Patent number: 9334462Abstract: A lubricating composition includes one or more base oils, at least one dimercaptothiadiazole derivative, at least one ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer and at least one amine thiophosphate. The composition can be used for lubricating transmissions such as gearboxes and axles, preferably the manual gearboxes of motor vehicles and enable a reduction in the fuel consumption of vehicles, in particular of motor vehicles, due to the combination of the ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer, dimercaptothiadiazole derivative and amine thiophosphate which decreases the coefficient of friction of the lubricating composition.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2012Date of Patent: May 10, 2016Assignee: TOTAL MARKETING SERVICESInventors: Alain Bouffet, Alder Da Costa D'ambros, Richard Vernay, Gérard Thomesse

Publication number: 20160010024Abstract: A lubricating composition includes at least one base oil, at least one compound including a dithiocarbamate group, at least one compound including a phosphite group and at least one compound including a dithiophosphate group. The lubricating composition simultaneously has good anti-wear and extreme-pressure properties, a low coefficient of friction and good anti-seizing properties. The lubricating composition can be used for lubricating transmissions such as gearboxes, axles, preferably the manual gearboxes of motor vehicles.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 14, 2013Publication date: January 14, 2016Applicant: TOTAL MARKETING SERVICESInventors: Alain BOUFFET, Goulven BOUVIER

Patent number: 9120076Abstract: The subject of the disclosure concerns microcapsules including a core containing one or more alkali metal borates, optionally hydrated, dispersed in one or more lubricating base oils of mineral, synthetic or natural origin, and a polymer shell. Another subject of the disclosure is a lubricating oil including microcapsules. A further subject of the disclosure is the use of microcapsules according to the disclosure as anti-wear and/or extreme pressure additive for lubricant compositions. A further subject of the disclosure is a method for preparing microcapsules by interface polymerization.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2010Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignee: TOTAL MARKETING SERVICESInventors: Emmanuel Matray, Alain Bouffet, Christian Gonneaud
