Abstract
There is provided a process for preparing an oil-soluble composition that is suitable for use as a dispersant in lubricating oils, is compatible with fluorohydrocarbon elastomers, and is rich in alkyl bis-3-amino-1,2,4-triazole. Selected conditions are necessary to produce a reaction product that is compatible with fluorohydrocarbon elastomers. There is provided also a lubricating oil composition which comprises the aforesaid dispersant.

A process for preparing an oil soluble composition which is suitable for use as a lube oil dispersant additive having improved compatibility with fluorohydrocarbon-containing elastomeric engine seals, which process comprising reacting a hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic compound selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl-substituted dicarboxylic acids, hydrocarbyl-substituted dicarboxylic acid anhydrides, and mixtures thereof, said hydrocarbyl substituent being about C.sub.30 -C.sub.200, with a basic salt of aminoguanidine, wherein said reaction is conducted at a temperature of from about 170.degree. C. (338.degree. F.) to about 200.degree. C. (392.degree. F.) and the relative amounts of said aminoguanidine and said hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic compound are such that the product obtained upon reaction thereof exhibits of dominant infrared peak at 1640 cm.sup.-1.
A dispersant composition comprising:
- the reaction product obtained upon reacting a hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic compound selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic acids, hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic acid anhydrides, and mixtures thereof, said hydrocarbyl substituent being about C.sub.30 -C.sub.200, with a basic salt of aminoguanidine at a temperature of from about 170.degree. C. (338.degree. F.) to about 200.degree. C. (392.degree. F.), said reaction product being characterized by a dominant infrared peak at 1640 cm.sup.-1.
A composition comprising lubricating oil and a dispersant additive, said dispersant additive comprising:
- the reaction product obtained upon reacting a hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic compound selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic acids, hydrocarbyl substituted dicarboxylic acid anhydrides, and mixtures thereof, said hydrocarbyl substituent being about C.sub.30 -C.sub.200, with a basic salt of aminoguanidine at a temperature of from about 170.degree. C. (338.degree. F.) to about 200.degree. C. (392.degree. F.), said reaction product being characterized by a dominant infrared peak at 1640 cm.sup.-1.
