Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 64 words
A lubricant composition comprising a major proportion of an oil of lubricating viscosity of grease prepared therefrom, and a minor effective proportion of a friction reducing additive consisting of C 8 to C 29 borated adducts of a hydrocarbyl mono- or diamine and mixtures thereof wherein said hydrocarbyl comprises a member selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkenyl, alkylene cycloalkyl and mixtures thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 64 words
A lubricant composition comprising a major proportion of an oil of lubricating viscosity of grease prepared therefrom, and a minor effective proportion of a friction reducing additive consisting of C 8 to C 29 borated adducts of a hydrocarbyl mono- or diamine and mixtures thereof wherein said hydrocarbyl comprises a member selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkenyl, alkylene cycloalkyl and mixtures thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said additive is borated oleyl amine.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said additive is borated N-oleyl-1,3-propylenediamine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said additive is borated N-coco-1,3-propylenediamine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said additive is borated N-soya-1,3-propylenediamine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said additive is borated N-tallow-1,3-propylenediamine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composition of claims 1, 2 or 3 wherein said oil of lubricating viscosity is a mineral oil.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composition of claims 1, 2 or 3 wherein said oil of lubricating viscosity is a snythetic oil.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 22 words
The composition of claim 1, 2 or 3 wherein said oil of lubricating viscosity is a mixture of synthetic and mineral oils.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claims 1, 2 or 3 wherein said major proportion is a grease.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 16 words
The composition of claim 1 containing from 0.1 to about 10 wt. % of said additive.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 13 words
The composition of claim 11 containing about 2-4 wt. % of said additive.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 56 words
A method of reducing the riction between the moving parts of internal combustion engines, thereby reducing said engines fuel consumption comprising incorporating a minor effective friction reducing amount of a borated hydrocarbyl amine as defined in claim 1 whereby friction reducing characteristics are imparted to said lubricant composition and thereafter treating said internal combustion engine therewith.
