Abstract:
The present invention is directed to lubricating oils exhibiting improved resistance to oxidation and deposit/sludge formation comprising a lubricant base oil and catalytic antioxidants comprising an effective amount of a) one or more polymetal organometallic compound; and, b) effective amounts of one or more substituted N, N'-diaryl-o-phenylenediamine compounds or c) one or more hindered phenol compounds or both, to a method for improving the antioxidancy and the resistance to deposit/sludge formation of formulated lubricating oil compositions by the addition thereto of an effective amount of the aforementioned catalytic antioxidants, and to an additive concentrate containing the aforementioned catalytic antioxidants.
Abstract:
Lubricating oil compositions of the invention comprise a major amount of a base oil of lubricating viscosity and an effective amount of at least one lubricant antioxidant, the base oil comprising a blend of a Group III base oil derived from a synthesis gas, and a Group IV base oil wherein the ratio of the Group III to Group IV base oils is such that the lubricating composition exhibits an oxidation stability determined by a measure of high temperature deposits that is less than half the mathematical sum of the oxidative stability determined for each of the unblended Group III and Group IV oils containing the same antioxidant in the same amount as in the blend.
Abstract:
Lubricating oil of reduced friction comprise lubricating oil base stock and dissolved therein carbon nanomaterials functionalized on their surface with ester or amide functionality and made using a technique involving multiple space apart in time or dropwise additions of reactants to the carbon nanomaterials.

Abstract:
Provided are lubricating compositions comprising in admixture at least 40 wt% of a base stock selected from the group consisting of Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV" and Group V base stocks, or any combination thereof, one or more polyalkylene glycol mono ethers, and at least one additive. Also provided are methods of improving the friction and wear properties of a base stock selected from the group consisting of Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV and Group V base stocks, or any combination thereof, comprising blending the base stock with one or more polyalkylene glycol mono ethers and at least one additive, to form a lubricating composition.
Abstract:
The addition of alkyl salicylic acids and esters represented by Formula I (I) where R1= H or C12 to C22 linear alkyl group; R2 = H or linear C12 to C22 carbonyl group; and R3 = linear C12 to C22 alkyl group reduces the pour point of a hydrocarbon base oil. Thus, both a method for reducing the pour point of hydrocarbon oils and lubricating composition containing pour point reducing salicylates are provided. The hydrocarbon base oil in such method and composition preferably is a Group III base oil.
