Benefits of technology

[0002]Automotive power transmission fluids are called upon to provide specific frictional properties under very demanding conditions of temperature and pressure. Changes in a fluid's frictional properties as a function of relative sliding speed, temperature, or pressure as a result of these conditions may cause performance degradation immediately noticeable to the vehicle operator. Such effects may include unacceptably long or short gear shifts, vehicle shudder or vibration, noise, and/or harsh shifts (“gear change shock”). Thus, there is a need for transmission fluids t

Embodiment Construction

[0013]As used herein, the term “hydrocarbyl substituent” or “hydrocarbyl group” is used in its ordinary sense, which is well-known to those skilled in the art. Specifically, it refers to a group having a carbon atom directly attached to the remainder of a molecule and having a predominantly hydrocarbon character. Examples of hydrocarbyl groups include:[0014](1) hydrocarbon substituents, that is, aliphatic (e.g., alkyl or alkenyl), alicyclic (e.g., cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl) substituents, and aromatic-, aliphatic-, and alicyclic-substituted aromatic substituents, as well as cyclic substituents wherein the ring is completed through another portion of the molecule (e.g., two substituents together form an alicyclic radical);[0015](2) substituted hydrocarbon substituents, that is, substituents containing non-hydrocarbon groups which, in the context of the description herein, do not alter the predominantly hydrocarbon substituent (e.g., halo (especially chloro and fluoro), hydroxy, alkoxy,...

Abstract

A power transmission fluid composition, a power transmission containing the fluid, a method of operating a power transmission with the fluid and method of improving friction durability for a power transmission fluid. The power transmission fluid includes (a) a base oil and (b) an additive composition having therein (i) at least one ashless dispersant; (ii) a metal detergent providing greater than about 100 ppm metal in the power transmission fluid composition; (iii) a friction modifying amount of an imidazoline; (iv) a succinimide friction modifier; and (v) a non-hydroxy tertiary amine friction modifier other than (iii).

Description

FIELD[0001]The present disclosure relates to a power transmission fluid having improved and / or extended durability and enhanced friction characteristics. The present disclosure may comprise a fluid suitable for power transmitting fluids, such as an automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and / or a manual transmission fluid. Power transmitting fluids of the present disclosure may comprise friction modifiers, a borated dispersant, and a metal detergent.BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY[0002]Automotive power transmission fluids are called upon to provide specific frictional properties under very demanding conditions of temperature and pressure. Changes in a fluid's frictional properties as a function of relative sliding speed, temperature, or pressure as a result of these conditions may cause performance degradation immediately noticeable to the vehicle operator. Such effects may include unacceptably long or short gear shifts, vehicle shudder or vibration, noise, and / or harsh shifts (“gear change shock...
