Abstract: A process for preparing a borated, overbased metal detergent additive for lubricants which comprises dissolving a metal salt in a hydrocarbon solvent, adding a metal base and a polar solvent, treating with an acid gas, filtering the mixture to form a filtrate to which boric acid is added, heating the boric acid/filtrate mixture, stripping the cooled boric acid/filtrate reaction mixture and recovering the borated metal detergent additive therefrom.

Abstract: A process for preparing a borated, overbased metal detergent additive for lubricants which comprises borating an overbased metal salt in the presence of a protic solvent, distilling the borated metal salt mixture to remove protic solvent and water therefrom, cooling the distilled borated mixture, filtering the cooled borated mixture, stripping the cooled filtrate and recovering the borated metal detergent additive.

Abstract: Disclosed are novel compounds prepared by the reaction of an adduct of a phosphosulfurized polyisoalkylene or alpha olefin with an acidified hexavalent molybdenum salt which give enhanced copper corrosion protection relative to the non-molybdenum treated adducts when incorporated in lubricants.Also disclosed is the combination of such compounds with a zinc dialkyldithiophosphate, which combination imparts to lubricants an oxidation inhibition greater than is obtainable with either the zinc dialkyldithiophosphate or the molybdenum-containing adduct alone.

Abstract: The invention provides molybdenum-zinc dialkyldithiophosphates useful as friction-reducing, anti-wear and oxidation-inhibiting agents in lubricants, in particular, in fuel economy oils.

Abstract: Disclosed are molybdenum derivatives of high molecular weight alkenylsuccinimides and lubricant compositions containing such derivatives which impart dispersant, oxidation inhibition, anti-wear and friction-reducing properties to these compositions.

Abstract: Disclosed are multipurpose lubricant additives which are prepared by reaction of carbon disulfide with thiomolybdenum derivatives of polyalkenylsuccinimides having basic nitrogen functions. The subject additives function as dispersants possessing excellent anti-frictional properties and impart anti-wear and anti-oxidant properties to a lubricant.

Abstract: A polyurethane which is a reaction product of a diisocyanate and a diol. The polyurethane product is useful as a dispersant for lubricants and fuels.
