[Background Art] In recent years, electrical components for automobiles and their auxiliary equipment have been improved to become smaller and lighter, and demand for luxury products has also increased, making it necessary to improve quietness when using these components. As a result, the interior of the engine room tends to be sealed. As a result, the inside of the engine room has become even hotter, and the electrical components and auxiliary equipment used there have become increasingly required to withstand high temperatures.

The bearings used in the above-described automotive electrical components and auxiliary equipment are sealed bearings filled with grease, and the lifespan of such bearings is determined by the durability of the grease. For this reason, it became necessary to develop a grease with higher temperature and longer life, but conventionally widely used greases that use metallic soap as a thickener, i.e., a combination of thickener and base oil, are based on polyurea and mineral oil. , polyurea-ester-based, or polyurea-poly-α-olefin-based greases have a problem in that they do not extend bearing life in terms of oxidation stability, thermal stability, and volatility.

No. 97) is also known, but the consistency of the grease is excessive, and sufficiently satisfactory results cannot be obtained in terms of liquefaction temperature (dropping point) and high-temperature durability in actual machine tests. Therefore, such conventional greases have not been fully satisfactory as greases for bearings that rotate at high speeds under high temperature conditions.

Next, the diurea compound represented by the formula (1) used as a thickener in the present invention is obtained by the reaction of a diisocyanate and a monoamine, and after the reaction, the diurea compound represented by R1 in the formula (1) is Examples include aromatic isocyanates such as 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and tolylene diisocyanate.

Examples of monoamines include aniline, cyclohexylamine, stearylamine, cetylamine, and laurylamine. The amount of such a diurea compound added to the base oil is 2 to 40% by weight. This is because grease obtained by adding a small amount of diurea compound, less than 2% by weight, becomes a liquid with poor viscosity;
This is because if the amount exceeds 100%, it becomes solid and the properties of the grease for sealing in a bearing are unsuitable.

Also,
As a thickener added to such base oils, diurea compounds are used, which have better thermal stability, oxidation stability, and adhesion than metal soaps such as lithium soap and sodium soap, so they are heat resistant. , it has a long life at high temperatures.
