Abstract: 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.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a lubricant composition including: (a) an organomolybdenum compound, (b) one or more anti-wear and extreme pressure additives chosen from thia(di)azoles, (c) one or more phosphorus-containing or phosphor-sulfur-containing anti-wear and extreme pressure additives chosen from phosphites, phosphates, phosphonates, thiophosphates or thiophosphites, the lubricant composition having a weight content of molybdenum between 90 and 350 ppm. This is used for lubrication of gear boxes.
