  • Patent number: 8772530
    Abstract: A pentaerythritol tetraester which is a mixed ester of pentaerythritol and carboxylic acids is provided, wherein the carboxylic acids consist of isobutyric acid and 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid and the molar ratio of isobutyric acid to 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid in the carboxylic acids is 36/64 to 80/20. The pentaerythritol tetraester may be used in a refrigerant oil or the like which exhibits excellent miscibility with a difluoromethane refrigerant among other properties.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 30, 2011
    Date of Patent: July 8, 2014
    Assignee: KH Neochem Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Toshihiro Inayama, Satoshi Hiyoshi, Nobuhito Amemiya, Shigehisa Kishimoto
  • Patent number: 8664430
    Abstract: A pentaerythritol tetraester which is a mixed ester of pentaerythritol and carboxylic acids is provided, wherein the carboxylic acids comprise isobutyric acid and 2-ethylhexanoic acid and the molar ratio of isobutyric acid to 2-ethylhexanoic acid in the carboxylic acids is 36/64 to 83/17. The pentaerythritol tetraester may be used in a refrigerant oil or the like which exhibits excellent miscibility with a difluoromethane refrigerant among other properties.

  • Patent number: 8455413
    Abstract: An additive for oils that is capable of imparting oils such as lubricant base oils with superior wear resistance properties or friction resistance properties, and a lubricant. An additive for oils that includes a compound represented by formula (I) is used. A and B each represents a single bond or hydrocarbylene or the like, X and Y each represents a sulfur atom or single bond, and W and Z each represents a hydrogen atom or —NR1R2 or the like, provided that W and Z are not both hydrogen atoms. R1 and R2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a hydrocarbyl or a hydrocarbylcarbonyl or the like, and n and m each represents an integer of 0 to 5.
