Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a lubricating oil composition comprising: (a) a major amount of a lubricating oil, (a) a diarylamine antioxidant, and (b) an amidine compound of Formula (I), wherein R 1 is hydrogen, an alkyl or an aromatic group containing 1-30 carbon atoms; x is from 1 to 5; Y is an optional linking alkyl group; Z is carbon or nitrogen; and R 2 is hydrogen or alkyl groups containing 1-30 carbon atoms. Also provided is a method for lubricating an engine comprising lubricating the engine with said lubricating oil composition.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A lubricating oil composition comprising: (a) a major amount of a lubricating oil, (b) a diarylamine antioxidant, and (c) an amidine compound of Formula (I), wherein R 1 is hydrogen, an alkyl or an aromatic group containing 1-30 carbon atoms; x is from 1 to 5; Y is an optional linking alkyl group; Z is carbon or nitrogen; and R 2 is hydrogen or alkyl groups containing 1-30 carbon atoms. 2. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the diarylamine antioxidant is selected from the group comprising diphenylamine, phenyl-α-naphthylamine, and alkylated diarylamines. 3. The lubricating oil composition of claim 2 , wherein the diarylamine antioxidant is diphenylamine. 4. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the diarylamine antioxidant in the lubricating oil composition is at least about 0.01 wt. %. 5. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the diarylamine antioxidant in the lubricating oil composition is 0.01 to 10 wt. %. 6. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the diarylamine antioxidant in the lubricating oil composition is 0.2 to 10 wt. %. 7. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the diarylamine antioxidant in the lubricating oil composition is 0.1 to 5 wt. %. 8. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the amidine compound in the lubricating oil composition is from greater than 0.5 to 5 wt. %. 9. The lubricating oil composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the amidine compound in the lubricating oil composition from greater than 0.5 to 2 wt. %. 10. A lubricating oil composition in claim 1 further comprises a molybdenum-containing antioxidant. 11. A lubricating oil composition in claim 10 , wherein the molybdenum-containing antioxidant is a molybdenum succinimide. 12. A method for lubricating an engine comprising lubricating the engine with a lubricating oil composition comprising: (a) a major amount of a lubricating oil, (b) a diarylamine antioxidant, and (c) an amidine compound of Formula (I), wherein R 1 is hydrogen, an alkyl or an aromatic group containing 1-30 carbon atoms; x is from 1 to 5; Y is an optional linking alkyl group; Z is carbon or nitrogen; and R 2 is hydrogen or alkyl groups containing 1-30 carbon atoms. 13. The method of claim 12 wherein the concentration of the diarylamine antioxidant in the lubricating oil composition is 0.01 to 10 wt. %. 14. The method of claim 12 wherein the concentration of the amidine compound in the lubricating oil composition is from greater than 0.5 to 5 wt. %. 15. The method of claim 12 wherein the lubricating oil composition further comprises a molybdenum-containing antioxidant. 16. The method of claim 15 wherein the molybdenum-containing antioxidant is a molybdenum succinimide.
