottomotoren, ein Verfahren zu deren Betrieb und Verfahren zur Verringerung von Ablagerungen auf Einlaßventilen.The present specification describes the use of diarylamines to reduce and/or eliminate deposits on intake valves of spark ignition engines, a method of operating them and methods of reducing intake valve deposits.

Description

Die vorliegende Schrift beschreibt die Verwendung von Diarylaminen zur Verringerung und/oder Beseitigung von Ablagerungen auf Einlaßventilen von Ottomotoren, ein Verfahren zu deren Betrieb und Verfahren zur Verringerung von Ablagerungen auf Einlaßventilen.The present specification describes the use of diarylamines to reduce and/or eliminate deposits on intake valves of spark ignition engines, a method of operating them and methods of reducing intake valve deposits.

Diarylamine sind bereits seit langem als Zusätze zu Kraftstoffen bekannt.Diarylamines have long been known as fuel additives.

So beschreibt US 2107147 A den Einsatz von Diarylaminen als Zusatz zu Benzinen, um die Bildung von harzigen Polymeren aus der Oxidation von Diolefinen zu unterdrücken, die sich bei der Lagerung der Kraftstoffe bilden.So describes US2107147A the use of diarylamines as an additive to gasoline to suppress the formation of resinous polymers from the oxidation of diolefins formed during fuel storage.

WO 2018/041710 A1 beschreibt den Einsatz von Diarylaminen in direkteinspritzenden Benzinmotoren zur Verringerung von Brennraumablagerungen oder der Einspritzdüse. Beschrieben wird mithin lediglich die Verringerung von Verkokungen an Bauteilen, die mit Verbrennungsgasen in Kontakt stehen. WO 2018/041710 A1 describes the use of diarylamines in direct-injection gasoline engines to reduce combustion chamber deposits or the injection nozzle. Thus, only the reduction of coking on components that are in contact with combustion gases is described.

Im Gegensatz dazu bezieht sich die vorliegende Erfindung auf die Verringerung und/oder Beseitigung von Ablagerungen, die sich an Einlaßventilen von indirekt einspritzenden Ottomotoren befinden, sogenannte Intake Valve Deposits (IVD): Diese Ablagerungen befinden sich auf der Innenseite der Einlaßventile auf der Saugrohr-seitigen Fläche der Einlaßventile, die mit einem Kraftstoff-Luft-Gemisch in Kontakt kommt. Die Ventile sind wärmeleitend mit dem Brennraum verbunden, so daß sie eine gegenüber der Lagerung im Tank oder der Förderung im Kraftstoffsystem erhöhte Wandtemperatur aufweisen, der das Kraftstoff-Luft-Gemisch ausgesetzt ist. Andererseits sind die Ventilinnenseiten nicht dem Verbrennungsprozeß ausgesetzt, so daß die Ablagerungsproblematik hier ein andere ist als gemäß der WO 2018/041710 A1 .In contrast, the present invention relates to the reduction and/or elimination of deposits that are on the intake valves of indirect injection gasoline engines, so-called intake valve deposits (IVD): These deposits are on the inside of the intake valves on the intake manifold side Area of the intake valve that comes into contact with a fuel-air mixture. The valves are thermally connected to the combustion chamber, so that they have a higher wall temperature than when stored in the tank or conveyed in the fuel system, to which the fuel-air mixture is exposed. On the other hand, the insides of the valves are not exposed to the combustion process, so that the problem of deposits is different here than according to the WO 2018/041710 A1 .

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war es, Benzinadditive zur Verfügung zu stellen, mit denen die Ablagerungen auf Einlaßventilen von indirekt einspritzenden Ottomotoren verringert oder beseitigt werden können.The object of the present invention was to provide gasoline additives with which the deposits on the intake valves of indirect-injection Otto engines can be reduced or eliminated.

Die Aufgabe wurde gelöst durch die Verwendung mindestens eines Diarylamins in einem Kraftstoff oder Kraftstoffadditiv zur Verringerung und/oder Beseitigung von Ablagerungen auf den Einlaßventilen (IVD) in Ottomotoren mit indirekter Einspritzung.The object was achieved by using at least one diarylamine in a fuel or fuel additive to reduce and/or eliminate deposits on the intake valves (IVD) in Otto engines with indirect injection.

