  • Publication number: 20250340796
    Abstract: The present application relates to the use of a lubricant composition comprising a base oil or a base oil mixture having a viscosity (BOV or base oil viscosity) of less than or equal to 4, for reducing the particulate emissions of an engine. The present application relates to the use of a lubricant composition comprising a base oil or a mixture of base oils, for reducing the particulate emissions of an engine, in which said base oil or said mixture of base oils has a kinematic viscosity, measured at 100° C., of less than or equal to 4.5 mm2/s, and in which said lubricant composition has a viscosity at 150° C. and under constant shear of greater than or equal to 2.4 mPa.s?1.

  • Patent number: 12460148
    Abstract: The present patent application relates to the use, as detergent additive in a lubricating composition intended for a motorization system, of a spiro compound of formula (I) in which M is an atom selected from boron and aluminum; R, independently of one another, represent a hydrocarbon group comprising from 1 to 50 carbon atoms; and n1 and n2, independently of one another, equal 0, 1 or 2. It also relates to a lubricating composition intended for the lubrication of a motorization system, comprising one or more base oils and at least one spiro compound of formula (I), and to a process for lubricating a motorization system using such a composition.
