  • Lubricants are for example low ash, low phosphorus engine oils (engine fluids) or industrial oils.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,734,209 discloses copper passivators for functional fluids.
  • the invention allows for the formulation of engine lubricants that can protect copper, lead, iron and zinc from corrosion for the life of the lubricant. In the case of engine oils, in spite of the reduction in concentration of traditional protectants—overbased detergent and ZnDTP.
  • Overbased detergents are known to those skilled in the art and are for example phenates, sulphonates or salicylates.
  • ZnDTP and detergent content are controlled by SAPS restrictions (sulfated ash, phosphorus and sulfur).
  • ZnDTP content is controlled mainly by the maximum limits set on the % P content in various engine oil specifications. ILSAC and API have stepped down the P content for passenger car oils as follows:
  • ILSAC GF-1/API SH (1992) 0.12 ILSAC GF-2 and 3/API SJ and SL (1996-2001) 0.10 ILSAC GF-4/API SM (2004) 0.08
  • GF-5 (scheduled for 2009) calls for controlling P by using a catalytic converter poisoning test. If no test is available, the P limit will go down further to either 0.06 or 0.05% P max.
  • the new ACEA E6 heavy duty diesel engine specification has a 0.08% max limit for phosphorus.
  • Total ash limits are also to be lowered. This will impact detergent and ZnDTP content.

Abstract

Description

  • This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 12/012,590, filed Feb. 4, 2008, pending, which claims benefit of U.S. provisional application No. 60/899,946, filed Feb. 7, 2007, the contents of which applications are incorporated by reference.
  • The present invention is aimed at controlling the corrosion of lead, copper, iron and zinc in lubricants. Lubricants are for example low ash, low phosphorus engine oils (engine fluids) or industrial oils.
    • BACKGROUND
  • Traditionally the protection of metal parts of ingnition engines has been provided by a combination of neutral to overbased detergents together with zinc dithiophosphate (ZnDTP).
  • Exhaust gas after treatment systems for vehicles are now required in order to comply with Clean Air Legislation, i.e. new Japanese or European legislation. The efficiency of these systems can be impaired by lubricant ash—originating from metal, sulfur and phosphorus containing additives. Therefore the amount of ash containing detergents and phosphorus and ash containing ZnDTP has been reduced in recently formulated oils in order to comply with current and impending specifications. This can result in diminished corrosion protection of metal parts in the engine.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,734,209 discloses copper passivators for functional fluids.
  • U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,171,463 and 5,032,300 teach benzotriazole based copper passivators.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,410,490 teaches benzotriazole additives for lubricants.
  • U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,008,165 and 6,010,986 teach borates as a means to control lead corrosion.
  • Surprisingly, it has been found that a combination of a certain metal deactivator, a borate ester and optionally an amine phosphate when added to a lubricant will maintain a high level of protection of bearings and other parts of an engine.
  • The invention allows for the formulation of engine lubricants that can protect copper, lead, iron and zinc from corrosion for the life of the lubricant. In the case of engine oils, in spite of the reduction in concentration of traditional protectants—overbased detergent and ZnDTP.
  • Overbased detergents are known to those skilled in the art and are for example phenates, sulphonates or salicylates. ZnDTP and detergent content are controlled by SAPS restrictions (sulfated ash, phosphorus and sulfur). ZnDTP content is controlled mainly by the maximum limits set on the % P content in various engine oil specifications. ILSAC and API have stepped down the P content for passenger car oils as follows:
  • max %
    P allowed
    ILSAC GF-1/API SH (1992) 0.12
    ILSAC GF-2 and 3/API SJ and SL (1996-2001) 0.10
    ILSAC GF-4/API SM (2004) 0.08
  • The next category, GF-5 (scheduled for 2009) calls for controlling P by using a catalytic converter poisoning test. If no test is available, the P limit will go down further to either 0.06 or 0.05% P max.
  • In Europe, ACEA 2004 specifications for gasoline and diesel engines with aftertreatment devices also required reductions in phosphorus content.
  • % P allowed
    C1 ≦0.05
    C2 0.070-0.090
    C3 0.070-0.090
  • The new ACEA E6 heavy duty diesel engine specification has a 0.08% max limit for phosphorus.
  • Total ash limits are also to be lowered. This will impact detergent and ZnDTP content.
  • Sulfur limits are also part of the equation as they limit the contribution that can come from ZnDTP and sulfonate detergents (also sulfurized phenate detergents).
  • Reduction of these materials leads to a reduction in ability to protect the lubricant against copper and lead corrosion in engines. Further, fuel economy requirements necessitate increased use of friction modifiers such as glycerol monoleate and certain molybdenum compounds. These materials may be corrosive towards either copper or lead or both. U.S. Pat. No. 2,898,299 teaches the aggressiveness of glycerol monoleate towards copper-lead bearing alloys. U.S. Pat. No. 5,631,213, EP 1,382,659 and D. T. Jayne, J. R. Shanklin, and C. F. Stachew, “Controlling the Corrosion of Copper Alloys in Engine Oil Formulations: Antiwear, Friction Modifier, Dispersant Synergy”, SAE Paper 2002-01-2767, teach the corrosiveness of certain molybdenum compounds towards copper and copper alloys. Additionally, certain industrial oils are aggressive to zinc.
