Abstract

Abstract The addition of minor amounts of an asphaltene and a zinc 0,0di-alkylphosphorodithioate minimizes viscosity increases of mineral lubricating oils containing hydrogenated butadienestyrene copolymer VI improvers when subjected to extreme operating conditions that ordinarily cause substantial viscosity increases. The compositions are not subject to substantial viscosity increases when heated to elevated temperatures for prolonged periods.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 55 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein the mineral lubricating oil is a clay pre-treated lubricating oil and said asphaltene is composed of from 80 to 90 per cent carbon, 6 to 10 per cent hydrogen, 0.6 to 8 per cent sulfur, and a small proportion of other materials including oxygen, ash, nitrogen, and chlorine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 20 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein the alkyl in the zinc 0,0-dialkylphosphorodithioate is a mixture of isobutyl and amyl.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 63 words
A composition according to claim 2 wherein the mineral lubricating oil has a viscosity at 210*F in the range of 30-250 SUS and said hydrogenated butadiene-styrene copolymer has a vinyl content before hydrogenation of less than 35 weight per cent, an olefinic group hydrogenation of 95 weight per cent or more, and a phenyl group hydrogenation of 5 weight per cent or less.
