Description

A centrifugal air compressor lubricating oil composition Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of lubricating oil technology, and specifically relates to a lubricating oil composition for centrifugal air compressors. Background Technology

[0002] Centrifugal air compressors are small in size, light in weight, compact in structure, have fewer parts, are easy to maintain, and offer good cooling, high efficiency, and stable gas delivery. Therefore, they are widely used in the compressor equipment field, especially in industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and mining, where their market share is showing a significant upward trend. To further improve the working efficiency of centrifugal air compressors, reduce maintenance costs, and expand their application range, centrifugal air compressors have been rapidly developing towards simplification, compactness, and lightweighting in recent years. At the same time, the operating conditions, such as equipment pressure, temperature, stage pressure ratio, and discharge volume, are constantly increasing, making the operating conditions more demanding. Consequently, the requirements for the service life, oxidation resistance, rust prevention, and corrosion resistance of centrifugal air compressor lubricating oils are also becoming increasingly stringent.

[0003] While current centrifugal air compressor lubricants can improve various properties (e.g., oxidation resistance, rust prevention, corrosion resistance, demulsification, and anti-foaming properties) to some extent, the degree of improvement remains limited, leaving room for further enhancement, particularly in rust prevention. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a centrifugal air compressor lubricant composition that offers superior oxidation resistance, rust prevention, corrosion resistance, demulsification, and anti-foaming properties. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a centrifugal air compressor lubricating oil composition that has excellent antioxidant, rust-preventive, corrosion-resistant, demulsifying, and anti-foaming properties, and can meet the lubrication requirements of centrifugal air compressors under harsh operating conditions.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is a centrifugal air compressor lubricating oil composition, comprising the following components by mass percentage: 0.5-5% ionic liquid; 0.1-1% antioxidant; 0.1-1% rust inhibitor; 0.05-0.5% metal passivator; 0.01-0.1% demulsifier; 0.005-0.05% antifoaming agent; and the balance being base oil.

[0006] The invention is further characterized in that,

[0007] The composition comprises the following components by mass percentage: 2-4% ionic liquid; 0.5-1% antioxidant; 0.5-1% rust inhibitor; 0.1-0.3% metal passivator; 0.02-0.05% demulsifier; 0.01-0.03% antifoaming agent; and the balance being base oil.

[0008] The structural formula of ionic liquid is:

[0009]

[0010] The antioxidant is at least one of dioctyl diphenylamine, dinonyl diphenylamine, styryl octyl diphenylamine, octyl butyl diphenylamine, octyl pentyl diphenylamine, nonyl butyl diphenylamine and 4,4'-methylenebis(2,6-di-tert-butylphenol).

[0011] The rust inhibitor is at least one of dinonylnaphthalenesulfonate calcium, dodecenyl succinic acid, isononylphenoxyacetic acid, dodecenyl succinic acid half ester and dodecenyl succinic acid monoester.

[0012] The metal passivating agent is at least one of methylbenzotriazole, N,N'-dialkylaminomethylenetriazole, and N,N'-disaline propylenediamine.

[0013] The demulsifier is oil-soluble polyether DL32; the antifoaming agent is No. 1 composite antifoaming agent; the base oil is hydrogenated mineral oil VHVI 6.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The centrifugal air compressor lubricating oil composition of this invention, on the one hand, has an ionic liquid as its main additive component, which not only has good solubility but also exhibits excellent compatibility when combined with other components. On the other hand, this centrifugal air compressor lubricating oil composition possesses superior antioxidant properties (high rotational oxygen bomb properties), rust prevention properties (qualified by liquid phase corrosion B method), corrosion resistance properties (corrosion grade of copper sheet is 1b or higher at 100℃ for 3 hours), demulsification properties (oil-water separation time less than or equal to 10 minutes), and anti-foaming properties (foaming tendency / foaming stability less than or equal to 10 / 0 mL / mL), especially exhibiting superior rust prevention properties. When used in the shaft seals, gears, and bearings of centrifugal air compressors, this centrifugal air compressor lubricating oil composition provides excellent lubrication, extends the service life of the centrifugal air compressor, and broadens its application range.
