Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of lubricating oil preparation, and relates to a reducer lubricating oil suitable for new energy vehicles and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The rapid development of new energy vehicles has driven technological innovation in the automotive industry. Compared with traditional internal combustion engine vehicles, the reducers of new energy vehicles need to withstand higher speeds, greater output torques, and more complex working conditions. This makes the development of reducer lubricants key to improving the performance of new energy vehicles. The design of lubricants in traditional vehicles mainly revolves around the operating characteristics of the internal combustion engine. Its main functions include reducing friction, reducing wear, cooling the engine, and preventing corrosion. However, there are significant differences between the operating conditions of traditional internal combustion engines and the electric drive systems of new energy vehicles, making it difficult for traditional lubricants to fully meet the special needs of new energy vehicle reducers. In internal combustion engine vehicles, the design of lubricants usually needs to deal with complex combustion byproducts, while in new energy vehicles, the power transmission system mainly consists of high-efficiency motors and reducers, and their operating characteristics put forward new requirements for lubricants.
[0003] First, new energy vehicles (NEVs) are centered around electric drive systems. The high speeds of the motors significantly increase the operating frequency and surface sliding speeds of the gears within the reducer, posing new challenges to the lubricant's anti-wear properties, viscosity stability, and thermal-oxidative stability. Specifically, high speeds significantly increase the meshing frequency of the gears, leading to significantly increased contact stress and sliding friction between the gear surfaces. Conventional lubricants can experience a decrease in viscosity or oil film breakdown under high shear stress, rendering them unable to effectively protect the gear surfaces, leading to increased wear and lubrication failure. Furthermore, high speed operation can cause bubbles in the lubricant. These bubbles not only reduce the lubricant's heat transfer capacity but can also cause the lubricant film on the gear surface to break down and increase localized wear. Second, the high operating temperatures and long-duration operation within the reducer require lubricants with enhanced thermal stability and oxidation resistance to prevent degradation that could impact the reducer's lifespan. In NEVs, the high efficiency of the motors generates significant heat, which is transferred through the reducer into the lubricant, significantly increasing its temperature. At high temperatures, lubricating oil can undergo oxidative decomposition, producing acidic substances and insoluble particles. These byproducts can accelerate the corrosion and wear of gears and bearings, seriously affecting the reliability and life of the reducer. Therefore, the development of a lubricant for reducers suitable for new energy vehicles is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles and a preparation method thereof. First, 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine is reacted with 4-hydroxyphenylboronic acid to generate an intermediate containing triazine and borate functional units, and a multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex is prepared, which effectively reduces the friction and wear of the reducer gear. Secondly, 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile is used as the core raw material, and its reactivity is enhanced by metallization treatment with n-butyl lithium and reaction with phosphorus oxychloride. Subsequently, it is reacted with thioester and 4,4'-dithiodibenzoic acid to synthesize a nitrogen heterocycle-sulfur phosphorus polymer, which gives the lubricant excellent thermal and chemical stability. Finally, the two composite materials are dispersed in a base oil with additives such as antioxidants and defoamers to prepare a lubricant, thereby meeting the needs of actual production.
[0005] To achieve this object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles, the preparation method comprising:
[0007] S1, dispersing 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, 4-hydroxyphenylboric acid, and sodium hydride in xylene, adjusting the temperature to a first temperature after uniform dispersion, stirring and refluxing, filtering while hot after completion of the reaction, and rotary evaporating to obtain product A, dispersing product A, o-phenanthroline, ferrous sulfate, and triethylamine in toluene, mixing uniformly, and then adding triphenyl phosphate, adjusting the temperature to a second temperature, refluxing, and refluxing. After completion of the reaction, maintaining the temperature and performing reduced pressure distillation to obtain a multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex;
[0008] S2, under a nitrogen atmosphere and an ice-water bath, dispersing 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile and n-butyl lithium solution in tetrahydrofuran, stirring evenly, then adding phosphorus oxychloride and removing the ice-water bath, stirring thoroughly, and concentrating under reduced pressure to obtain pre-derivatized 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile, mixing 1,2,3-triazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid, methanol, and concentrated sulfuric acid, adjusting the temperature to a second temperature, reacting to generate triazole dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester, and then mixing triazole dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester with phosphorus pentasulfide, maintaining the second temperature, and reacting to obtain a thioester, dispersing the pre-derivatized 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile, the thioester, boron trifluoride etherate, and 4,4'-dithiodibenzoic acid in dimethylformamide, adjusting the temperature to a third temperature for reaction, cooling to 50° C. after the reaction, pouring the reaction solution into deionized water, separating the organic phase, and drying to obtain an nitrogen heterocycle-phosphorus sulfur polymer;
[0009] S3, adding a multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex, a nitrogen heterocycle-sulfur-phosphorus polymer, an antioxidant, a defoaming agent, and a rust inhibitor to a base oil, and mixing them evenly to obtain a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles.
