The process results in reducing crude sediment whereby the resulting overbased metal dithiophosphate may need not undergo additional filtration steps prior to its intended use.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2004Date of Patent: October 25, 2005Assignee: Chevron Oronite Company LLCInventor: William R. Ruhe, Jr.

Patent number: 6887835Abstract: Lubricants, especially lubricating oils, and fuels, especially hydrocarbon fuels, contain a class of anti-wear, anti-fatigue, and extreme pressure additives that are derived from silanes. The additives can be used as either partial or complete replacements for zinc dialkyldithiophosphates currently used in lubricants and fuels.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2003Date of Patent: May 3, 2005Assignee: Crompton CorporationInventors: Cyril A. Migdal, Robert G. Rowland, David J. Sikora, Frederick D. Osterholtz

Patent number: 6858568Abstract: Lubricants are taught that can quickly and easily form a lubricating layer on a metal surface of a metal before plastic processing. Such lubricants preferably include a primary lubricating agent or component having a bridge complex that satisfies the following conditions: (1) the complex contains at least two central metal atoms; (2) at least one first multidentate ligand forms a bridge between two central metal atoms; and (3) at least one second multidentate ligand is bound to at least one central metal atom and has at least one coordinating atom that can coordinate with metal atoms, but which is not coordinated with any of the central metal atoms or is only partially coordinated with at least one of those central metal atoms. A third multidentate ligand is preferably also bound to one of the central metal atoms and may preferably include at least two sulfur atoms that are coordinated to the central metal atom.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2001Date of Patent: February 22, 2005Assignee: MEC International CorporationInventors: Heijiro Ojima, Fumio Kawahara, Mitsuru Tomono

Patent number: 6852678Abstract: An aqueous lubricant is provided which by simple application onto metal surfaces forms lubricating films required for heavy working of metals, and which contains no oil. The aqueous lubricant is prepared by suspending or dispersing a metal chelate compound in water with a surfactant or the like. The metal chelate compound has a polydentate or multidentate chelate ligand, in which at least one of the coordinating atoms is sulfur, coordinated to the coordination site of at least one metal species selected from among zinc, manganese, iron, molybdenum, tin and antimony. When applied onto metal surfaces, the aqueous lubricant forms effective lubricating films on the metal surfaces. The lubricating films contain sulfur as coordinating atoms and therefore, extreme pressure produces sulfur radicals through decomposition by tribo-chemical reactions. The sulfur radicals are highly reactive and react rapidly with the metal surface to produce metal sulfides with a lubricating effect.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2001Date of Patent: February 8, 2005Assignees: MEC International Corporation, Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Heijiro Ojima, Masahiko Takeuchi, Fumio Ikesue, Noritoshi Kaskimura, Fumio Kawahara, Mitsuru Tomono

Patent number: 6852679Abstract: A lubricating oil composition having less than 0.2 wt. % sulfur, less than 50 ppm chlorine, less than 50 ppm phosphorus, a NOACK volatility of 15 wt. % or less comprising an organo-molybdenum compound, an overbased calcium or magnesium salicylate, a dispersant and a supplemental antioxidant.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2002Date of Patent: February 8, 2005Assignee: Infineum International Ltd.Inventors: Rolfe J. Hartley, Malcolm Waddoups, Ricardo A. Bloch, Roger W. Glyde, Robert Robson

Publication number: 20040254081Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for delivering manganese from a lubricant source into a fuel combustion system or to the exhaust therefrom. By the present invention, manganese from the lubricant will interact with phosphorus, sulfur, and/or lead from the combustion products. In this manner, the manganese scavenges or inactivates harmful materials which have migrated into the fuel or combustion products, and which can otherwise poison catalytic converters, sensors and/or automotive on-board diagnostic devices. The present invention can also lead to improved durability of exhaust after treatment systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2004Publication date: December 16, 2004Inventors: Gregory H. Guinther, Vincent J. Gatto, Joseph W. Roos

Patent number: RE40595Abstract: There is disclosed a lubricating oil composition which contains from about 100 to 450 parts per million of molybdenum from a molybdenum compound which is substantially free of active sulfur and about 750 to 5,000 parts per million of a secondary diarylamine. This combination of ingredients provides improved oxidation control and friction modifier performance to the lubricating oil. The composition is particularly suited for use as a crankcase lubricant.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2005Date of Patent: December 2, 2008Assignee: Afton Chemical Intangibles LLCInventors: Vincent James Gatto, Mark Thomas Devlin
