Abstract

Abstract Multirange lubricating oils having high shear stability comprising paraffinic oils as their base and containing, as an additive improving the viscosity index, a mixture of at least two different polymer species, each of said polymer species being composed of monomers selected from the group consisting of (a) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with linear alcohols having 6 to 15 carbon atoms, (b) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with linear alcohols having from 16 to 30 carbon atoms, (c) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with branched alcohols having from 6 to 40 carbon atoms, (d) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with alcohols having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and (e) other monomers, different from (a)-(d), susceptible to free-radical copolymerization, and containing functional groups in the molecule, monomer or monomers (a) being from 0 to 100 mole percent of said polymer species, monomer(s) (b) being from 0 to 10 mole percent, monomers (c), (d) and (e) combined being from 0 to 100 mole percent, and monomers (a) to (e) combined being 100 mole percent of said polymer species, said individual polymer species differing from one another by at least 10 mole percent with respect to their content of component (a).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 257 words
A multirange lubricating oil having high shear stability comprising 40-80 percent, by weight, paraffinic based oils and the balance being an additive improving the viscosity index, said additive being a mixture of from 10 to 20 percent each, by weight of said oil, of at least two different polymer species, each of said species comprising monomers selected from the group consisting of (a) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with linear alcohols having from 6 to 15 carbon atoms, (b) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with linear alcohols having from 16 to 30 carbon atoms, (c) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with branched alcohols having from 6 to 40 carbon atoms, (d) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with alcohols having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and (e) other monomers, different from (a)-(d), capable of free radical copolymerization and having the formula H 2 C=C(R 1 )--B s , wherein R 1 is hydrogen or methyl and B s is an inert heterocyclic five- or six-membered ring or is --C(O)--Z--Q--NR 2 R 3 , wherein Z is oxygen or --NR 4 , Q is a linear or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon bridge having from 2 to 10 carbon atoms, R 2 and R 3 taken alone are each alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms or, taken together with the nitrogen atom and inclusive of other possible hetero atoms, form a heterocyclic five- or six-membered ring, and R 4 is hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 257 words
A multirange lubricating oil having high shear stability comprising 40-80 percent, by weight, paraffinic based oils and the balance being an additive improving the viscosity index, said additive being a mixture of from 10 to 20 percent each, by weight of said oil, of at least two different polymer species, each of said species comprising monomers selected from the group consisting of (a) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with linear alcohols having from 6 to 15 carbon atoms, (b) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with linear alcohols having from 16 to 30 carbon atoms, (c) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with branched alcohols having from 6 to 40 carbon atoms, (d) esters of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid with alcohols having from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and (e) other monomers, different from (a)-(d), capable of free radical copolymerization and having the formula H 2 C=C(R 1 )--B s , wherein R 1 is hydrogen or methyl and B s is an inert heterocyclic five- or six-membered ring or is --C(O)--Z--Q--NR 2 R 3 , wherein Z is oxygen or --NR 4 , Q is a linear or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon bridge having from 2 to 10 carbon atoms, R 2 and R 3 taken alone are each alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms or, taken together with the nitrogen atom and inclusive of other possible hetero atoms, form a heterocyclic five- or six-membered ring, and R 4 is hydrogen or alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
A multirange lubricating oil as in claim 1 wherein said additive is a mixture of from 10 to 20 percent each, by weight of said oil, of two different polymer species.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
A multirange lubricating oil as in claim 1 which additionally comprises from 0.05 to 1.0 percent, by weight of said lubricating oil, of an additive improving the pour point.
