Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of oil processing, and specifically relates to a method and an oil composition for improving the rust-preventive properties of oils. Background Technology

[0002] During storage, transportation, and use, petroleum products can corrode materials and machinery they come into contact with, causing a series of hazards. For example, they can damage metal parts of oil storage containers and engine fuel systems, shortening the lifespan of these metal parts; they can also cause fuel contamination, corrode rubber seals, reduce fuel stability, and accelerate the wear and tear of machine parts.

[0003] The reasons why fuel oil corrodes metals can be categorized as follows: First, fuel oil contains dissolved water or a small amount of free water. When water-containing fuel oil comes into contact with containers, pipelines, oil pumps, etc., it may cause rust on the metal. Second, sulfur and sulfur-containing compounds, organic acids, water-soluble acids or alkalis, water additives, and bacteria in the fuel can also cause metal corrosion. Third, alcohol compounds added to gasoline fuel have corrosive effects, and mixtures of hydrocarbons and alcohols can reduce the adsorption capacity of surfactants on metal surfaces, thus exacerbating the corrosion of metals by gasoline fuel.

[0004] Rust inhibitors are highly efficient synthetic penetrants that can powerfully penetrate rust, corrosion, and oil stains to remove them. Adding rust inhibitors (corrosion inhibitors) to oils is an effective and feasible way to reduce the corrosion of mechanical equipment caused by oils. The proper use of rust inhibitors is an economical and effective means of preventing the corrosion of metals and their alloys.

[0005] CN1597876A provides a functional additive for inhibiting metal corrosion. The additive is a composition consisting of magnesium-based inorganic compounds, solvent oil, organic acid, and accelerator. Its main component with anti-rust properties is an oil-soluble magnesium salt, which can inhibit corrosion caused by vanadium and sodium metal ions.

[0006] CN102286300A provides a metal corrosion inhibitor composed of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, methacrylate oligomer and polypropylene glycol. It is an ashless additive with an addition amount of 0.02-0.03% in fuel. It requires a small amount and has low cost.

[0007] CN115304485A provides an oil rust inhibitor additive, which is an acidic additive prepared from unsaturated fatty acids or unsaturated fatty acid esters through addition and hydrolysis reactions.

[0008] However, existing rust inhibitors added to oils still have problems such as poor rust prevention performance of the oils and high pour point of the rust inhibitors. Summary of the Invention

[0048] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the structural formula is R2[OR1]. n In the OH alcohol ether, n is 2, and the alcohol ether is selected from diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, diethylene glycol monopropyl ether, diethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether, diethylene glycol monoisobutyl ether, diethylene glycol monotert-butyl ether, diethylene glycol monopentyl ether, diethylene glycol monohexyl ether, diethylene glycol monooctyl ether, diethylene glycol monoisooctyl ether, diethylene glycol monononyl ether, diethylene glycol monoisononyl ether, diethylene glycol monoisoundeether, diethylene glycol monoisotridecyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monopropyl ether, dipropylene glycol monobutyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoisobutyl ether, dipropylene glycol monotert-butyl ether, dipropylene glycol monopentyl ether, dipropylene glycol monohexyl ether, dipropylene glycol monooctyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoisooctyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoisononyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoisoundeether, and dipropylene glycol monoisotridecyl ether.

[0050] In order to enable the methyl oleate succinic anhydride intermediate to react and generate methyl oleate succinic anhydride alcohol ether ester, the molar ratio of the methyl oleate succinic anhydride intermediate to the alcohol ether is 1:(0.5-3), the esterification reaction temperature is 40-180℃, and the reaction time is 10min-10h.

[0058] Depending on the reaction requirements, a reaction solvent may be added to the olefin reaction, which may be one or more of toluene, petroleum ether, hexane, xylene, and ethylbenzene.

[0059] In this process, because the chemical bonds of the reactants break under the influence of light, heat, or oxygen, reactive free radicals and hydroperoxides are generated, which may then trigger a free radical chain reaction. To prevent the free radical reaction, an antioxidant is added to the alkene reaction. The antioxidant is one or more of phenolic antioxidants, amine antioxidants, and heterocyclic antioxidants. The phenolic antioxidant is selected from isooctyl 3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate, antioxidant 1010, antioxidant 2246, and antioxidant 107. 6 and one or more of antioxidant 300; the amine antioxidant is selected from one or more of N',N-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine, N,N'-hexamethylene-bis-3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionamide, phenothiazine (diphenylamine sulfide), antioxidant DNP, antioxidant H and antioxidant 4010; the heterocyclic antioxidant is selected from one or more of benzotriazole, alkyl-substituted imidazoline, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole and their derivatives.
