Abstract
Compositions are obtained by mixing at least one oligomer A1, which is obtained by copolymerizing at least two monomers functionalized by diol functions with at least one second monomer, with at least one compound A2 having at least two boron ester functions. The compositions exhibit very varied rheological properties depending on the proportion of the compounds A1 and A2 used. A composition is also obtained by mixing at least one lubricating oil with such a composition of associative and exchangeable polymers, and the use of this composition to lubricate a mechanical part.
Claims20
A composition resulting from the mixing of at least
- a polydiol oligomer A1 with a number-average molar mass of greater than or equal to 600 g/mol and less than 10,000 g/mol, comprising repeating units corresponding to:
- at least two monomers M1,
- and
- more than 50 mol % of repeating units corresponding to one or more monomers M3, and
- optionally at least one monomer M2,
- and
- a compound A2 comprising at least two boronic ester functions,
- the monomer M1 corresponding to the general formula (I):
- in which:
- R1 is chosen from the group formed by —H, —CH3 and —CH2—CH3;
- x is an integer ranging from 1 to 18;
- y is an integer equal to 0 or 1;
- X1 and X2, which may be identical or different, are chosen from the group formed by hydrogen, tetrahydropyranyl, methyloxymethyl, tert-butyl, benzyl, trimethylsilyl and t-butyldimethylsilyl;
- or

- in which:
- the asterisks (*) symbolize the bonds to oxygen atoms,
- R′2 and R″2, which may be identical or different, are chosen from the group formed by hydrogen and a C1-C11 alkyl;
- or
- X1 and X2 form, with the oxygen atoms, a boronic ester having the following formula:
- in which:
- the asterisks (*) symbolize the bonds to oxygen atoms,
- R′″2 is chosen from the group formed by a C6-C30 aryl, a C7-C30 aralkyl and a C2-C30 alkyl;
- the monomer M2 corresponding to the general formula (II):
- in which:
- R2 is chosen from the group formed by —H, —CH3 and —CH2-CH3;
- R3 is chosen from the group formed by:
- —C(O)—OR′3;
- —O—R′3;
- —S—R′3 and —C(O)—N(H)—R′3 with R′3 a C1-C30 alkyl group,

- in which:
- Z1, Z2 and Z3, which may be identical or different, represent groups chosen from a hydrogen atom, a C1-C12 alkyl, and a group —OZ′ or —C(O)—O—Z′ with Z′ being a C1-C12 alkyl.
