Description
BRICATING COMPOSITION COMPRISING A HINDERED AMINE LIGHT STABILIZER FOR IMPROVED PISTON CLEANLINESS IN AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a lubricating
composition, in particular to a lubricating composition which is suitable for lubricating internal combustion
engines and which has improved piston cleanliness
properties .
Background of the Invention
Lubricants may be used in machinery to prevent
friction between moving parts, such as pistons and
cylinders of an engine. In some cases, deposits may form in the lubricants that may hinder the movement of the
parts and, therefore, impact the performance of the
engine. Lubricants may be configured to reduce the
likelihood of deposits and/or affect the performance of the engine.
Lubricants may include a mix of oils and other
additives. The composition of the lubricant may be
selected to define properties which can be used to
enhance performance of the machinery. For example,
various engines may specify the use of a certain
viscosity of lubricant under certain conditions, such as outdoor temperature. In another example, the composition of the lubricant (and/or its additives) may be selected to control the engine' s tendency to oxidize and form
deposits .
It would be desirable to provide a lubricating
composition having improved piston cleanliness
properties .
Hindered amines are chemical compounds containing an amine functional group surrounded by a crowded steric
environment. They have uses such as gas scrubbing, as stabilizers against light-induced polymer degradation, and as reagents for organic synthesis. Hindered amine light stabilizers are typically derivatives of 2,2,6,6- tetramethyl piperidine and are extremely efficient stabilizers against light-induced degradation of most polymers .
It has now surprisingly been found by the present inventors that hindered amine light stabilizers can be used to provide improved piston cleanliness properties of a lubricating oil composition for the crankcase of an internal combustion engine.
Summary of the Invention
According to the present invention, there is provided use of a lubricating composition comprising (i) base oil and (ii) hindered amine light stabilizer for providing improved piston cleanliness in an internal combustion engine.
According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for improving the piston cleanliness properties of a lubricating oil composition used to lubricate the crankcase of an internal combustion engine comprising adding to the lubricating oil
composition an additive amount of one or more hindered amine light stabilizers .

As new SAE J300 viscosity grades are published, with lower viscosities than the current OW-20, the present invention would also be very much applicable to these new viscosity lower grades. It is conceivable that the present invention could also be used with higher
viscosity grades.

The lubricating compositions herein may be
conveniently prepared using conventional formulation techniques by admixing base oil with the hindered amine light stabiliser and other additive components/additive package at a temperature of, for example, around 60 °C.
It has surprisingly been found that the lubricating compositions described herein containing the
abovementioned hindered amine light stabiliser provides reduced piston cleanliness, in particular as measured according to hot tube deposits test method as described in WO2014036110. In the hot tube deposits test method as
described in WO2014036110 a cleanliness merit of 10.0 represents completely clean engine pistons. The
lubricating compositions described herein comprising a base oil and a hindered amine light stabiliser preferably provide a hot tube cleanliness merit result in the hot tube deposits test method described in WO2014036110 of 8.0 or above .
The present invention is described below with reference to the following Examples, which are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way .
Examples
Lubricating formulations were prepared by top treating a reference lubricant (reference lubricant A which was a passenger car motor oil (PCMO) meeting GF-5 specification) with 3wt% of a hindered amine light stabilizer compound or a conventional antioxidant
compound. Comparative Example 1 consisted of reference lubricant A top treated with 3wt% of a conventional aminic antioxidant. Comparative Example 2 consisted of reference lubricant A top treated with 3wt% of a conventional phenolic antioxidant. Example 1 consisted of the
reference lubricant A top treated with 3wt% of decanedioic acid, 1, 10-bis (2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl) ester (commercially available from Mayzo under the tradename BLS
1770) . Example 2 consisted of reference lubricant A top treated with 3 wt% of decanedioic acid, 1, 10-bis
(1, 2, 2, 6, 6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl) ester + decanedioic acid, 1-methyl 10-1, 2, 2, 6, 6-pentamethyl-4- piperidinyl ) ester (commercially available from Mayzo under the tradename BLS 292) . Examples 1 and 2 were subjected to the hot tube deposits test method described in
WO2014036110. The results of these experiments are set
out in Table 1 below. A hot tube cleanliness merit result of 10 means completely clean. A hot tube cleanliness merit result over 8 demonstrates excellent piston cleanliness.
Table 1
Discussion
As shown in Table 1, both Examples 1 and 2 showed a hot tube cleanliness merit result of 8.1. This compared to hot tube cleanliness merit results of 7.5 and 6.9 for Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2,
respectively. These results demonstrate that lubricating compositions top treated with 3 wt% of a hindered amine light stabiliser compound demonstrate improved piston cleanliness compared with comparative compositions top treated with conventional aminic/phenolic antioxidants.
