A lubricant composition includes a base lubricant and a plurality of lubricant additive molecules. Each molecule includes a surface active group attractable to a target surface, wherein the surface active group comprises a carboxyl group, a siloxyl group, an amine group, or a mixture thereof, and a carbon containing component connected to the surface active group, wherein the carbon containing component comprises a carbon ring, wherein the surface active group and the carbon containing component are adapted such that the carbon film is formed in situ on the target surface of the target machine only when tribological energy activates the lubricant additive to unravel the carbon containing component under a pressure and a temperature during operation.

Engine oil \s and methods for use in soot-producing engines. The engine oil contains a major amount of a base oil and a dispersant reaction product of A) a hydrocarbyl-dicarboxylic acid or anhydride, and B) at least one polyamine, that is post-treated with C) an aromatic carboxylic acid, an aromatic polycarboxylic acid, or an aromatic anhydride, wherein all carboxylic acid or anhydride groups of C) are attached directly to an aromatic ring. A molar ratio of carboxyl groups from components A) and C) to nitrogen atoms from component B) of from 0.9 to 1.3 is used to make the dispersant which also has a molar ratio of component C) to component B) of at least 0.4 and when component B) has an average of 4-6 nitrogen atoms per molecule, a molar ratio of A) to B) is from 1.0 to 1.6.

A sulfonate-based grease composition and method of manufacture comprising the addition of one or more glycerol derivatives. The glycerol derivative acts to optimally disperse the thickener in the grease such that the conventional step of milling the grease may not be needed. The glycerol derivative reacts with water to form in-situ complexing acids, which may replace at least some of the normally used complexing acids for reacting with calcium containing bases. The greases according to preferred embodiments have a high dropping point, improved thickener yield, and faster conversion time.

The present invention provides a lubricating oil composition not containing ZnDTP but comprising: (a) a base oil; (b) molybdenum dialkyldithiocarbamate; and (c) an organic acid metal salt compound having a metal of Group 8 of a short periodic table, copper, or bismuth as a central metal.

The present invention relates to a lubricating composition comprising: at least one base oil; at least one olefin copolymer; at least one detergent; and at least one linear hydrogenated styrene/butadiene copolymer. The invention also relates to the use of said composition for reducing fuel consumption in an engine and for enhancing the cleanliness of a 4-stroke or 2-stroke, preferably 4-stroke, marine engine or of a stationary engine.

A composition obtained by reacting an O,O-dialkyldithiophosphoric acid with a hydroxyalkyl acrylate or a hydroxyalkyl methacrylate, and reacting the product thereof with a dialkylphosphite provides good antiwear protection.

A lubricant composition includes a base lubricant and a plurality of lubricant additive molecules. Each lubricant additive molecule includes a surface active group attractable to a target surface, and a carbon containing component connected to the surface active group, for providing a carbon source to form a carbon film on the target surface. A method for in situ forming of a carbon film using the lubricant composition, includes adding the lubricant composition into a target machine such that the lubricant composition is in contact with a target surface of the target machine, and operating the target machine to cause a temperature and a pressure at the target surface so that the carbon containing component is unraveled thereon to form a carbon film on the target surface during the operation.

The present invention relates to the use of lubricants on the basis of water-soluble, high-viscosity polyethylene glycols for lubricating open gearing, which is for example used in rotary kilns and mills.
