Abstract
An environmentally-improved motor oil blend and related methods for properly lubricating components of an engine and favorably modifying a plastic response of components of the engine, the blend being free of zinc di-alkyl-di-thiophosphates (ZDDP) and free of zinc di-thiophosphate (ZDTP), comprising: a motor oil selected from the motor oil group consisting of Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, and Group V motor oils; a motor oil additive comprising alpha-olefins and hydroisomerized hydro-treated severe hydrocracked base oil; ZDDP omitted from the chemical constituents of the motor oil; and ZDTP omitted from the chemical constituents of the motor oil.
Claims24
The motor oil blend of claim 3, said synthetic sulfonates comprising thixotropic calcium sulfonates.
The motor oil blend of claim 1, said alpha-olefins comprising polymerized alpha-olefins.
The motor oil blend of claim 1, said motor oil additive further comprising vacuum distilled non-aromatic solvent.
The motor oil blend of claim 1, said motor oil additive further comprising liquefied polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
A method of producing an environmentally-improved motor oil blend for properly lubricating components of an engine and favorably modifying a plastic response of components of the engine, said blend being free of zinc di-alkyl-di-thiophosphates (ZDDP) and free of zinc di-thiophosphate (ZDTP), comprising:
- providing a motor oil selected from the motor oil group consisting of Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, and Group V motor oils;
- omitting ZDDP from the chemical constituents of said motor oil;
- omitting ZDTP from the chemical constituents of said motor oil;
- combining a motor oil additive comprising alpha-olefins and hydroisomerized hydro-treated severe hydrocracked base oil with said motor oil to yield said motor oil blend;
- omitting ZDDP from the chemical constituents of said motor oil additive;
- and
- omitting ZDTP from the chemical constituents of said motor oil additive.
A method for lubricating an engine and its components without zinc di-alkyl-di-thiophosphates (ZDDP) and without zinc di-thiophosphate (ZDTP), comprising introducing into the engine:
- a motor oil selected from the motor oil group consisting of Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, and Group V motor oils, said motor oil omitting ZDDP from its chemical constituents and said motor oil omitting ZDTP from its chemical constituents;
- a motor oil additive comprising polymerized alpha-olefins and hydroisomerized hydro-treated severe hydrocracked base oil, said motor oil additive omitting ZDDP from its chemical constituents and said motor oil additive omitting ZDTP from its chemical constituents;
- whereby:
- the combination of said polymerized alpha-olefins and said base oil properly lubricates said engine components and favorably modifies a plastic response of engine components;
- and
- said omission of ZDDP and ZDTP also favorably impacts the environment.
