Abstract
The invention relates to thiophosphates and derivatives thereof useful as antiwear additive components, lubricant additive compositions and lubricant compositions each comprising such compounds, methods for making and using the same, including methods of lubricating machines and machine parts and methods of extending the useful life of elastomeric seal components of such machines. In one aspect, the invention relates to a lubricant additive composition comprising a compound of formula (I): or a tribologically acceptable salt thereof, and a sulfonate or a phenate detergent.
Claims30
A lubricant additive composition comprising:
- a. a compound of formula (I)
- or a tribologically acceptable salt thereof,
- wherein A is:
- each R1 is the same or different and is independently selected from alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, aryl, and aralkyl, wherein said aryl and aralkyl are optionally substituted with one to three substituents each independently selected from alkyl and alkenyl;
- each R2 and R3 are independently selected from H, alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl and cycloalkylalkyl;
- Y is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, benzyl, and —R4-R5-R6;
- R4 is alkylene;
- R5 is selected from the group consisting of a bond, alkylene;
- —C(O)— and —C(R7)—;
- R6 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, hydroxyalkyleneoxy, hydroxy and alkoxy;
- R7 is hydroxy;
- m is an integer from 2 to 8;
- X1 is R8 or Z;
- X2 is selected from the group consisting of R8,
- and
- R8 is alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, aryl, and aralkyl, wherein said aryl and aralkyl are optionally substituted with one to three substituents each independently selected from alkyl and alkenyl;
- and
- Z is
- wherein when X2 is R8, X1 is Z;
- and
- b. a detergent,
- wherein the detergent comprises a sulfonate or a phenate.
