Publication number: 20150274619Abstract: Unsaturated alcohol compositions are obtained by reducing a metathesis-derived hydrocarbyl unsaturated ester. Also disclosed is a process for preparing an unsaturated alcohol composition, where a metathesis derived hydrocarbyl carbonyl compound is reacted in the presence of a silane compound, an organic solvent, and a catalyst system prepared from a metallic complex and a reducing agent. This mixture is then hydrolyzed with a metallic base, and then mixed with organic solvent. The resultant mixture is then separated, washed, dried, and/or purified to produce the unsaturated alcohol composition. The unsaturated alcohol derivatives are useful in many end-use applications, including, for example, lubricants, functional fluids, fuels, functional additives for such lubricants, functional fluids and fuels, plasticizers, asphalt additives, friction reducing agents, plastics, and adhesives.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2015Publication date: October 1, 2015Applicant: ELEVANCE RENEWABLE SCIENCES, INC.Inventors: Stephen A.

Publication number: 20040235678Abstract: An additive package including an oil-insoluble additive, a method for forming an additive package with an oil-insoluble additive and a lubricant in the form of a dispersion of an oil-insoluble additive in oil is described where an oil-insoluble solvent, e.g. water, can be used to help create the dispersed phase. These packages, methods and lubricants are beneficial in various applications such as internal combustion engines where the oil benefits from functional additives that are not readily soluble in the oil. In many embodiments the oil-insoluble solvent is partially or fully removed before use.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2004Publication date: November 25, 2004Inventors: Stephen A Di Biase, Stephen J Cook, Alexandra Mayhew