Ein weiterer Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Ottomotors mit indirekter Einspritzung mit einem Ottokraftstoff, enthaltend mindestens ein Diarylamin zur Verringerung und/oder Beseitigung von Ablagerungen auf den Einlaßventilen (IVD).

Derartige "Polyisobuten-Mannichbasen" sind insbesondere in der EP-A-831 141 beschrieben.Additives containing groups produced by Mannich reaction of substituted phenols with aldehydes and mono- or polyamines are preferably reaction products of polyisobutene-substituted phenols with formaldehyde and mono- or polyamines such as ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine, tetraethylenepentamine or especially dimethylaminopropylamine. The polyisobutenyl substituted phenols can be derived from conventional or highly reactive polyisobutene having Mn = 300 to 5000.

Es ist ebenso möglich, daß das Anion mehrfach negativ geladen sein kann, beispielsweise bei Anionen von Dicarbonsäuren. In diesem Fall entspricht das stöchiometrische Verhältnis von Ammoniumionen zu Anionen dem Verhältnis der jeweiligen positiven und negativen Ladungen.It is also possible that the anion can have multiple negative charges, for example in the case of anions of dicarboxylic acids. In this case, the stoichiometric ratio of ammonium ions to anions corresponds to the ratio of the respective positive and negative charges.

Das gleiche gilt für Verbindungen, in denen das Kation mehr als ein Ammoniumion aufweist, z.B. wenn die Substituenten zwei oder mehr Ammoniumionen verbinden.The same applies to compounds in which the cation has more than one ammonium ion, for example when the substituents link two or more ammonium ions.

Die genannten Detergensadditive werden dem Kraftstoff üblicherweise in einer Menge von 10 bis 5000 Gew.-ppm, insbesondere 50 bis 1000 Gew.-ppm, zugegeben. Die sonstigen erwähnten Komponenten und Additive werden, wenn gewünscht, in hierfür üblichen Mengen zugesetzt.The detergent additives mentioned are usually added to the fuel in an amount of 10 to 5000 ppm by weight, in particular 50 to 1000 ppm by weight. The other components and additives mentioned are added, if desired, in amounts customary for this purpose.

Erfindungsgemäß wird das oben bezeichnete Diphenylamin in einem Kraftstoffadditivpaket verwendet, das zusätzlich mindestens ein Trägeröl enthält, bevorzugt ein Polyalkoxylat. Trägeröle zeigen normalerweise keine ausgeprägte Detergenswirkung.According to the invention, the diphenylamine described above is used in a fuel additive package which additionally contains at least one carrier oil, preferably a polyalkoxylate. Carrier oils do not normally exhibit pronounced detergency.

Geeignete mineralische Trägeröle sind bei der Erdölverarbeitung anfallende Fraktionen, wie Brightstock oder Grundöle mit Viskositäten wie beispielsweise aus der Klasse SN 500 - 2000; aber auch aromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe, paraffinische Kohlenwasserstoffe und Alkoxyalkanole. Brauchbar ist ebenfalls eine als "hydrocrack oil" bekannte und bei der Raffination von Mineralöl anfallende Fraktion (Vakuumdestillatschnitt mit einem Siedebereich von etwa 360 bis 500°C, erhältlich aus unter Hochdruck katalytisch hydriertem und isomerisiertem sowie entparaffiniertem natürlichen Mineralöl). Ebenfalls geeignet sind Mischungen oben genannter mineralischer Trägeröle.Suitable mineral carrier oils are fractions obtained during petroleum processing, such as bright stock or base oils with viscosities such as those from the class SN 500-2000; but also aromatic hydrocarbons, paraffinic hydrocarbons and alkoxyalkanols. Also usable is a fraction known as "hydrocrack oil" and obtained in the refining of mineral oil (vacuum distillate cut having a boiling range of about 360 to 500°C, obtainable from natural mineral oil which has been catalytically hydrogenated and isomerized and dewaxed under high pressure). Mixtures of the mineral carrier oils mentioned above are also suitable.
