Abstract

Abstract Lubricating oil compositions which contain polycarboxylic acid-glycol esters as friction modifiers in combination with hydrocarbon soluble alkenyl succinimide dispersants with reduced tendency toward formation of sediment upon storage through addition of small proportions of polyol or polyol anhydride partial ester of a fatty acid or an ethoxylated fatty acid, amine or amide stabilizer. Glycerol oleates are preferred stabilizer additive.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 130 words
A storage stable lubricating oil composition having a reduced tendency to form sediment comprising a lubricating oil containing: (a) 0.01 to 2 percent by weight of a polycarboxylic acid-glycol ester friction reducing component; (b) 0.1 to 10 percent by weight of an oil-soluble alkenyl succinimide or borated alkenyl succinimide dispersant; (c) an oil-soluble stabilizer additive being a polyol or polyol anhydride partial ester of a C 18 -C 22 unsaturated fatty acid in an amount effective to reduce the tendency of said lubricating oil compositions to form sediment, and (d) a metal containing additive being a normal or basic metal phenate, sulfurized phenate or sulfonate in an amount of from 2 to 5 weight percent or a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate in an amount of from about 1 to 3 weight percent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 130 words
A storage stable lubricating oil composition having a reduced tendency to form sediment comprising a lubricating oil containing: (a) 0.01 to 2 percent by weight of a polycarboxylic acid-glycol ester friction reducing component; (b) 0.1 to 10 percent by weight of an oil-soluble alkenyl succinimide or borated alkenyl succinimide dispersant; (c) an oil-soluble stabilizer additive being a polyol or polyol anhydride partial ester of a C 18 -C 22 unsaturated fatty acid in an amount effective to reduce the tendency of said lubricating oil compositions to form sediment, and (d) a metal containing additive being a normal or basic metal phenate, sulfurized phenate or sulfonate in an amount of from 2 to 5 weight percent or a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate in an amount of from about 1 to 3 weight percent.
