An overbased magnesium sulfonate detergent is made by (A) preparing a mixture of a sulfonic acid or salt with a magnesium oxide, water, a C.sub.1-C.sub.5 alkanol, a hydrocarbon solvent, and a combination of a polyisobutene succinic anhydride of molecular weight (M.sub.w) 500 to 1500 g mol.sup.1 and a salicylic acid as first and second promoters; and (B) carbonating the mixture with an acidic gas to form the overbased magnesium sulfonate.

A metal detergent and a preparation method thereof and a lubricant oil containing the metal detergent. The metal detergent is sulfurized calcium alkyl phenolate, the method for preparing the metal detergent includes the following steps: a) mixing alkyl phenol, a calcium source and base oil to obtain a mixed solution; b) mixing the mixed solution, ethylene glycol and a sulfur source to carry out sulfurization reaction to obtain a sulfurization reaction solution; c) implementing carbonation reaction between the sulfurization reaction solution and CO.sub.2 to obtain a carbonation reaction solution; and d) extracting the carbonation reaction solution with a solvent, upon refining, to obtain sulfurized calcium alkyl phenolate; wherein the solvent includes solvent oil, water and oxygenous derivative of hydrocarbon. Experimental results show that the content of free alkyl phenol is below 1.5 wt % in the sulfurized calcium alkyl phenolate prepared using the preparation method provided by the present application.
