Benefits of technology

[0008]Applicants have developed improved lubricant compositions, and in many embodiments, lubricant compositions that satisfy a relatively high level of performance for the criteria mentioned above. As used herein, the term “lubricant composition” is used in its broadest sense to include fluid compositions that are used in applications involving metal to metal contact of parts in which at least one function of the fluid is to inhibit or reduce friction between the parts. As such, the term “lubricant composition” as used herein includes gear oils, axle oils, and the like.

Problems solved by technology

These properties represent a difficult to achieve set of performance criteria.

Abstract

A lubricant composition characterized by the Society of Automotive Engineers (“SAE”) as 75W-140 capable of meeting the American Petroleum Institute's (“API”) GL-5 performance classification requirements for use in association with a device involving metal to metal contact of moving parts comprising: (a) base-stock comprising (i) at least one relatively low viscosity polyalphaolefin, and (ii) at least one diester; (b) viscosity improver comprising (i) at least one relatively high viscosity polyalphaolefin, and (ii) polyisobutylene; and (c) a performance additive comprising at least one additive effective to improve at least one property of the lubricant and/or the performance of the equipment in which the lubricant is to be used.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to lubricant compositions having utility in numerous applications, particularly in connection with gear, transmission and / or axle applications in the automotive and machinery industries.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]An important function of lubricant compositions, and in particular gear and axle lubricant fluids, is to provide a high degree of reliability and durability in the service life of equipment in which it is installed. Lubricating oils in general, and gear and axle lubricants in particular, frequently must satisfy a relatively large number of performance criteria to be commercially successful. For example, a commercially successful axle lubricant will frequently be required to possess a high degree of oxidative stability, compatibility, shear stability, corrosion avoidance or resistance, wear protection, shiftability, and extended drain. These properties represent a difficult to achieve set of performance criteria.[0003]...
