Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 63 words
A dispersant lubricating oil additive having a relatively low nitrogen content which is the reaction product obtained upon reacting a bis primary amine composition free from secondary amines with an admixture comprising an aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted phenol and formaldehyde at an equivalents ratio of amine:phenol:formaldehyde of about 0.7-1:1:1.5-2.2, where the bis primary amine composition comprises bis(p-aminocyclohexyl) methane, isomers thereof, and three-and four-ring analogs thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 63 words
A dispersant lubricating oil additive having a relatively low nitrogen content which is the reaction product obtained upon reacting a bis primary amine composition free from secondary amines with an admixture comprising an aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted phenol and formaldehyde at an equivalents ratio of amine:phenol:formaldehyde of about 0.7-1:1:1.5-2.2, where the bis primary amine composition comprises bis(p-aminocyclohexyl) methane, isomers thereof, and three-and four-ring analogs thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 79 words
The dispersant lubricating oil additive in accordance with claim 1 wherein said bis(primary amine) composition contains bis(p-aminocyclohexyl)methane in an amount of about 16 to about 23 percent by weight, methylene bis-aniline in an amount of about 1 to about 5 percent by weight, isomers of bis(p-aminocyclohexyl)methane in an amount of about 4 to about 13 percent by weight, and analogs of bis(p-aminocyclohexyl)methane containing three and four rings in an amount of about 48 to about 62 percent by weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The dispersant lubricating oil additive accordance with claim 1 wherein the aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted phenol is polybutyl phenol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
The dispersant lubricating oil additive of claim 1 wherein said admixture of aliphatic hydrocarbon substituted phenol and formaldehyde further comprises a fatty acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 9 words
A lubricating oil comprising the additive of claim 1.
