The invention is directed to a zinc-free lubricating composition for an internal combustion engine containing a phosphorus anti-wear agent, an ashless antioxidant, and a metal-free basic detergent. The lubricating composition provides wear protection, deposit control, and improved acid control with reduced levels of metal-containing additives.

The invention relates to the use of at least one phosphorus compound, which is free of sulfur and has no amine function, as an anti-wear and extreme-pressure additive in a lubricant composition for a propulsion system of an electric or hybrid vehicle. The invention also relates to the use of a lubricant composition comprising at least one phosphorus compound, which is free of sulfur and has no amine function, as an anti-wear and extreme-pressure additive, for lubricating and optionally cooling a propulsion system of an electric or hybrid vehicle, in particular for lubricating and cooling the electric motor and the power electronics of an electric or hybrid vehicle.

A refrigerating oil comprising a lubricating base oil, a first extreme pressure agent containing sulfur and phosphorus as constituent elements and a second extreme pressure agent containing phosphorus but not containing sulfur as constituent elements, and having a kinematic viscosity at 100° C. of 0.5 mm.sup.2/s or more and 2.5 mm.sup.2/s or less.

Provided is a grease composition which contains (A) a mixed base oil containing (A1) a low-viscosity base oil having a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 10 to 50 mm.sup.2/s and (A2) a high-viscosity base oil having a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 200 to 700 mm.sup.2/s, (B) a lithium-based thickener and (C) a polymer having a kinematic viscosity at 100° C. of 1,000 to 100,000 mm.sup.2/s, and has an apparent viscosity at −10° C., as measured according to JIS K2220:2013 and at a shear rate of 10 s.sup.−1, of 50 to 250 mPa.Math.s. The grease composition is excellent in pumpability and is also excellent in wear resistance under poor lubrication conditions.

A lubricant additive composition and lubricant composition are provided that include one or more friction modifier compounds and antiwear compounds. Methods of lubricating moving metal surfaces of a machine are also provided.
