  • Publication number: 20190112542
    Abstract: A lubricating composition includes an oil of lubricating viscosity and an oil-soluble dispersant viscosity modifier. The dispersant viscosity modifier includes an olefin-based polymer backbone and at least one pendent group derived from a functionalized aliphatic amine. Each pendent group is independently attached to the olefin-based polymer backbone. The pendent group is non-ionic, non-basic, and non-acidic and includes a functional group which includes at least one heteroatom other than nitrogen.

  • Publication number: 20170283733
    Abstract: A lubricating composition includes an oil of lubricating viscosity and an oil-soluble dispersant viscosity modifier, which includes an olefin-based polymer backbone and at least one pendent functional group. Each of the at least one pendent functional group is independently attached to the olefin-based polymer backbone by a linking group. The at least one pendent functional group includes a sulfonate moiety.

  • Patent number: 8973435
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring a resultant flow delivered by a pump coupled to an over pressure valve, the method comprising the steps of: measuring, using a first flow meter, feed flow to the pump; measuring, using a second flow meter, return flow from the over pressure valve; and calculating resultant flow, at least in part, by subtracting measured return flow from measured feed flow. A pump power modification module can further modifying the pump output pressure to enable pressure profiling.
