Modification of Fats and Oils for Fuel and Lubricating Applications
A bio-organic composition includes residues of a fatty acid glyceride-containing composition, residues of a first epoxide or glycol, and the residues of a second epoxide. The fatty acid glyceride-containing composition is characterized by the viscosity at room temperature. The first epoxide or glycol and second epoxides are present in a sufficient amount that the room temperature viscosity of the bio-organic composition is lower than the room temperature viscosity of the vegetable oil prior to formulation and/or the first epoxide or glycol and second epoxides are present in a sufficient amount that the pour point of the bio-organic composition is lower than the pour point of the fatty acid glyceride-containing composition prior to formulation.
Lubricating oil compositions
This invention relates to a lubricating oil composition comprising or resulting from the admixing of: a) 50 to 99 mass % of one or more base oils; b) 0.1 to 15 mass % of one or more functionalized olefin copolymer having an Mn of from 10,000 to 35,000 g/mol; c) 0.1 to 20 mass % of one or more detergents wherein the detergent comprises at least one calcium detergent having a TBN of more than 100 mg KOH/g; at least one calcium detergent having a TBN of 100 mg KOH/g or less; and at least one magnesium detergent, where the difference in the TBN's for the Ca detergents is at least 100 mg KOH/g; d) 0.01 to 40 mass % of one or more dispersants wherein the dispersants comprise at least one borated dispersant and at least one non borated dispersant; e) 0.01 to 20 of mass % sulfurized fatty acid ester; f) 0.01 to 5 mass % of one or more amine or phenol based antioxidants; and g) 0.001 to 15 mass % of molybdenum containing compound, where the lubricating oil composition has: 1) a sulfated ash content of 0.9 mass % or less; 2) a Mack T-11 final soot %@15 cSt of 6.7% or more; 3) a total base number of 5 to 30 mg KOH/g; 4) HTCBT of copper level increase of 20 ppm or less; 5) T-13 IR peak EOT of 40 abs/cm or less; and 6) Cam wear outlet of 45 m or less.
Fuel composition comprising detergent and quaternary ammonium salt additive
A method of reducing deposits in a diesel engine, the method comprising combusting in the engine a diesel fuel composition comprising a detergent additive which is not a quaternary ammonium salt or a Mannich reaction product; and a quaternary ammonium salt additive comprising the reaction product of nitrogen containing species having at least one tertiary amine group and a quaternizing agent; wherein the nitrogen containing species is selected from: (i) the reaction product of a hydrocarbyl-substituted acylating agent and a compound comprising at least one tertiary amine group and a primary amine, secondary amine or alcohol group; (ii) a Mannich reaction product comprising a tertiary amine group; and (v) a polyalkylene substituted amine having at least one tertiary amine group.
