Lubricant overbased detergent-dispersants with improved solubility

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5195724
This patent describes a lubricating composition comprising a major amount of a lubricating oil composition and a minor amount of an over-based detergent-dispersant lubricant additive, in an amount of from about 0.5% to about 15% by weight of the total weight of the lubricating oil composition. The additive comprises a reaction product of an alkaline earth metal phenate, and an ammonium alkylbenzene sulfonate. The phenate and the sulfonate are reacted in the presence of an alcohol to 1 to 4 carbon atoms, at a temperature of from about 25/sup 0/C to about 90/sup 0/C and pressure of from about 0.5 to about 7 atmospheres. The reaction product is stripped at a temperature of from about 100/sup 0/C to about 200/sup 0/C and pressure of from about 0.1 to about 1 atmosphere, to remove ammonia water and the alcohol.
