Description

内燃機関用潤滑油組成物Lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engine
 本発明は、内燃機関用潤滑油組成物に関する。詳細には、省燃費性能に優れた内燃機関用潤滑油組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engines. More particularly, it relates to a lubricating oil composition for internal combustion engines which is excellent in fuel saving performance.
 内燃機関は最近のCO排出量規制などの環境対策のため、さらに省燃費性能を向上させることが求められている。
 潤滑油による燃費改善には、使用粘度の低減による粘性抵抗を下げることが行われてきた(例えば、特許文献1を参照。)。しかし内燃機関の潤滑には必要な粘度が存在し、おのずと限界がある。また内燃機関油はバルブの駆動などの油圧源としても使用されており、油圧の維持には一定の粘度が必要である。このため、低粘度化にも限界があった。これを打開するため、内燃機関のヒートマネージメントが導入されつつある。例えば、内燃機関の使用目的や使用条件により内燃機関油の最高使用温度を低くすることや、内燃機関ポンプの改良によりポンプに必要な油圧を小さくすることで、必要粘度をさらに低減することが可能となる。これにより一段の省燃費化を図ることができる。
Due to recent environmental measures such as CO2 emission regulations, internal combustion engines are required to further improve fuel efficiency.
In order to improve fuel efficiency with lubricating oil, viscous resistance has been lowered by reducing the viscosity used (see, for example, Patent Document 1). However, lubrication of an internal combustion engine has a necessary viscosity, and naturally there is a limit. Internal combustion engine oil is also used as a hydraulic source for driving valves, etc., and a certain viscosity is required to maintain the hydraulic pressure. For this reason, there is a limit to lowering the viscosity. To overcome this problem, heat management of internal combustion engines is being introduced. For example, it is possible to further reduce the necessary viscosity by lowering the maximum operating temperature of the internal combustion engine oil according to the purpose and conditions of use of the internal combustion engine, and by reducing the hydraulic pressure required for the pump by improving the internal combustion engine pump. becomes. As a result, fuel consumption can be further reduced.

When the kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of the lubricating oil composition is 30 mm 2 /s or less, sufficient fuel saving performance can be obtained. In addition, when the kinematic viscosity of the lubricating oil composition at 40° C. is 10 mm 2 /s or more, it is possible to ensure the formation of an oil film at the lubricated portion and to reduce the evaporation loss of the lubricating oil composition.
As used herein, "kinematic viscosity at 40°C" means kinematic viscosity at 40°C measured according to ASTM D-445.
 本発明の潤滑油組成物の100℃における動粘度は、好ましくは3mm/s以上、より好ましくは4mm/s以上である。上限は、好ましくは7mm/s以下、より好ましくは6mm/s以下である。具体的な範囲としては、好ましくは3mm/s以上7mm/s以下、より好ましくは4mm/s以上6mm/s以下である。 The kinematic viscosity at 100° C. of the lubricating oil composition of the present invention is preferably 3 mm 2 /s or more, more preferably 4 mm 2 /s or more.

A specific range is preferably 3 mm 2 /s or more and 7 mm 2 /s or less, more preferably 4 mm 2 /s or more and 6 mm 2 /s or less.
 本発明の潤滑油組成物の15℃における密度(ρ15)は、好ましくは0.860以下、より好ましくは0.850以下である。なお、本明細書において15℃における密度とは、JIS K 2249-1995に準拠して15℃において測定された密度を意味する。 The density (ρ15) at 15°C of the lubricating oil composition of the present invention is preferably 0.860 or less, more preferably 0.850 or less.

For each test lubricating oil composition, the torque required to rotate the output shaft of the DOHC engine (displacement 1.2 L) lubricated with the lubricating oil composition (oil temperature 80 ° C.) at a constant speed with an electric motor was measured. Measurements were performed at 1000 rpm, 2000 rpm, and 3000 rpm, and the torque reduction rate with respect to the measured value in Comparative Example 1 was calculated.