[0010] 2,4,6-Trichloro-1,3,5-triazine reacts with 4-hydroxyphenylboronic acid to form intermediate A. 2,4,6-Trichloro-1,3,5-triazine is a typical nitrogen-aromatic compound. Its triazine ring consists of three nitrogen atoms and three carbon atoms, forming a conjugated aromatic system. The triazine ring's electronic structure gives it strong electron-attracting properties, resulting in a strong electrophilicity of the chlorine atoms on the ring. This electrophilicity makes the chlorine atoms on the triazine ring easily attacked and substituted by nucleophiles. The hydroxyl group in 4-hydroxyphenylboronic acid acts as a nucleophile, which can deprotonate under alkaline conditions to form a negative ion, thus exhibiting stronger nucleophilicity. At the beginning of the reaction, 4-hydroxyphenylboronic acid undergoes a nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction with the triazine ring. The nucleophilic hydroxyl anion attacks a chlorine atom on the triazine ring, forming a hydroxyphenylboronic acid-modified triazine product. Throughout the reaction, the highly conjugated nature of the triazine ring stabilizes the transition state and lowers the reaction energy barrier, allowing the nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction to proceed smoothly under relatively mild conditions. To improve the efficiency and selectivity of the reaction, sodium hydride is added to the reaction system as a base. This design serves to capture the hydrogen chloride generated during the reaction, preventing its accumulation in the system and increasing the acidity. The presence of hydrogen chloride significantly reduces the activity of the nucleophile and may attack the triazine ring, leading to side reactions or degradation of the product. Sodium hydride reacts with hydrogen chloride, removing hydrogen chloride from the reaction system, thereby maintaining an alkaline environment and ensuring high activity of the nucleophile. This process improves the reaction yield and increases the purity of the product. The final product is a triazine intermediate bearing a hydroxyphenylboronic acid group, namely, Product A. The introduction of hydroxyphenylboronic acid is of great significance in molecular structure design. First, the introduction of the benzene ring enhances the rigidity of the molecular system through π-π interactions with the triazine ring, thereby improving the mechanical stability of the product, especially under high shear conditions. Second, the boronic acid group provides the molecule with multiple potential reaction sites, which can participate in subsequent chemical reactions through hydrogen bonds or coordination bonds, providing the possibility for further functionalization. Furthermore, the introduction of hydroxyphenylboronic acid enhances the ability of intermolecular interactions, allowing Product A to form more complex three-dimensional molecular networks with other molecules in subsequent reactions.
[0011] Product A undergoes a complex coordination chemical reaction with o-phenanthroline and triphenyl phosphate, further functionalizing it into a multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex. O-phenanthroline is a bidentate ligand containing two pyridine rings in its molecular structure. Each nitrogen atom on the pyridine ring possesses a lone pair of electrons, which can form stable coordination bonds with electron-deficient centers (such as nitrogen or boron atoms on the triazine ring). In Product A, both the boronic acid group and the nitrogen atom of the triazine ring provide potential coordination sites. In the presence of ferrous iron, o-phenanthroline, through its bidentate coordination properties, forms an octahedral structure with the ferrous iron ion. The metal coordination center binds to the electron-deficient region of the triazine ring through electrostatic interactions. Triphenyl phosphate forms a BOP covalent bond with the boronic acid group through an ester exchange reaction, constructing a three-dimensional crosslinked network. The phosphorus-oxygen double bond stabilizes free radicals through an inductive effect. Lubricant oxidation is an inevitable problem under high temperature conditions. Phosphates, by capturing free radicals, can effectively inhibit the occurrence of oxidative chain reactions, thereby significantly improving the antioxidant properties of lubricants. Furthermore, the introduction of triphenyl phosphate further enhances the three-dimensional rigidity of the molecular system, resulting in superior stability under high-temperature and high-shear conditions. The triazine ring, as the core skeleton, provides a highly stable chemical structure. The boric acid group and phosphate interact through chemical and coordination bonds to form a multifunctional molecular network. The introduction of o-phenanthroline further enhances the molecule's overall performance, including chemical inertness, thermal stability, and shear stability. This molecular design not only imparts excellent performance to the final product under high-temperature conditions but also provides a sound chemical foundation for its use as a lubricant additive.
