The disclosed technology relates to a lubricant composition for use in an automatic transmission of a hybrid electric vehicle, containing an oil of lubricating viscosity, at least one borate ester, and at least one phosphorus containing compound.

The present invention generally relates to compositions for use in lubricating oils. In certain aspects, the present invention is generally directed to boroxine compounds having alkyl groups where one or more of the alkyl groups contains at least 8 carbon atoms. Such compounds may present improved hydrolytic stability, compared to other boroxine compounds. Such boroxine compounds may be used, for example, to improve seal compatibility in an engine. Other aspects of the invention are generally directed to systems and methods for making such boroxine compounds, engine oils containing such boroxine compounds, methods of using such boroxine compounds, or the like.

The invention concerns additive compositions obtained by mixing at least two thermoassociative and exchangeable compounds and at least one boronic ester compound that enables the association of these two copolymers to be controlled; a lubricating composition obtained by mixing at least one lubricating base oil, at least two thermoassociative and exchangeable compounds, and at least one boronic ester compound that enables the association of these two copolymers to be controlled; a method for adjusting the viscosity of a lubricating composition obtained by mixing at least one lubricating base oil and at least two thermoassociative and exchangeable compounds; and the use of a boronic ester compound to adjust the viscosity of a lubricating composition.

Compositions resulting from the mixing of at least one copolymer A1, resulting from the copolymerization of at least one monomer functionalized by diol functions with at least one styrenic monomer, and at least one compound A2 comprising at least two boronic ester functions. They have very varied rheological properties depending on the proportion of compounds A1 and A2 used. Composition resulting from the mixing of at least one lubricating oil with such a composition of associative and exchangeable polymers and use of this composition for lubricating a mechanical part.

A phosphate complex of a borate ester provides wear- and friction-reducing performance to an engine or driveline device. The complex may be a pyroborate-hydrocarbyl-substituted phosphate adduct. Boric acid may be reacted with a diol to form an ester, then reacting said ester with an ammonium salt of phosphoric acid or a hydrocarbyl-substituted phosphoric acid.

A lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engines is disclosed. The composition exhibits a lower coefficient of friction and improved cleaning properties without causing a deterioration in thermal and oxidation stability.

A lubricant composition includes a base oil and an additive package. The additive package includes a seal compatibility additive chosen from a halide seal compatibility additive, an epoxide seal compatibility additive, a boroxine seal compatibility additive, a sulfonate ester seal compatibility additive, and combinations thereof. The alkoxylated amide and the ester are set forth in general formulas A and B, respectively: In general formulas A and B, each R.sup.13, R.sup.II, R.sup.III, and R.sup.IV, is, independently, a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, hydrocarbyl group. In addition, at least one of R.sup.II and R.sup.III include an alkoxy group, and R.sup.IV includes an amine group.
