Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of lubricating oil additive preparation technology, specifically relating to compressor oil additive compositions, methods for preparing compressor oil additive compositions, and compressor oils. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of compression technology, large compressor equipment is being used in more and more scenarios, especially in industries such as petroleum refining and large ships. The accompanying high temperature, high pressure, and highly corrosive environments pose higher challenges to the lubrication requirements of compressor equipment. Under high temperature, high pressure, and seawater corrosion conditions, lubricating oil is prone to deterioration due to insufficient performance, leading to the formation of carbon deposits, varnish, sludge, etc., which can corrode equipment, causing serious damage and affecting normal operation. Therefore, compressor oils used to lubricate compressor equipment in high temperature, high pressure, and highly corrosive environments need to possess excellent rust prevention, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, thermal stability, extreme pressure anti-wear properties, demulsification, and anti-foaming properties. On the other hand, traditional rust inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors (metal passivators), extreme pressure anti-wear agents, and other additives can easily produce antagonistic effects, affecting the performance of the compressor oil and causing instability, resulting in sediment and other impurities.

[0003] While existing technologies can improve the aforementioned properties of compressor oils to some extent, the degree of improvement remains limited, especially in terms of rust prevention, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance, where further improvement is needed. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a compressor oil additive composition that combines superior rust prevention, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, thermal stability, extreme pressure anti-wear properties, demulsification, and anti-foaming properties, while simultaneously addressing the precipitation problem caused by antagonistic effects between additives. Currently, there are no reported applications or related information regarding the addition of dual-ionic liquid additive compositions to compressor oils. Summary of the Invention

[0013] The extreme pressure anti-wear agent is at least one of triphenyl thiophosphate, butyltriphenyl thiophosphate, dialkyl dithiophosphate, and fatty phosphate amine salt; the light stabilizer is dimethyl sebacate.

[0014] The demulsifier is at least one of oil-soluble polyether DL32, LZ5957, and polyethyleneimine alkoxylate 9393; the antifoaming agent is at least one of methyl silicone oil T903, No. 1 composite antifoaming agent T921, and No. 2 composite antifoaming agent T922; and the diluent is PCL150SN.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.

[0020] The compressor oil additive composition of the present invention comprises the following components by mass percentage: 10-50% antioxidant, 5-30% diionic liquid, 5-20% extreme pressure anti-wear agent, 2-8% light stabilizer, 1-5% demulsifier, 1-5% antifoaming agent, and the balance being diluent. The sum of the mass percentages of the above components is 100%.

[0021] The antioxidants, by mass percentage, include: 30-50% amine antioxidants, 30-50% phenolic antioxidants, and 20-40% auxiliary antioxidants. The sum of the mass percentages of the above components is 100%. The combination of the three antioxidants in the specified proportions can give the lubricating oil better antioxidant properties.

[0022] Amine antioxidants, including at least one of octylbutyldiphenylamine, dioctyldiphenylamine, dinonyldiphenylamine, styrylated diphenylamine, and N,N'-sec-butyl-p-phenylene diamine, can significantly improve the antioxidant properties of lubricating oils.

[0024]

[0025] Where n is a positive integer from 12 to 18, the phenolic antioxidant with this structure has excellent antioxidant properties and can effectively complex metal ions, reducing the formation of carbon deposits, paint film and sludge. In addition, the antioxidant has low volatility, further reducing the volatility of the antioxidant at high temperatures.

[0026] The auxiliary antioxidants are pentaerythritol bis(diphosphite) and pentaerythritol tetra(3-lauryl thiopropionate), with the following structure. They have superior performance compared to traditional thioester antioxidants, and when used in combination with amine and phenolic antioxidants, they can significantly improve the thermal stability of lubricating oil.

[0028]

[0029] Extreme pressure anti-wear agents are at least one of triphenyl thiophosphate, butyltriphenyl thiophosphate, dialkyl dithiophosphate, and fatty phosphate amine salts. They can form a strong oil film on the metal surface, which can enhance extreme pressure anti-wear properties and reduce the coefficient of friction.

[0030] The light stabilizer is dimethyl sebacate, which has good compatibility with lubricating oil and can improve the thermal stability and weather resistance of lubricating oil, and reduce the tendency of lubricating oil to change color.

[0031] The demulsifier is at least one of oil-soluble polyether DL32, LZ5957, and polyethyleneimine alkoxylate 9393, which improves the demulsibility of lubricating oil by changing the oil-water interfacial tension.

[0032] The antifoaming agent is at least one of methyl silicone oil T903, No. 1 composite antifoaming agent T921, and No. 2 composite antifoaming agent T922, and is used to improve the antifoaming properties of lubricating oil.

[0034] The structure of ionic liquids is as follows:

[0035]

[0036] Where n is a positive integer between 12 and 18;

[0037] The bis-ionic liquid is a complex system of bisimidazole cations and bisphosphonate anions. Using this bis-ionic liquid to prepare lubricating oil additives can improve the rust prevention and corrosion resistance of the lubricating oil additives, passivate metal activity, and enhance the protective ability of lubricating oil for metals. At the same time, the bis-ionic liquid has a synergistic effect with antioxidants, improving the oxidation resistance of lubricating oil and reducing the formation of carbon deposits, varnish, and sludge. The C12-18 alkyl chains in the bis-ionic liquid can increase the solubility, ensuring that it dissolves in oil under both high and low temperature conditions, and has excellent solubility and compatibility.
