Abstract

Abstract The ability of marine diesel engine cylinder lubricants is improved by the incorporation therein of a spreadability improving amount of at least one polyoxyethylene ester of the formula: ##STR1## wherein n ranges from 18 to 22 and R is an alkyl group having 11 to 17 carbon atoms in the chain.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 99 words
In a process for improving the spreadability of a diesel engine cylinder lubricant comprising an oil having an SAE viscosity of 50 and having a total base number ranging from about 50 to 100 provided by the presence therein of effective amounts of conventional alkaline detergent dispersants, the improvement consisting of blending with said lubricant a spreadability improving amount of at least one polyoxyethylene ester of the formula: ##STR8## wherein R is an alkyl group having from 11 to 17 carbon atoms and n is 18 to 22, said ester having a molecular weight ranging from 1000 to 1200.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 99 words
In a process for improving the spreadability of a diesel engine cylinder lubricant comprising an oil having an SAE viscosity of 50 and having a total base number ranging from about 50 to 100 provided by the presence therein of effective amounts of conventional alkaline detergent dispersants, the improvement consisting of blending with said lubricant a spreadability improving amount of at least one polyoxyethylene ester of the formula: ##STR8## wherein R is an alkyl group having from 11 to 17 carbon atoms and n is 18 to 22, said ester having a molecular weight ranging from 1000 to 1200.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 107 words
In a process for lubricating the moving metal surfaces of a marine diesel engine cylinder which comprises causing a film of a diesel oil having a total base number ranging from about 50 to 100 provided by effective amounts of conventional alkaline detergents-dispersants, and an SAE viscosity of 50 to spread on said surfaces, the improvement consisting of incorporating in said diesel oil, 1.0 to 5.0 weight percent thereof of at least one polyethoxylated ester having a molecular weight of 1000 to 1200 spreadability of the formula: ##STR9## wherein R is an alkyl group having from 11 to 17 carbon atoms and n is 18 to 22.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 107 words
In a process for lubricating the moving metal surfaces of a marine diesel engine cylinder which comprises causing a film of a diesel oil having a total base number ranging from about 50 to 100 provided by effective amounts of conventional alkaline detergents-dispersants, and an SAE viscosity of 50 to spread on said surfaces, the improvement consisting of incorporating in said diesel oil, 1.0 to 5.0 weight percent thereof of at least one polyethoxylated ester having a molecular weight of 1000 to 1200 spreadability of the formula: ##STR9## wherein R is an alkyl group having from 11 to 17 carbon atoms and n is 18 to 22.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 93 words
A diesel engine lubricant comprising an oil having an SAE viscosity of 50 and a total base number ranging from about 50 to about 100 provided by the presence therein of effective amounts of conventional alkaline detergents-dispersants including overbased calcium sulfonates and carbonates, said lubricant having improved spreadability resulting from the incorporation therewith of a spreadability improving amount of a polyoxyethylene ester of the formula: ##STR10## wherein R is an alkyl group having 17 carbon atoms, n is 20 and said ester has a molecular weight in the range of 1100 to 1170.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 93 words
A diesel engine lubricant comprising an oil having an SAE viscosity of 50 and a total base number ranging from about 50 to about 100 provided by the presence therein of effective amounts of conventional alkaline detergents-dispersants including overbased calcium sulfonates and carbonates, said lubricant having improved spreadability resulting from the incorporation therewith of a spreadability improving amount of a polyoxyethylene ester of the formula: ##STR10## wherein R is an alkyl group having 17 carbon atoms, n is 20 and said ester has a molecular weight in the range of 1100 to 1170.
