Definitions

  • the present invention is applicable to the field of lubricants. More particularly, the present invention relates to a lubricating composition comprising at least one amino compound.
  • the lubricant composition according to the invention simultaneously has good anti-wear properties, fuel economy and good antioxidant properties.
  • the present invention also relates to a process using this composition.
  • the present invention also relates to a method for reducing the fuel consumption of a vehicle employing this lubricating composition.
  • the present invention also relates to a method for reducing the oxidation of a lubricating composition by adding an amino compound in this composition.
  • the present invention also relates to the use of an amine compound as a friction modifier in a lubricating composition.
  • the present invention also relates to the use of an amino compound as an antioxidant in a lubricating composition.
  • Lubricating compositions and more particularly engine lubricating compositions, are known to include various types of additives, making it possible to provide the composition with particular properties.
  • antioxidants are commonly used. Indeed, in the presence of air and heat, a lubricating composition can react to form acids or other oxygenated compounds. The antioxidant is then added to the lubricant composition to reduce or block the formation or propagation of intermediate compounds, such as radicals or peroxides, thereby reducing or even blocking the oxidation of the composition.
  • antioxidant agents commonly used in the field of lubricants are chosen from zinc dithiophosphates, phenolic compounds, aromatic amines, these compounds may be used alone or as a mixture.
  • zinc thiophosphates are metal-bearing and include sulfur, which is not desirable in low-rate lubricants.
  • sulfated ash, low phosphorus and low sulfur content commonly referred to as "low saps" lubricants.
  • phenolic compounds could be limited in the lubricating compositions, because of the potential risks of these compounds on human health, in particular by their toxicity, persistence and bioaccumulation by the body.
  • the improvement of the energetic performances of the lubricating compositions can be obtained in particular by mixing in base oils specific additives such as friction modifiers.
  • organometallic compounds comprising molybdenum, such as molybdenum dithiocarbamates, are commonly used.
  • molybdenum dithiocarbamates In order to obtain good anti-friction properties, a sufficient quantity of molybdenum must be present within the lubricating composition.
  • these compounds have the disadvantage of inducing sediment formation when the lubricating composition has too much molybdenum content.
  • the poor solubility of some of these compounds modifies or even deteriorates the properties of the lubricant composition, in particular its viscosity.
  • too much or not enough viscous composition hinders the movement of moving parts, the good start of an engine, the protection of an engine when it has reached its operating temperature, and therefore ultimately causes an increase in fuel consumption.
  • these molybdenum dithiocarbamates contribute to increasing the ash content, reducing their potential for use in a lubricant composition, especially in Europe.
  • Various technical solutions to replace molybdenum compounds have been described.
  • US 4,505,835 discloses a lubricating composition comprising an amine compound as a friction modifier.
  • this amino compound is defined by a specific chemical structure comprising an ammonium function.
  • the compounds comprising an ammonium function when they are added to a lubricating composition, present a potential risk of thickening of the composition, thus possibly altering the lubricating properties of the composition.
  • antioxidants and friction modifiers in a lubricating composition does not necessarily ensure satisfactory anti-oxidant and anti-wear properties, as these compounds can potentially neutralize.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a compound, as well as a lubricating composition comprising said compound, overcoming all or in part the aforementioned disadvantages.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a lubricant composition whose formulation is easy to implement.

Description

Composition lubrifiante à base de composés aminés  Lubricating composition based on amino compounds
La présente invention est applicable au domaine des lubrifiants. Plus particulièrement, la présente invention concerne une composition lubrifiante comprenant au moins un composé aminé. La composition lubrifiante selon l'invention présente simultanément de bonnes propriétés anti-usure, d'économie de carburant ainsi que de bonnes propriétés anti-oxydantes. The present invention is applicable to the field of lubricants. More particularly, the present invention relates to a lubricating composition comprising at least one amino compound. The lubricant composition according to the invention simultaneously has good anti-wear properties, fuel economy and good antioxidant properties.
La présente invention concerne également un procédé mettant en œuvre cette composition.  The present invention also relates to a process using this composition.
La présente invention concerne également un procédé pour réduire la consommation de carburant d'un véhicule mettant en œuvre cette composition lubrifiante. The present invention also relates to a method for reducing the fuel consumption of a vehicle employing this lubricating composition.
