Abstract
Description
Technical field:
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of turbine oils, in particular to a rust-proof and corrosion-resistant turbine oil for hydropower generation. Background technology:
[0002] Turbine oil, also known as turbine oil or steam turbine oil, is primarily used in power plant steam turbines, hydro-generators, and other applications requiring a highly refined lubricant. Turbine oil differs from other lubricants primarily in its superior oxidation stability and demulsification properties. It is well-suited for high-speed machinery, primarily providing lubrication, heat dissipation, and cooling.
[0003] Rust and corrosion resistance refers to the ability of turbine oil to form a protective film on metal surfaces using its low surface tension, preventing air and moisture from coming into contact with the metal, thereby preventing rust and corrosion of metal parts. If the turbine oil's rust and corrosion resistance is poor, rust and corrosion on the metal surface will directly affect the normal operation of the turbine. Summary of the invention:
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a rust-proof and corrosion-resistant turbine oil for hydropower generation, wherein the rust-proof and anti-emulsification properties of the turbine oil are enhanced by adding appropriate amounts of rust inhibitors and anti-emulsifiers, while the preparation cost of the turbine oil is controlled, thereby facilitating the promotion and application of the turbine oil.
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved by adopting the following technical solutions:
[0006] One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a rust-proof and corrosion-resistant turbine oil for hydropower generation, comprising the following components in percentage by weight:
[0007]
[0008]
[0009] The balance is base oil.
[0010] Preferably, the base oil is a polyalphaolefin base oil. Polyalphaolefin base oil is classified as a synthetic base oil and has the widest application range. It has excellent viscosity-temperature performance and low-temperature fluidity, as well as good oxidation stability, thermal stability, and hydrolysis stability.
[0011] Preferably, the extreme pressure anti-wear agent is one or a combination of olefin sulfide, phosphate ester, phosphite, and thiophosphate amine salt. Extreme pressure anti-wear agents are additives that prevent sintering, scratching, and wear on sliding metal surfaces under extreme pressure conditions, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity of turbine oil.
[0012] Preferably, the antioxidant is one or a combination of phenolic antioxidants and amine antioxidants. The function of the antioxidant is to prevent the turbine oil from oxidative deterioration, especially to improve the high-temperature oxidation resistance of the turbine oil.
[0013] More preferably, the phenolic antioxidant is one or a combination of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol, 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl) sulfide, and 4,4′-thiobis(3-methyl-6-tert-butylphenol).
[0014] More preferably, the amine antioxidant is an alkyl diphenylamine, including butyl diphenylamine, dibutyl diphenylamine, octyl diphenylamine, dioctyl diphenylamine, etc.
[0015] Preferably, the rust inhibitor is one or a combination of alkenyl succinic acid, alkenyl succinates, barium petroleum sulfonate, and sodium petroleum sulfonate. The polar groups in the rust inhibitor molecules have a strong adsorption force on metal surfaces, forming a tight monomolecular or multimolecular protective layer on the metal surface, preventing corrosive media from contacting the metal parts, thereby achieving a rust-proof effect.
[0016] Preferably, the demulsifier is a copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide with an average molecular weight of 4,000 to 6,000. Demulsibility is the ability of turbine oil to resist mixing with water to form an emulsion and is a very important physical and chemical property of turbine oil. During use, turbine oil inevitably mixes with some cooling water. If the turbine oil has poor demulsibility, the mixed water will cause the oil to emulsify, accelerate oxidation of the turbine oil, increase the acid value, and produce more oxidized deposits, which may cause poor lubrication.
[0017] Preferably, the pour point depressant is polymethacrylate. The pour point depressant lowers the freezing point of turbine oil and improves the low-temperature fluidity of turbine oil, so it is also called a low-temperature flow improver.
[0018] Preferably, the defoamer is a silicone defoamer, a polyacrylate defoamer, or a combination thereof. The defoamer eliminates foam in the turbine oil, as the presence of foam can affect the fluidity of the turbine oil and reduce its lubrication and cooling properties.
[0019] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the demulsifier, comprising adding tert-butyldiethanolamine and potassium hydroxide to a reaction kettle, evacuating the reaction kettle and replacing the reaction kettle with nitrogen, heating the reaction kettle for dehydration, then introducing ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, and carrying out copolymerization at a pressure of 0.3 to 0.35 MPa and a temperature of 110 to 120° C. After the reaction, the reaction kettle is neutralized with glacial acetic acid to a neutral state, and the reaction kettle is dehydrated and discharged to obtain a copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.
[0020] Preferably, the mass ratio of the tert-butyl diethanolamine, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide is 1:4:6; and the amount of the potassium hydroxide used is 0.25% of the total mass of the tert-butyl diethanolamine, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.
[0021] The present invention uses tert-butyl diethanolamine as an initiator. Compared with commonly used propylene glycol and glycerol, the copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide prepared by the present invention has better anti-emulsification performance.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the turbine oil provided by the present invention has suitable viscosity, excellent rust resistance and corrosion resistance, as well as good viscosity-temperature properties, pressure resistance and wear resistance, oxidation resistance, anti-emulsification, anti-foaming properties, etc., and can play an outstanding lubricating, cooling and speed regulating role, reduce the wear of turbine components, and extend the service life of turbine components.
