Abstract

Abstract A water-in-oil emulsion finding use as a stable functional fluid comprises about 19 to about 50 weight percent water, about 80 to about 49 weight percent mineral oil and a small amount of a hydrocarbyl-substituted succinic acid mono ester of a polyoxyethylene mono-ol. The mono-ol has an average molecular weight of about 200-1,000 and the hydrocarbyl substituent is from about 750 to about 2,000 average molecular weight.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 86 words
A water-in-oil emulsion finding use as a functional fluid comprises from about 19 to about 50 weight percent of water, from about 80 to about 49 weight percent of mineral oil and in an amount sufficient to stabilize said water-in-oil emulsion a hydrocarbyl-substituted succinic acid monoester of a polyoxyethylene mono-ol of average molecular weight from about 200 to about 1,000 terminated with an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, wherein said hydrocarbyl substituent is of from about 750 to about 2,000 average molecular weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 86 words
A water-in-oil emulsion finding use as a functional fluid comprises from about 19 to about 50 weight percent of water, from about 80 to about 49 weight percent of mineral oil and in an amount sufficient to stabilize said water-in-oil emulsion a hydrocarbyl-substituted succinic acid monoester of a polyoxyethylene mono-ol of average molecular weight from about 200 to about 1,000 terminated with an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, wherein said hydrocarbyl substituent is of from about 750 to about 2,000 average molecular weight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
A water-in-oil emulsion according to claim 1 wherein said hydrocarbyl substituent is a polyolefin itself derived from C2-C6 mono-olefins with the proviso that ethylene is copolymerized with a higher olefin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
A water-in-oil emulsion according to claim 2 wherein said polyolefin is polyisobutylene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 13 words
A water-in-oil emulsion according to claim 1 wherein said alkanol is methyl alcohol.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A water-in-oil emulsion according to claim 1 wherein said polyoxyethylene mono-ol contains an average of from 5 to 10 oxyethylene groups.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 38 words
A water-in-oil emulsion according to claim 1 wherein said polyoxyethylene mono-ol is of about 315-385 average molecular weight and is derived from methanol, and wherein said hydrocarbyl substituent is of from about 900 to about 1,400 molecular weight.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 21 words
A water-in-oil emulsion according to claim 1 wherein said amount sufficient to stabilize said water-in-oil emulsion is about 0.1-5 weight percent.
