Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 96 words
A hydraulic fluid which comprises as the base stock, 95% to 99.99% by weight of a liquid mixed trialkylphosphine oxide wherein the alkyls are C 6 to C 10 , said trialkylphosphine oxide being obtained by phosphinating, in the presence of a free radical initiator, a mixture of the corresponding alpha olefin with phosphine in a molar ratio of 3 to 1 to form a mixed trialkylphosphine followed by oxidation of said mixed trialkylphosphine to the corresponding phosphine oxide and in admixture with the base stock about 0.01% to 5.0% by weight of hydraulic fluid additives.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 96 words
A hydraulic fluid which comprises as the base stock, 95% to 99.99% by weight of a liquid mixed trialkylphosphine oxide wherein the alkyls are C 6 to C 10 , said trialkylphosphine oxide being obtained by phosphinating, in the presence of a free radical initiator, a mixture of the corresponding alpha olefin with phosphine in a molar ratio of 3 to 1 to form a mixed trialkylphosphine followed by oxidation of said mixed trialkylphosphine to the corresponding phosphine oxide and in admixture with the base stock about 0.01% to 5.0% by weight of hydraulic fluid additives.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
A hydraulic fluid according to claim 1 wherein the mixed trialkylphosphine oxide contains approximately equal molar ratios of alkyls selected from the class consisting essentially of hexyl, octyl and decyl.