La présente invention concerne également un procédé pour réduire l'oxydation d'une composition lubrifiante par ajout d'un composé aminé dans cette composition. La présente invention concerne également l'utilisation d'un composé aminé comme modificateur de frottement dans une composition lubrifiante.  The present invention also relates to a method for reducing the oxidation of a lubricating composition by adding an amino compound in this composition. The present invention also relates to the use of an amine compound as a friction modifier in a lubricating composition.
La présente invention concerne également l'utilisation d'un composé aminé comme agent anti-oxydant dans une composition lubrifiante. Les compositions lubrifiantes, et plus particulièrement les compositions lubrifiantes pour moteur, sont connues comme pouvant comprendre différents types d'additifs, permettant d'apporter à la composition des propriétés particulières. The present invention also relates to the use of an amino compound as an antioxidant in a lubricating composition. Lubricating compositions, and more particularly engine lubricating compositions, are known to include various types of additives, making it possible to provide the composition with particular properties.
Parmi ces additifs, les agents anti-oxydants sont couramment utilisés. En effet, en présence d'air et de chaleur, une composition lubrifiante peut réagir pour former des acides ou autres composés oxygénés. L'agent anti-oxydant est alors ajouté dans la composition lubrifiante pour réduire voire bloquer la formation ou la propagation des composés intermédiaires, tels que les radicaux ou les peroxydes, ceci permettant de réduire voire de bloquer l'oxydation de la composition. Among these additives, antioxidants are commonly used. Indeed, in the presence of air and heat, a lubricating composition can react to form acids or other oxygenated compounds. The antioxidant is then added to the lubricant composition to reduce or block the formation or propagation of intermediate compounds, such as radicals or peroxides, thereby reducing or even blocking the oxidation of the composition.
Les agents anti-oxydants couramment utilisés dans le domaine des lubrifiants sont choisis parmi les dithiophosphates de zinc, les composés phénoliques, les aminés aromatiques, ces composés pouvant être utilisés seuls ou en mélange.  The antioxidant agents commonly used in the field of lubricants are chosen from zinc dithiophosphates, phenolic compounds, aromatic amines, these compounds may be used alone or as a mixture.
Toutefois, ils peuvent présenter certains inconvénients. En effet, l'inconvénient majeur des thiophosphates de zinc est qu'ils sont porteurs de métaux et comprennent du soufre, ce qui n'est pas souhaitable dans des lubrifiants à bas taux de cendres sulfatées, bas taux de phosphore et à bas taux de soufre, communément appelés lubrifiants "low saps". However, they may have some disadvantages. Indeed, the major disadvantage of zinc thiophosphates is that they are metal-bearing and include sulfur, which is not desirable in low-rate lubricants. sulfated ash, low phosphorus and low sulfur content, commonly referred to as "low saps" lubricants.
Par ailleurs, l'utilisation de composés phénoliques pourrait être limitée dans les compositions lubrifiantes, du fait des risques potentiels de ces composés sur la santé humaine, notamment par leur toxicité, persistance et bioaccumulation par l'organisme.  Moreover, the use of phenolic compounds could be limited in the lubricating compositions, because of the potential risks of these compounds on human health, in particular by their toxicity, persistence and bioaccumulation by the body.
Quant aux aminés aromatiques, leur efficacité anti-oxydante est reconnue pour une utilisation à froid d'une composition lubrifiante, réduisant ainsi leur intérêt dans des conditions de température élevées correspondant aux conditions de fonctionnement d'un moteur.  As for aromatic amines, their antioxidant effectiveness is recognized for cold use of a lubricating composition, thus reducing their interest in high temperature conditions corresponding to the operating conditions of an engine.
Par ailleurs, suite à l'établissement du protocole de Kyoto, de nouvelles normes protégeant l'environnement imposent à la filière de l'automobile de construire des véhicules dont les émissions polluantes et les consommations de carburant sont réduites. Il en résulte que les moteurs de ces véhicules sont soumis à des contraintes techniques de plus en plus sévères : ils tournent notamment plus vite, à des températures de plus en plus élevées et doivent consommer de moins en moins de carburant.  In addition, following the establishment of the Kyoto Protocol, new environmental protection standards require the automotive sector to build vehicles with reduced emissions and reduced fuel consumption. As a result, the engines of these vehicles are subject to increasingly stringent technical constraints: they turn in particular faster, at higher and higher temperatures and must consume less and less fuel.
