Abstract: The Mannich reaction products of certain diaminopropanes with formaldehyde and salicylic acids are potent carburetor detergents and corrosion inhibitors in hydrocarbon fuels, particularly in gasoline.
Abstract: A process for stabilizing fuels during storage by blending therewith oxalic acid derivatives of mono- or bis-succinimides of polyalkylpolyamines. The fuels are stabilized by the presence of 10 to 100 parts per thousand barrels of these oxamides. For particular applications mixtures of mono- and bis-succinimides in varying proportions can be used.
Abstract: Disclosed is an in situ or "one pot" process for making a fuel additive comprising reacting an excess of at least one N-primary alkylalkylene diamine with maleic anhydride in the presence of from 20 to 36 weight percent of a mineral oil reaction diluent at a temperature ranging from ambient to about 225.degree. F. and recovering a product containing a primary aliphatic hydrocarbon amino alkylene substituted asparagine, an N-primary alkylalkylene diamine in the reaction oil with the product having a by-product succinimide content not in excess of 1.0 weight percent, based on the weight of asparagine present.
Abstract: Disclosed are novel curing agents for polyurethanes comprising reaction products of (1) a polyoxy alkylenepolyamine with (2) an alpha-substituted acrylic acid derivative wherein the substituent has a terminal hydroxyl group or (3) with a compound having an oxyrane ring and reaction products of (1) and (2) above, with (3) and (1) and (3) above, with (2). Also disclosed is a process for making polyurethanes by condensing a polyol with an isocyanate in the presence of the present curing agents in an amount ranging from 5 to 100 percent by weight of the polyol.
Abstract: Disclosed are novel compounds prepared by the reaction of an adduct of a phosphosulfurized polyisoalkylene or alpha olefin with an acidified hexavalent molybdenum salt which give enhanced copper corrosion protection relative to the non-molybdenum treated adducts when incorporated in lubricants.Also disclosed is the combination of such compounds with a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate, which combination imparts to lubricants an oxidation inhibition greater than is obtainable with either the zinc dialkyldithiophosphate or the molybdenum-containing adduct alone.

Abstract: In the preparation of overbased calcium sulfonates the use of a mixture of calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide wherein the mole ratio CaO/CaOH.sub.2 +Ca(OH).sub.2 ranges from 0.2 to 1.0 improves lime and sulfonate utilization and reduces the amount of solid waste material which must be filtered from the product.
Abstract: The spreadability of marine diesel cylinder oils is improved by the incorporation therein of a polyoxyethylene sorbitol lanolin of the formula: ##STR1## /wherein n ranges from 14 to 16.
Abstract: The spreadability of marine diesel cylinder oils is improved by the incorporation therein of a polyethylene glycol of the formula:R--CH.sub.2 O--(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n Hwherein n ranges from 7 to 40 and R is an alkyl group containing from 11 to 15 carbon atoms.
Abstract: The invention provides molybdenum-zinc dialkyldithiophosphates useful as friction-reducing, anti-wear and oxidation-inhibiting agents in lubricants, in particular, in fuel economy oils.
Abstract: This invention concerns dispersant-VI improvers prepared by reacting a polyamine-derived dispersant with an oxidized ethylene-propylene polymer or ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer. The products thus formed have a dispersancy superior to that obtained by separately blending the reactants in a lubricating oil. Also disclosed are oils containing the present dispersant-VI improvers.

Abstract: The amount of smoke, soot and invisible particulates emitted with the exhaust of engines run on diesel fuel is reduced by incorporating therein an additive consisting of a synergistic mixture of cyclohexane with an oxygenated compound which readily gives up oxygen during combustion.Also disclosed is a method of operating a diesel engine using the fuel of the invention.
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for preparing 4-haloalkyl alcohols by reacting tetrahydrofuran derivatives and hydrogen halides in the presence of a resinous quaternary ammonium halide catalyst, preferably styrene-divinyl benzene copolymer resins having pendant N(R).sub.3 X, where X is halogen, or N(R).sub.2 groups of tetrahydrofuran. The haloalcohols are useful intermediates for the preparation of dyes, halogenated polymers, pharmaceuticals, polymerization catalysts and plasticizers.
Abstract: Described are low ash, low phosphorus motor oils having improved oxidation stability as a result of the addition thereto of synergistic amounts of a dialkyldiphenylamine antioxidant and of a sulfurized polyolefin. The synergism between the two additives compensates for the decreased amounts of phosphorus in the form of zinc dithiophosphate such that the oils retain an SE quality rating.
Abstract: Disclosed are molybdenum derivatives of high molecular weight alkenylsuccinimides and lubricant compositions containing such derivatives which impart dispersant, oxidation inhibition, anti-wear and friction-reducing properties to these compositions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for breaking an oil-in-water emulsion, in particular a raw emulsion produced in in situ tar sand plants, by first contacting with a polyethylene polymeric resin having a molecular weight in the range of 100,000 and 7,000,000 the raw emulsions; allowing to stand for two to four hours; adding a hydrocarbon diluent, optionally containing a larger amount of resin and then removing a mixture of diluent and oil floating on the water surface.
Abstract: A process for recovering oil from oil-in-water petroleum emulsions stabilized with clay and/or other solids by subjecting them to the action of an optimum amount of non-ionic, water-soluble, aryl sulfonates-oxyalkylated phenol formaldehyde resins at a pH of 7.0 to 8.0 and then adding a saturated aqueous alkali metal halide solution to the resulting mixture. The process is carried out at between about 200.degree. F. and 240.degree. F. and the mixture is allowed to stand in the quiescent state for a period of about 1 to about 10 hours to allow the halide solution to increase the specific gravity of the resulting aqueous phase by at least 0.02 thereby causing the bitumen to float and facilitating recovery of the oil.
