Abstract: The invention comprises lubricating compositions and hydraulic fluids containing N,N?-diaryl-p-phenylene diamine compounds that impart good levels of oxidation inhibition in the lubricants and hydraulic fluids.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to lubricating oils exhibiting improved resistance to oxidation and deposit/sludge formation comprising a lubricant base oil and an effective amount of a catalytic antioxidant comprising one or more polymetal organometallic compound, to a method for improving the antioxidancy and the resistance to deposit/sludge formation of formulated lubricating oil compositions by the addition thereto of an effective amount of the aforementioned polymetal organometallic compound, and to an additive concentrate containing the aforementioned polymetal organometallic compound.

Abstract: The anti-wear and load carrying properties of lubricating oils is enhanced by the addition of the combination of thiosalicylic acid and adenine. Phosphate ester anti-wear and load carrying additives may be employed with the combination of thiosalicylic acid and adenine.

Abstract: The smoke index of a two-stroke engine is improved by utilizing as the engine lubricant a two-stroke engine oil that comprises a major amount of a GTL base oil.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a lubricant composition comprising GLT base stock with an ashless detergent to improve air release properties. The ashless detergents comprise the products resulting from the reaction of a salicylic acid, organic group substituted salicylic acid, sulfonic acid or organic groups substituted sulfur acid with thiadiazole or organic group substituted thiadiazole or an alkyl primary or secondary amine.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to ashless detergents comprising the products resulting from the reaction of a salicylic acid, organic group substituted salicylic acid, sulfonic acid or organic groups substituted sulfur acid with thiadiazole or organic group substituted thiadiazole or an alkyl primary or secondary amine, and to formulated lubricating oils containing said ashless detergents.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to lubricating oils of improved antioxidancy comprising a base oil selected from the group consisting of mineral oils, synthetic oils and mixtures thereof containing an effective amount of one or more organometallic compound and/or coordination complex selected from the group consisting of (a) a metal or metal cation with more than one oxidation state, above the ground state, and two or more anions, (b) a metal or metal cation with more than one oxidation state above the ground state and one or more bidentate or tridentate ligands, (c) a metal or metal cation with more than one oxidation state above the ground slate, and one or more amines and one or more ligands, and (d) mixtures thereof, to a method for improving the antioxidancy of formulated lubricating oil compositions by the addition thereto of an effective amount of the aforementioned organometallic compound, and/or coordination complex, and to an additive concentrate containing the aforementioned organometallic compou

Abstract: A premium wear resistant lubricant comprises a base stock, preferably a GTL liquid or the liquid isomerization product of slack wax or F-T wax, and a non-ionic ashless anti-wear additive. The non-ionic ashless antiwear additive is preferably at least one of thiosalicylic acid or alkyl ester thereof, thioxomalonate, 2,2-dithiopyridine and thiazolidine. The lubricant may also contain additional base stock materials selected from other hydrocarbonaceous and synthetic base stock materials in admixture with the GTL liquid or slack wax or F-T derived base stock.
