Filed:

May 31, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/484757

Kathleen Kim Cooper - South River NJ, US

Assignee:

EXXONMOBIL RESEARCH AND ENGINEERING COMPANY - Annandale NJ

International Classification:

C10M 105/32
C10M 105/02

US Classification:

508463, 585 1

Abstract:

The lubricating composition of this invention is primarily comprised of an admixture of an API Group V base oil component and a polyolefin base oil component. In general, the blend components include at least 45 wt. % of a Group V base oil component having a kinematic viscosity of less than 20 cSt at 100 C., and from 10 wt. % to 60 wt. % of a polyolefin base oil component having a kinematic viscosity of at least 500 cSt and not greater than 4000 cSt at 100 C. The lubricating composition has improved efficiency and lower operating temperatures, comparable to polyalkylene glycol-based lubricant level, which provides improved machine life and seal life, relative to other lubricating compositions.

G01N 33/30
G01N 27/60

Abstract:

Methods are provided for in-situ detection of varnish and/or deposit precursors in a lubricant in a lubricating environment. An electrostatic accumulator can be used within a lubricating environment to enhance accumulation of varnish and/or deposit precursors on portions of the electrostatic accumulator. The deposits accumulated on the electrostatic accumulator can then be characterized in-situ. The potential difference across portions of the electrostatic accumulator can cause an enhanced rate of deposit accumulation on the electrostatic accumulator, which can facilitate characterization of the tendency of a lubricant to accumulate deposits in the lubricating environment.

International Classification:

C10M 169/02
C10M 101/02
C10M 119/12
C10M 119/16

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides a lubricating composition with improved high-pressure pumpability and/or reduced viscosity at high pressures, as well as method of making and using the same. The lubricating composition includes a white oil and a polymeric thickener present in an amount equal to or less than about 40 wt % of the lubricating composition. The white oil has a kinematic viscosity of at least one of: about 80 mm/sec to about 120 mm/sec at 40 C. and/or about 9.5 mm/sec to about 14 mm/sec at 100 C.

C07C 69/26

Abstract:

A lubricating oil base stock including one or more monoesters represented by the formula (I), (II), (III) and (IV) as defined herein. The lubricating oil base stock has a high temperature high shear (HTHS) viscosity of less than about 1.7 cP as determined by ASTM D4683, and a Noack volatility from about 15 to about 90 percent as determined by ASTM D5800. A lubricating oil containing the lubricating oil base stock including one or more monoesters represented by the formula (I), (II), (III) and (IV) as defined herein. A method for improving one or more of thermal and oxidative stability, solubility and dispersancy of polar additives, deposit control and traction control in a lubricating oil by using as the lubricating oil a formulated oil containing the lubricating oil base stock including one or more monoesters represented by the formula (I), (II), (III) and (IV) as defined herein.

International Classification:

C10M 105/06

US Classification:

508287, 508110, 508591, 585 26

Abstract:

A method for improving thermo-oxidative stability and elastomer compatibility in an apparatus lubricated with a lubricating oil by using as the lubricating oil a formulated oil including a lubricating oil base stock. The lubricating oil base stock includes a di-alkylated aromatic base stock of the formula:wherein each Ris the same or different and represents a C-Calkyl group; Rrepresents an aromatic moiety. The di-alkylated aromatic base stock includes at least 44 wt % dialkylate product. Thermo-oxidative stability and elastomer compatibility are improved as compared to thermo-oxidative stability and elastomer compatibility achieved using a lubricating oil base stock other than the di-alkylated aromatic base stock. A lubricating oil including the di-alkylated base stock of the above formula, and the di-alkylated aromatic base stock of the above formula.