La nature des lubrifiants moteurs pour automobiles a une influence sur l'émission de polluants et sur la consommation de carburant. Des lubrifiants moteurs pour automobiles dits économiseurs d'énergie ou « fuel-eco » (en terminologie anglo- saxonne), ont été développés pour satisfaire ces nouveaux besoins.  The nature of automotive lubricants has an influence on pollutant emissions and fuel consumption. Engine lubricants for automobiles called energy saving or "fuel-eco" (in English terminology), have been developed to meet these new needs.
L'amélioration des performances énergétiques des compositions lubrifiantes peut être obtenue notamment en mélangeant dans des huiles de base des additifs spécifiques tels que des modificateurs de frottement. The improvement of the energetic performances of the lubricating compositions can be obtained in particular by mixing in base oils specific additives such as friction modifiers.
Parmi les modificateurs de frottement, les composés organométalliques comprenant du molybdène, tels que les dithiocarbamates de molybdène, sont couramment utilisés. Afin d'obtenir de bonnes propriétés anti-frottement, une quantité suffisante de molybdène doit être présente au sein de la composition lubrifiante. Cependant, ces composés présentent l'inconvénient d'induire la formation de sédiments lorsque la composition lubrifiante présente une trop forte teneur en élément molybdène. La mauvaise solubilité de certains de ces composés modifie voire détériore les propriétés de la composition lubrifiante, notamment sa viscosité. Or, une composition trop ou pas assez visqueuse nuit au mouvement des pièces mobiles, au bon démarrage d'un moteur, à la protection d'un moteur lorsqu'il a atteint sa température de service, et donc in fine provoque notamment une augmentation de consommation de carburant. De plus, ces dithiocarbamates de molybdène contribuent à augmenter le taux de cendre, réduisant leur potentiel d'utilisation dans une composition lubrifiante, notamment en Europe. Différentes solutions techniques pour remplacer les composés à base de molybdène ont été décrites. Among the friction modifiers, organometallic compounds comprising molybdenum, such as molybdenum dithiocarbamates, are commonly used. In order to obtain good anti-friction properties, a sufficient quantity of molybdenum must be present within the lubricating composition. However, these compounds have the disadvantage of inducing sediment formation when the lubricating composition has too much molybdenum content. The poor solubility of some of these compounds modifies or even deteriorates the properties of the lubricant composition, in particular its viscosity. However, too much or not enough viscous composition hinders the movement of moving parts, the good start of an engine, the protection of an engine when it has reached its operating temperature, and therefore ultimately causes an increase in fuel consumption. In addition, these molybdenum dithiocarbamates contribute to increasing the ash content, reducing their potential for use in a lubricant composition, especially in Europe. Various technical solutions to replace molybdenum compounds have been described.
Le document US 4 505 835 décrit une composition lubrifiante comprenant un composé aminé en tant que modificateur de frottement. Toutefois, ce composé aminé est défini par une structure chimique spécifique comprenant une fonction ammonium. Or, les composés comprenant une fonction ammonium, lorsqu'ils sont ajoutés à une composition lubrifiante, présentent un risque potentiel d'épaississement de la composition, pouvant ainsi altérer les propriétés de lubrification de la composition.  US 4,505,835 discloses a lubricating composition comprising an amine compound as a friction modifier. However, this amino compound is defined by a specific chemical structure comprising an ammonium function. However, the compounds comprising an ammonium function, when they are added to a lubricating composition, present a potential risk of thickening of the composition, thus possibly altering the lubricating properties of the composition.
Par ailleurs, aucune indication n'est donnée dans ce document quant à l'existence de propriétés anti-oxydantes de ce composé. De plus, ce document enseigne plus particulièrement l'application de la composition lubrifiante dans le domaine des lubrifiants marins.  Furthermore, no indication is given in this document as to the existence of antioxidant properties of this compound. In addition, this document teaches more particularly the application of the lubricant composition in the field of marine lubricants.
Par ailleurs, la combinaison d'agents anti-oxydants et de modificateurs de frottement dans une composition lubrifiante ne garantit pas nécessairement d'obtenir des propriétés anti-oxydantes et anti-usures satisfaisantes, du fait que ces composés peuvent potentiellement se neutraliser. Furthermore, the combination of antioxidants and friction modifiers in a lubricating composition does not necessarily ensure satisfactory anti-oxidant and anti-wear properties, as these compounds can potentially neutralize.
