  • Patent number: 6528458
    Abstract: Compositions comprising (a) an oil of lubricating viscosity; (b) 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (DMTD), a derivative of DMTD, or mixtures thereof; (c) a friction modifier; and (d) a dispersant, are useful for lubricating a transmission having a plurality of wet clutches and a plurality of partial power transmission shafts, wherein shifting of gears occurs by a process comprising synchronization of an engaged and a non-engaged partial transmission shaft and engagement of a wet clutch.

  • Patent number: 5110488
    Abstract: Lubricating compositions containing up to about 0.015% by weight of phosphorus. These compositions comprise oil, metal salts of phosphorus-containing acids having at least one secondary hydrocarbon substituent, a boron-containing acylated nitrogen-containing compound and optionally an acylated nitrogen-containing compound and/or a zinc salt of a carboxylic acid. The lubricating oil compositions are useful in various application including engine oils, power transmission fluids, including automatic transmission fluids, functional fluids and the like.

  • Patent number: 4612129
    Abstract: Sulfur-containing, oil-soluble compositions are described which are useful as lubricating oil additives, particularly in lubricants containing little or no phosphorus. In one embodiment, the compositions of the invention comprise (A) at least one metal salt of at least one dithiocarbamic acid of the formulaR.sub.1 (R.sub.2)N--CSSH (I)wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently hydrocarbyl groups in which the total number of carbon atoms in R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is sufficient to render the metal salt oil-soluble, (B) at least one oil-soluble sulfurized organic compound, and (C) at least one auxiliary corrosion-inhibitor. In other embodiments, the compositions also contain (D) at least one detergent/dispersant. Lubricating oil compositions containing the compositions of the invention exhibit improved oxidation-corrosion-inhibiting properties, anti-wear properties, and/or extreme pressure properties. Such lubricating compositions containing less than about 0.
