Abstract: A composition comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity and a compound represented by formula (I) wherein: x is 0 or 1; R1 is a hydrocarbyl group containing about 4 or about 18 carbon atoms; R2 is an aliphatic hydrocarbyl group containing about 1 to about 12 carbon atoms; and y is 0 or 1, which composition is effective at swelling seals.

Abstract: The invention relates to a seal swell agent which is a substituted sulfonyldibenzene compound, and lubricating compositions containing the seal swell agent. The substituents on the benzene rings may be hydrocarbyl groups of 4 to 20 carbon atoms or alkylene groups of 1-2 carbon atoms with further functional groups.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to the inhibition of corrosion on electrically conductive componentry subjected to a lubricant composition, but that is not submersed in the lubricant composition, or in other words, vapor phase corrosion inhibition. The technology more particularly relates to the use of azole compounds capable of inhibiting corrosion of the electrically conductive componentry in the vapor space above a lubricant composition, and often in the liquid phase of the lubricant composition as well.
