Abstract

Abstract Precipitation of a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate prepared from a mixture of about 50 to 90 mole percent of a lower alcohol plus 50 to 10 mole percent of a higher alcohol may be prevented by the addition to the composition of from about 0.5 to 10.0 percent by weight of an alkyl or alkenyl mono- or bis-succinimide.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 133 words
An anti-oxidant anti-corrosion zinc dialkyldithiophosphate composition which is stable to precipitation which comprises: (a) a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate prepared from the reaction of phosphorus pentasulfide with a mixture of about 50 to 90 percent of a lower alcohol plus about 50 to 10 percent of a higher alcohol followed by neutralization of the resulting dialkyldithiophosphoric acid with a basically reacting zinc compound; and (b) about 0.1 to 10.0 percent by weight to the zinc dialkyldithiophosphate of an oil-soluble alkenyl or alkyl mono- or bis-succinimide of the formula: ##STR8## wherein X is amino or a group of the formula: ##STR9## R 7 is an alkenyl or alkyl group containing from about 20 to 60 carbon atoms; U is alkylene containing 2 to 6 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of from 0 to 6.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 133 words
An anti-oxidant anti-corrosion zinc dialkyldithiophosphate composition which is stable to precipitation which comprises: (a) a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate prepared from the reaction of phosphorus pentasulfide with a mixture of about 50 to 90 percent of a lower alcohol plus about 50 to 10 percent of a higher alcohol followed by neutralization of the resulting dialkyldithiophosphoric acid with a basically reacting zinc compound; and (b) about 0.1 to 10.0 percent by weight to the zinc dialkyldithiophosphate of an oil-soluble alkenyl or alkyl mono- or bis-succinimide of the formula: ##STR8## wherein X is amino or a group of the formula: ##STR9## R 7 is an alkenyl or alkyl group containing from about 20 to 60 carbon atoms; U is alkylene containing 2 to 6 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of from 0 to 6.