Les exigences de formulation et d'économie de carburant étant grandissantes, il existe donc toujours un besoin de rechercher de nouveaux composés polyfonctionnels, présentant à la fois des propriétés anti-oxydantes et de modificateur de frottement, qui, une fois formulés dans une composition lubrifiante, ne la déstabilisent pas et permettent d'obtenir simultanément des propriétés de résistance à l'oxydation et d'économies de carburant améliorées.  Formulation and fuel economy requirements are growing, so there is still a need to search for new polyfunctional compounds, having both antioxidant and friction modifier properties, which, once formulated in a lubricant composition , do not destabilize it and make it possible simultaneously to obtain oxidation resistance properties and improved fuel economy.
Un objectif de la présente invention est de fournir un composé, ainsi qu'une composition lubrifiante comprenant ledit composé, palliant tout ou en partie aux inconvénients précités. An object of the present invention is to provide a compound, as well as a lubricating composition comprising said compound, overcoming all or in part the aforementioned disadvantages.
Un autre objectif de l'invention est de fournir une composition lubrifiante dont la formulation est facile à mettre en œuvre.  Another object of the invention is to provide a lubricant composition whose formulation is easy to implement.
Un autre objectif de l'invention est de fournir une composition lubrifiante présentant des propriétés anti-oxydantes lors d'une utilisation à froid et à chaud. Un autre objectif de la présente invention est de fournir un procédé de lubrification permettant des économies d'énergie. Another object of the invention is to provide a lubricating composition having antioxidant properties during cold and hot use. Another object of the present invention is to provide a lubrication method for saving energy.
L'invention a ainsi pour objet une composition lubrifiante comprenant au moins une huile de base et au moins un composé aminé de formule (I)  The subject of the invention is thus a lubricating composition comprising at least one base oil and at least one amine compound of formula (I)

However, this document does not mention the use of a compound of formula (I) in a base oil for the formulation of lubricating composition.

US3687852A discloses the use of aspartic acid derivatives (a compound other than the compounds of formula (I)) in a lubricant composition to improve its lubricity properties.
De manière surprenante, la demanderesse a constaté que la présence d'un composé aminé de formule (I) dans une composition lubrifiante permet de conférer de bonnes propriétés anti-oxydantes à la composition, ainsi que de bonnes propriétés anti-frottement, et ainsi de bonnes propriétés d'économie de carburant.

Autres additifs Other additives
Selon un mode de réalisation, la composition lubrifiante selon l'invention peut en outre comprendre au moins un additif supplémentaire. L'additif supplémentaire peut être choisi parmi le groupe formé par les additifs anti-usure, les additifs extrême pression, les antioxydants différents du composé aminé de formule (I), les modificateurs de frottement différents du composé aminé de formule (I), les détergents surbasés ou non, les polymères améliorant l'indice de viscosité, les améliorants de point d'écoulement, les dispersants, les anti-mousse, les épaississants et leurs mélanges. Le ou les additifs peuvent être introduits isolément et/ou inclus dans des paquets d'additifs. L'ajout du ou des additifs choisis dépendent de l'utilisation de la composition lubrifiante. Ces additifs et leur emploi en fonction de la finalité de la composition lubrifiante sont bien connus de l'homme du métier. According to one embodiment, the lubricant composition according to the invention may further comprise at least one additional additive. The additional additive may be chosen from the group formed by the anti-wear additives, the extreme pressure additives, the various antioxidants of the amine compound of formula (I), the different friction modifiers of the amine compound of formula (I), the overbased or non-overbased detergents, viscosity index improvers, pour point improvers, dispersants, defoamers, thickeners and mixtures thereof. The additive (s) may be introduced in isolation and / or included in packages of additives. The addition of the selected additive (s) depends on the use of the lubricating composition. These additives and their use depending on the purpose of the lubricant composition are well known to those skilled in the art.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le ou les additifs sont adaptés à une utilisation comme huile moteur. In one embodiment of the invention, the additive (s) are suitable for use as a motor oil.
