Abstract

Abstract A lubricant of fuel composition contains a multifunctional antioxidant/metal deactivating and thermal stabilizing amount of a tolyltriazole-derived Mannich base made from a tolyltriazole, an aliphatic amine, such as diisobutylamine or bis(2-ethylhexyl)amine, a cyclic amine, such as 1,4-diaminocyclohexane or ether amines exemplified by C6 to C13 alkoxypropylamines and polyether primary amines such as those derived from nonylphenol ethyoxylates and formaldehyde. The reaction products are, optionally, treated with epoxide.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A lubricant composition comprising a major amount of a normally liquid lubricant and a minor amount of a lubricant additive having antioxidant, high temperature solubility and thermal stability properties comprising a reaction product made by reacting, in equimolar proportions, an aldehyde; a benzotriazole which has the structural formula: ##STR8## where R 1 is an alkyl group containing 1 to 60 carbon atoms or an alkyl group of 2 to 60 carbon atoms and containing at least one heteroatom which is oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen bonded to the alkyl group; and a polyether primary amine which has the structural formula ##STR9## where R 10 is an alkyl-substituted phenyl group containing 14 to 26 carbon atoms, n is an integer ranging from 2 to 10 and R 11 is independently hydrogen or methyl.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A lubricant composition comprising a major amount of a normally liquid lubricant and a minor amount of a lubricant additive having antioxidant, high temperature solubility and thermal stability properties comprising a reaction product made by reacting, in equimolar proportions, an aldehyde; a benzotriazole which has the structural formula: ##STR8## where R 1 is an alkyl group containing 1 to 60 carbon atoms or an alkyl group of 2 to 60 carbon atoms and containing at least one heteroatom which is oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen bonded to the alkyl group; and a polyether primary amine which has the structural formula ##STR9## where R 10 is an alkyl-substituted phenyl group containing 14 to 26 carbon atoms, n is an integer ranging from 2 to 10 and R 11 is independently hydrogen or methyl.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The lubricant composition of claim 1 in which the aldehyde is formaldehyde.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The lubricant composition of claim 1 in which the hydrocarbyl group designated as R 1 is methyl.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
The lubricant composition of claim 1 in which the lubricant is a mineral oil or synthetic oil or a mixture thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
The lubricant composition of claim 4 in which the lubricant composition is a grease comprising the mineral or synthetic oil or mixture thereof and a thickening agent.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 17 words
The lubricant composition of claim 1 in which the aldehyde is formaldehyde and the benzotriazole is tolyltriazole.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
The lubricant composition of claim 1 in which the polyether primary amine is derived from nonylphenol ethoxylates.
