Abstract: Alkoxylated- or polyalkoxylate-amine-phosphite derived olefin adducts are superior as lubricating fluid media and as multifunctional additives with internal synergistic antioxidant and extreme pressure/antiwear properties for both mineral and synthetic lubricating oils as well as fuels.

Abstract: Cyclic diol- and diol-ester phosphite adducts of olefins and polymeric olefins provide superior multifunctional and lubricating fluid media with internal synergistic multifunctional antiwear, antioxidant properties and extreme pressure/antiwear additives for both mineral and synthetic lubricating oils as well as liquid hydrocarbon fuels.

Abstract: Sulfur derivatives of unsaturated oligomers formed from alpha-olefins of 2 to 20 carbon atoms which oligomer has a branch ratio of less than 0.19.

Abstract: It has now been discovered that oligomers of C.sub.6 - C.sub.20 alpha-olefins, such as 1-decene, with branch ratios below 0.19 and high viscosity indices (HVI) can be functionalized to provide unique phosphite derivatives. Functionalized polyalpha-olefin lubricants compositions are prepared with superior properties by adding functionalized organophosphites to the olefinic bond of HVI-PAO. The invention encompasses a process for the preparation of lubricant range hydrocarbons containing phosphonate functional groups, comprising;reacting olefinic C.sub.20 + polyalpha-olefin oligomers having a branch ratio of less than 0.19 and phosphite ester in a mixture with peroxide catalyst at elevated temperature whereby phosphite ester adduct of said polyalpha-olefin is formed;separating said reaction mixture products and recovering said adduct.

Abstract: Novel phosphite derivatives of propylene based lube olefins are novel lubricating fluid media with internal synergistic multifunctional extreme pressure, antiwear and antioxidant properties. These compounds exhibit the same multifunctional characteristics when used in minor additive amounts in either mineral or synthetic lubricating oils as well as fuels.

Abstract: Sulfurized propylene based lube olefin derivatives are superior lubricating fluids with internal synergistic multifunctional extreme pressure/antiwear and antioxidant properties as well as multifunctional extreme pressure/antiwear additives for both mineral and synthetic lubricating oils as well as fuels.

Abstract: Hydrocarbyl thiophosphoric acid-phosphite derived olefin and polymeric olefin adducts are superior as lubricating fluid media with internal synergistic multifunctional antiwear, antioxidant properties, and as multifunctional extreme pressure/antiwear additives for both mineral and synthetic lubricating oils as well as fuels.
