  • Density is determined by ASTM D4052-96 (Reapproved 2002). The sample is introduced into an oscillating sample tube and the change in oscillating frequency caused by the cange in the mass of the tube is used in conjunction with calibration data to determine the density of the sample.
  • Weight percent olefins can be determined by proton-NMR according to the steps specified herein.

When this ratio exceeds 3, it indicates a higher percentage of tri or tetra substituted olefins being present, thus other assumptions known in the analytical art can be made to calculate the number of double bonds in the sample.

B) Acquire a normal proton spectrum of at least 12 ppm spectral width and accurately reference the chemical shift (ppm) axis, with the instrument having sufficient gain range to acquire a signal without overloading the receiver/ADC, e.g., when a 30 degree pulse is applied, the instrument having a minimum signal digitization dynamic range of 65,000. In one embodiment, the instrument has a dynamic range of at least 260,000. C) Measure the integral intensities between: 6.0-4.5 ppm (olefin); 2.2-1.9 ppm (allylic); and 1.9-0.5 ppm (saturate).

  • Identification of the individual aromatic classes in the highly saturated base oil can be made on the basis of the UV spectral pattern and the elution time.
  • the amino column used for this analysis differentiates aromatic molecules largely on the basis of their ring-number (or double-bond number). Thus, the single ring aromatic containing molecules elute first, followed by the polycyclic aromatics in order of increasing double bond number per molecule.
  • HPLC-UV Calibration can be used for identifying classes of aromatic compounds even at very low levels, e.g., multi-ring aromatics typically absorb 10 to 200 times more strongly than single-ring aromatics. Alkyl-substitution affects absorption by 20%. Integration limits for the co-eluting 1-ring and 2-ring aromatics at 272 nm can be made by the perpendicular drop method. Wavelength dependent response factors for each general aromatic class can be first determined by constructing Beer's Law plots from pure model compound mixtures based on the nearest spectral peak absorbances to the substituted aromatic analogs. Weight percent concentrations of aromatics can be calculated by assuming that the average molecular weight for each aromatic class was approximately equal to the average molecular weight for the whole base oil sample.
  • the weight percent of all molecules with at least one aromatic function in the purified mono-aromatic standard can be confirmed via long-duration carbon 13 NMR analysis.

  • Acorn PC integration software can be used to define the shape of the baseline and consistently integrate.
  • Extent of branching refers to the number of alkyl branches in hydrocarbons.
  • Branching and branching position can be determined using carbon-13 ( 13 C) NMR according to the following nine-step process: 1) Identify the CH branch centers and the CH 3 branch termination points using the DEPT Pulse sequence (Doddrell, D. T.; D. T. Pegg; M. R. Bendall, Journal of Magnetic Resonance 1982, 48, 323ff.). 2) Verify the absence of carbons initiating multiple branches (quaternary carbons) using the APT pulse sequence (Patt, S. L.; J. N. Shoolery, Journal of Magnetic Resonance 1982, 46, 535ff.).

  • the composition is used in hydraulic pumps.
  • the performance of pumps and motors is a critical factor in overall hydraulic system reliability.
  • An important role of a hydraulic pump is to transmit energy from electrical or mechanical energy into hydraulic energy, e.g. volumetric flow and pressure.
  • the hydraulic fluid composition is supplied to the fluid reservoir of the equipment to be lubricated, and thence to the moving parts of the equipment itself including but not limited to mobile as well as non-mobile equipment including but not limited to turbines, tractors, vehicles and off-highway mobile equipment.
  • Moving parts include a transmission, a hydrostatic transmission, a gear box, a drive, a hydraulic system, etc.
  • the Examples were prepared by mixing the components in the amounts indicated Table 1.
  • the formulae were subject to the piston pump test according to JCMAS HK standard specifications developed by the Fuels and Lubricants Technical Committee of Japan Construction Mechanization Association (JCMA).
  • FTBO base oils are from Chevron Corporation of San Ramon, Calif. The properties of the FTBO base oils used in the examples are shown in Table 4.
  • NexbaseTM 3060 is a colorless, catalytically hydroisomerized and dewaxed Group III base oil from Neste Oil Corporation.
  • PennzoilTM HC 575 is a Group II mineral oil from Pennzoil-Quaker State Company.
  • Additive 1 is a commercially available rust and oxidation package.
  • Additive 2 is a triaryl phosphate ashless antiwear and extreme pressure additive.
  • Additive 3 is an amine phosphate an ashless multifunctional additive with extreme pressure/antiwear and antirust activity, typically containing 4.9% phosphorus and 2.7% nitrogen.
  • Additive 4 is a tolutriazole derivative metal deactivator.
  • Additive 5 is a commercially available sorbitan monooleate.
  • Additive 6 is a polyalkyl methacrylate (C11-C20).
  • Additive 7 is a low molecular weight organic acrylic polymer.
  • Formula B (used in Examples B1-B9) is superior to Formula A containing the Group II/III base oil of the prior art (used in Examples A1-B9).
  • Formula B results in a lower amount of deposits formed, superior results in the rotary pressure vessel oxidation test (RPVOT of 1112 vs. 578), total acid number (TAN of 0.17 mg KOH/g vs. 0.45 mg KOH/g), superior air release (air release of 0 vs. 6 min. at 50° C.) and low foaming tendency (foam sequence of 0 ml at 0/10 min.).
  • FIG. 1 compares the change in the fluid kinematic viscosity at 40° C. over time (test periods of 0-1000 hours), between Formula A which contains the base oils Group II/III of the prior art, and Formula B which is an embodiment of the hydraulic fluid of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 compares the change in the total acid number over time between Formulae A and B.
  • Formula B shows excellent stability with minor changes/variations in the fluid viscosity at 40° C. and in the total acid number as a function of time as compared in the more dramatic variations in the formulation of the prior art.