Dans un mode de réalisation, la composition lubrifiante peut comprendre en outre au moins un additif anti-usure, au moins un additif extrême pression ou leur mélange. Les additifs anti-usure et extrême pression protègent les surfaces en frottement par formation d'un film protecteur adsorbé sur ces surfaces. Il existe une grande variété d'additifs anti-usure, mais la catégorie la plus utilisée dans les compositions lubrifiantes, notamment pour huile moteur, est celle des additifs phosphosoufrés comme les alkylthiophosphates métalliques, en particulier les alkylthiophosphates de zinc, et plus spécifiquement les dialkyldithiophosphates de zinc ou ZnDTP. Les composés préférés sont de formule Zn((SP(S)(OR4)(OR5))2, où R4 et R5, identiques ou différents, représentent indépendamment un groupement alkyle, comportant préférentiellement de 1 à 18 atomes de carbone. Les phosphates d'amines sont également des additifs anti-usure qui peuvent être employés dans les compositions lubrifiantes selon l'invention. Toutefois, le phosphore apporté par ces additifs agit comme poison des systèmes catalytiques des automobiles car ces additifs sont générateurs de cendres. On peut minimiser ces effets en substituant partiellement les phosphates d'amines par des additifs n'apportant pas de phosphore, tels que, par exemple, les polysulfures, notamment les oléfines soufrées. In one embodiment, the lubricating composition may further comprise at least one anti-wear additive, at least one extreme pressure additive or their mixture. The anti-wear and extreme pressure additives protect the friction surfaces by forming a protective film adsorbed on these surfaces. There exists a a wide variety of anti-wear additives, but the most used category in lubricating compositions, especially for motor oil, is that of phosphosulfur additives such as metal alkylthiophosphates, in particular zinc alkylthiophosphates, and more specifically zinc dialkyldithiophosphates or ZnDTP. The preferred compounds have the formula Zn ((SP (S) (OR 4 ) (OR 5 )) 2, in which R 4 and R 5 , which may be identical or different, independently represent an alkyl group, preferably containing from 1 to 18 carbon atoms. The amine phosphates are also anti-wear additives which can be used in the lubricating compositions according to the invention However, the phosphorus provided by these additives acts as a poison for the catalytic systems of automobiles because these additives are ash generators. These effects can be minimized by partially substituting amine phosphates with non-phosphorus additives, such as, for example, polysulfides, especially sulfur-containing olefins.
Dans un mode de réalisation, notamment pour une application moteur, les additifs anti-usure et extrême-pression peuvent être présents dans l'huile moteur à des teneurs allant de 0,01 à 6 % en masse, préférentiellement de 0,05 et 4%, préférentiellement de 0,1 % à 2% par rapport à la masse totale de l'huile moteur. Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la composition lubrifiante peut comprendre, en outre, au moins un modificateur de frottement supplémentaire différent du composé aminé de formule (I). L'additif modificateur de frottement supplémentaire peut être un composé apportant des éléments métalliques ou bien un composé sans cendres. Parmi les composés apportant des éléments métalliques, on peut citer les complexes de métaux de transition tels que Mo, Sb, Sn, Fe, Cu, Zn, dont les ligands peuvent être des composés hydrocarbonés contenant des atomes d'oxygène, azote, soufre ou phosphore. Les modificateurs de frottement sans cendres sont d'origine organique et peuvent être choisis parmi les monoesters d'acides gras et de polyols, les aminés alcoxylées, les aminés alcoxylées grasses, les époxydes gras, les époxydes gras de borate; les aminés grasses ou les esters de glycérol d'acide gras. Par « gras » ou « grasse(s) » on entend au sens de la présente invention un groupement hydrocarboné comprenant de 10 à 24 atomes de carbone. In one embodiment, in particular for a motor application, the anti-wear and extreme-pressure additives may be present in the motor oil at contents ranging from 0.01 to 6% by weight, preferably from 0.05 to 4%. %, preferably from 0.1% to 2% relative to the total mass of the engine oil.

Ainsi, sur la base des résultats ci-dessus, il peut être raisonnablement envisagé qu'une composition lubrifiante selon l'invention pourrait permettre d'obtenir des gains de consommation de carburant au moins équivalents, voire supérieurs à ceux obtenus avec une composition lubrifiante comprenant un modificateur de frottement usuel, notamment pour une utilisation à froid d'un véhicule. Thus, on the basis of the above results, it can be reasonably envisaged that a lubricating composition according to the invention could make it possible to obtain fuel consumption gains at least equivalent to or even greater than those obtained with a lubricant composition comprising a conventional friction modifier, especially for a cold use of a vehicle.
