The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions achieving piston cleanliness pursuant to CEC L-117-20 (VW TDi3) that fail to achieve desired piston cleanliness pursuant to CEC L-078-99 (VW TDi2).

The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions having a stable viscosity upon oxidization through select amounts and relationships of detergent metals and soap contents.

The invention is directed to a method for reducing low speed pre-ignition events in a spark-ignited direct injection internal combustion engine by supplying to the sump a lubricant composition which contains an oil of lubricating viscosity and a metal overbased detergent. The metal overbased detergent may be selected from sulfonate detergents, phenate detergents, and salicylate detergents, especially sulfonate detergents with a metal ratio of at least 5.

The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions and, in particular, lubricating compositions suitable for motorcycle applications including select metal dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphates to achieve low copper corrosion, good TBN retention, and good sulfur retention applicable to motorcycle engines and transmissions.

The invention provides a method of lubricating a compression-ignition internal combustion engine with a maximum laden mass over 2,700 kg comprising supplying to the engine a lubricating composition comprising: an oil of lubricating viscosity, a 300 TBN or higher alkaline earth metal sulphonate detergent having a metal ratio of 10 to 40, 0.1 wt % to 4 wt % of a borated polyisobutylene succinimide dispersant, wherein the polyisobutylene from which the borated polyisobutylene succinimide is derived has a number average molecular weight of 550 to 1150, and 0.1 wt % to 6 wt % of a polyisobutylene succinimide, wherein the polyisobutylene from which polyisobutylene succinimide is derived has a number average molecular weight of 1550 to 2500, 0 wt % to 0.2 wt % of a phenolic based detergent, wherein the total amount of soap delivered by the alkaline earth metal sulphonate (typically calcium sulphonate) is 0.4 to 1 wt % of the lubricating composition, and wherein the lubricating composition has a sulphated ash content of not more than 1.5 wt %.

The present invention relates to a Zinc free High Performance bearing oil composition for Lubrication of Bearings, Gears & Allied Equipments in Wire Rod Mill (WRM) for Steel Plants.

The present invention relates to a Zinc free High Performance bearing oil composition for Lubrication of Bearings, Gears & Allied Equipments in Wire Rod Mill (WRM) for Steel Plants.

A composition of an oil-soluble ionic detergent that does not contribute metal ions to the composition, and which comprises a quaternary non-metallic pnictogen cation and an organic anion having at least one hydrocarbyl group of sufficient length to impart oil solubility to the detergent, the detergent having a total base number (TBN) to total acid number (TAN) ratio of at least 2:1 imparts ash-free basicity to a lubricant composition.

A composition of an oil-soluble ionic detergent that does not contribute metal ions to the composition, and which comprises a quaternary non-metallic pnictogen cation and an organic anion having at least one hydrocarbyl group of sufficient length to impart oil solubility to the detergent, the detergent having a total base number (TBN) to total acid number (TAN) ratio of at least 2:1 imparts ash-free basicity to a lubricant composition.

A lubricating oil composition can include a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity and a minor amount of an alkaline earth metal phenol-based detergent. The lubricating oil composition can further have a BN of greater than 140 mg KOH/g, and further wherein the marine diesel cylinder lubricating oil composition is substantially free of unsulfurized tetrapropenyl phenol and its unsulfurized metal salt.
