Benefits of technology

The invention provides a lubricating oil that has a high viscosity index and excellent lubricity. This oil can be used in industrial machines and mechanical devices like car transmissions, leading to energy saved.

Problems solved by technology

Using a lubricating oil with a viscosity considerably variable depending on temperature in a hydraulic device or a transmission hinders a smooth operation of the device, resulting in loss of operational energy.
However, even when a lubricating oil has a viscosity index of 200, a viscosity of the lubricating oil at minus 20 degrees C. is approximately 100 times as large as a viscosity at 100 degrees C. and a viscosity at minus 40 degrees C. is more than 1000 times. Thus, the smooth operation of a device is hindered at a low temperature to considerably waste the operational energy.

Abstract

A lubricating oil composition contains: (A) organopolysiloxane; and (B) at least one of a sulfur compound, a phosphorus compound and a zinc compound, the lubricating oil composition having a kinematic viscosity not less than 1 mm2 / s and less than 40.0 mm2 / s at 100 degrees C. The lubricating oil composition is favorably usable in mechanical devices such as a hydraulic device, a stationary gear, an automobile transmission, a motor / battery cooling device and a joint.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition containing organopolysiloxane as a base stock and a mechanical device using the same.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Using a lubricating oil with a viscosity considerably variable depending on temperature in a hydraulic device or a transmission hinders a smooth operation of the device, resulting in loss of operational energy. In particular, for, for instance, a wind power generator built in a cold region, an accelerating / decelerating device or a hydraulic device used in a region that undergoes extreme temperature changes, an automatic transmission or a continuously variable transmission for an automobile intended to travel from a very cold region to an extremely hot region, and a cooling device, a used lubricating oil desirably has a viscosity less variable depending on temperature.[0003]In connection with the above, a viscosity index (VI) is used as an index showing the temperature dependence of the viscosity o...
