Abstract

Abstract The anti-wear properties of lubricating oil compositions containing overbased calcium sulfonate are improved when a complex of a zinc salt of a cyclic hydrocarbyl dithiophosphoric acid of 2,4-pentanediol and a succinimide is added to the oil. Oil compositions containing this combination are useful as crankcase lubricants.