[0012] 2-Amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile was introduced as a starting material into the reaction system. Its molecule contains two nitrile groups and one amino group, providing key reactive sites for subsequent reactions. The high electron density and polarity of the nitrile group, due to its triple bond structure, allow it to participate in a variety of chemical reactions through appropriate activation methods, while the nucleophilicity of the amino group provides additional reactive functionality. Under nitrogen protection and in an ice-water bath, 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile reacted with n-butyllithium solution. n-Butyllithium is a strongly basic organic reagent that activates the nitrile group by deprotonation, generating a more reactive lithiated nitrile group. This process occurs through electron transfer between the base and the nitrile group, significantly enhancing the nucleophilicity of the nitrile group and providing the necessary chemical activity for the subsequent reaction with thionyl chloride. After activation of the nitrile group by n-butyllithium, phosphorus oxychloride was gradually added to the reaction system. Phosphorus oxychloride is a highly electrophilic reagent, and the unique electron cloud distribution of the phosphorus atom in its molecule makes it extremely reactive toward nucleophiles. When phosphorus oxychloride comes into contact with the lithiated nitrile group, the nucleophilic center (nitrogen atom) of the nitrile group will actively attack the phosphorus atom to generate pre-derivatized 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile, and the chloride ion leaves to form a PO bond.
[0013] After the pre-derivatization step, the product is introduced into a dimethylformamide solvent. The thioester groups, acting as electrophilic centers, undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions with amino groups in the pre-derivatized product, forming thioamide bonds. Specifically, carboxyl groups react with amino groups via electrophilic attack and dehydration to form amide bonds, while carboxyl groups react with nitrile groups via nucleophilic addition to form ester bonds or other crosslinked structures. The formation of these chemical bonds not only strengthens intermolecular bonding but also significantly enhances the mechanical strength and chemical stability of the polymer. The introduction of the triazole ring provides additional rigidity and electron density to the polymer network. As a nitrogen-containing aromatic ring, the triazole ring has a high π electron density, which enables strong intermolecular interactions with the imidazole ring in the pre-derivatized product through π-π stacking. This interaction helps to build a highly compact molecular network, resulting in enhanced mechanical integrity of the polymer under high shear conditions. Furthermore, the high electron density of the triazole ring enables it to capture free radicals or other oxidative intermediates under oxidative conditions, thereby inhibiting the propagation of the oxidative chain reaction. This property is crucial for improving the polymer's high-temperature oxidation resistance. Boron trifluoride also enhances the π-π stacking between the triazole and imidazole rings through electrostatic interactions with the aromatic rings. This dual effect of catalysis and intermolecular forces further increases the crosslink density and structural rigidity of the molecular network. 4,4'-Dithiodibenzoic acid undergoes free radical addition to the unsaturated bonds in the pre-cured product, forming an SS crosslinked network. The resulting nitrogen-heterocyclic-phosphorus-sulfur polymer exhibits a highly crosslinked three-dimensional network structure, comprising a variety of functional building blocks, including imidazole, triazole, aromatic, phosphorus-sulfur, and amide bonds. These building blocks work synergistically to impart the polymer with exceptional shear resistance and high-temperature oxidation resistance. This enhanced shear resistance is primarily attributed to strong intermolecular interactions, including π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding, and the high strength of chemical crosslinks. These forces collectively create a highly rigid molecular network, enabling the polymer to maintain mechanical integrity and stable performance under high shear conditions. The enhancement of high-temperature oxidation resistance comes from the synergistic effect of sulfur-phosphorus bonds, triazole rings and hydroxyl groups. These structural units can capture oxidative intermediates, inhibit oxidation chain reactions, and resist high-temperature degradation through chemical stability, thereby extending the service life of the material under extreme working conditions.
[0014] The reaction of 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine with 4-hydroxyphenylboronic acid, followed by coordination with ligands such as o-phenanthroline, ferrous sulfate, and triphenyl phosphate, produces a multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex. The self-healing ability of this complex stems from the reversibility of its dynamic coordination bonds, particularly the boron-oxygen and iron-nitrogen coordination bonds on the triazine ring, which break and reform under friction or high temperature conditions, thereby enabling the self-repair of damaged structures. Furthermore, the phosphate groups form a stable phosphate protective film on the friction surface, which can re-cover damaged areas through intermolecular self-assembly after wear. The chemical stability of the triazine ring further enhances the material's tolerance under harsh conditions and slows the spread of wear. The reaction of 2-amino-4,5-imidazole dicarbonitrile with a thioester and 4,4'-dithiodibenzoic acid successfully prepared a nitrogen heterocycle-sulfur-phosphorus polymer. The self-healing properties of this material primarily rely on the dynamic covalent bonds in its molecular structure, particularly sulfur-phosphorus and disulfide bonds, which can break and reform under external forces, thereby repairing damage to the material. Furthermore, the high polarity of the nitrogen atoms in the imidazole ring structure can promote hydrogen bonding or ionic interactions between molecules, which enhances the material's ability to recover structural integrity through reassembly after damage.

[0034] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) the multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex improves the wear resistance and thermal oxidation stability by introducing functional chemical units such as triazine, borate and phosphate. The high symmetry and chemical inertness of the triazine ring give the complex excellent high-temperature stability, so that it can maintain the integrity of the molecular structure under high temperature environment and is not easy to decompose or fail. The borate and phosphate form a stable lubricating protective film on the metal surface, thereby effectively reducing the friction coefficient and reducing the wear of the gear meshing parts. The phosphate can also provide extreme pressure protection under high load conditions, further improving the extreme working condition adaptability of the lubricant; (2) the nitrogen heterocycle-sulfur phosphorus polymer is formed by the specific chemical structure of imidazole dinitrile, triazole, phosphorus pentasulfide and the like. The introduction of imidazole dinitrile enhances the anti-oxidation and extreme pressure protection properties of the lubricant. The nitrogen heterocyclic structure of imidazole dinitrile has excellent chemical stability and high temperature resistance, which can effectively inhibit the oxidative decomposition of the lubricant at high temperature, thereby avoiding the formation of acidic byproducts and deposits. The sulfur-phosphide structure forms a strong extreme pressure protective film through chemical reaction under high load conditions, significantly enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the lubricant under extreme working conditions and reducing the wear of gears and bearings. (3) The boron-oxygen bond and iron-nitrogen coordination bond in the multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex, as well as the sulfur-phosphorus bond and disulfide bond in the nitrogen heterocyclic-sulfur-phosphorus polymer, all have dynamic chemical bond characteristics and can be broken under external force and reformed through thermodynamic drive or catalysis, thereby repairing the damage of the molecular structure. At the same time, the phosphate group and sulfur element form phosphate and sulfide protective films on the friction surface, respectively, which can be rebuilt through molecular migration and self-assembly after surface wear, further reducing wear and repairing damage.

[0058] Comparative Example 1
[0059] This comparative example provides a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles. The difference between it and Example 1 is that the mass of triphenyl phosphate in S1 is 70g, which is 30g more than that in Example 1. The other process parameters and operating conditions are exactly the same as those in Example 1.
[0060] Comparative Example 2
[0061] This comparative example provides a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles. The difference between it and Example 1 is that the mass of triphenyl phosphate in S1 is 10g, which is 30g less than that in Example 1. The other process parameters and operating conditions are exactly the same as those in Example 1.
[0062] Comparative Example 3
[0063] This comparative example provides a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles. The difference between it and Example 1 is that the mass of 1,2,3-triazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid in S2 is 40g, which is 20g more than that in Example 1. The other process parameters and operating conditions are exactly the same as those in Example 1.
[0064] Comparative Example 4
[0065] This comparative example provides a reducer lubricant suitable for new energy vehicles. The difference between it and Example 1 is that the mass of 1,2,3-triazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid in S2 is 5g, which is 15g less than that in Example 1.

[0066] The high-temperature oxidation resistance of lubricating oils (rotating oxygen egg method) was tested according to ASTM D2272, and the shear stability index (SSI) was tested according to SH / T0103-92. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0067] Table 1 Test results of reducer lubricating oil suitable for new energy vehicles in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-4
[0068]
[0069] As shown in Table 1, compared with Example 1, the rotary oxygen bomb time of Comparative Example 1 is reduced and the SSI is increased; the rotary oxygen bomb time of Comparative Example 2 is reduced and the SSI is increased. Excessive triphenyl phosphate in Comparative Example 1 may lead to the generation of by-products (such as incompletely reacted phosphate remaining in the final lubricant), which may have lower thermal stability and accelerate degradation at high temperatures. Excessive phosphate causes cross-linking points to be too dense, molecular chain motion is restricted, and material brittleness increases. In Comparative Example 2, the amount of triphenyl phosphate is insufficient, and the introduction of insufficient phosphate groups can cause the antioxidant properties of the multi-coordinated triazine boron-phosphorus complex to decrease, and the free radical capture efficiency is reduced. At the same time, there are too few cross-linking points and the molecular chain is easy to slip.
[0070] As shown in Table 1, compared with Example 1, the rotary oxygen bomb time of Comparative Example 3 is reduced and the SSI is increased; the rotary oxygen bomb time of Comparative Example 4 is reduced and the SSI is increased. In Comparative Example 3, the amount of 1,2,3-triazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid used is too much, and incompletely reacted triazole dicarboxylic acid remains, which may accelerate the oxidation reaction in a high temperature environment. The excess 1,2,3-triazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid causes the thioester cross-linking network to be too dense. The high cross-linking density restricts the movement of molecular segments and increases the brittleness of the material. In Comparative Example 4, the amount of 1,2,3-triazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid used is insufficient, resulting in fewer thioester cross-linking points, reduced free radical capture ability, and decreased antioxidant performance. The sparse cross-linking points make the molecular chain easy to slip, making the lubricating oil more susceptible to molecular chain breakage under high shear conditions.
