Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a lubricating oil, and more particularly to a lubricating oil composition with excellent extreme pressure anti-wear properties and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing demand for renewable energy driven by low-carbon and environmental protection needs, wind power, as a clean and sustainable energy source, is rapidly emerging and being widely applied globally. In my country, wind farms are mostly concentrated in the frigid northeast, northwest, and coastal areas, where winters are extremely harsh, with strong winds, large temperature differences, and high levels of salt spray. The gears and bearings in the main gearbox of wind turbine generators share the same lubrication system, making them prone to surface wear and micropitting. Micropitting can cause surface cracking, forming micro-points with a diameter of less than 10 micrometers. Under the combined action of these micro-points, the surface cracks are further expanded. A single micro-point can range in size from 5 to 20 micrometers, with a maximum depth of 10 micrometers. Although these micro-points appear small, they can reduce the meshing of the gear teeth, and in severe cases, lead to gear breakage.

[0003] Therefore, improving the extreme pressure anti-wear properties of lubricating oil compositions for wind power transmission systems and preventing micropitting has been a hot research topic for researchers in this field. Developing lubricating oil compositions for wind power transmission systems with excellent extreme pressure anti-wear properties, corrosion resistance, thermal oxidation stability, and low-temperature fluidity is a research objective in this field.

Compared to the alkyl phosphonates used in Examples 1 and 2, these methods require stricter control measures and also pose adverse effects on human health and the environment. Comparative Example 1 involved the addition of triethylamine, resulting in the formation of the byproduct methylphosphonamide, which affected the reaction yield. Comparative Example 2 generated HCl waste gas, causing corrosion of the reaction pipeline, and also produced the byproduct 4-methoxytoluene, further impacting the yield. Comparative Example 3 also generated HCl waste gas, causing corrosion of the reaction pipeline, and exhibited a very low conversion rate at room temperature. The method for preparing alkyl phosphonates proposed in this invention can be carried out at room temperature, and the required raw material, alkyl phosphonates, is simple and readily available. Furthermore, it offers advantages such as high conversion rate, strong reaction selectivity, high product purity, and a green, environmentally friendly, and energy-saving process.

[0108] Examples and comparative examples of lubricating oil compositions

[0109] According to the formulation composition in Table 1, the lubricating oil compositions in Examples I-1 to I-6 and Comparative Examples DI-1 to DI-5 were prepared by stirring at 50°C for 4 hours. TCP (Tianmen Hengchang Chemical Co., Ltd.) and T304 (Zibo Huihua Chemical Co., Ltd.) were used as comparative agents.

[0112] Storage stability test, PDSC test, four-ball extreme pressure bearing test, four-ball friction test and copper strip corrosion test were conducted on the examples and comparative examples of the lubricating oil compositions, respectively.

[0113] The PDSC test is a differential scanning calorimetry test performed under pressure. The testing instrument is a TA5000 DSC instrument from TA Instruments, USA. The test conditions are: oxygen pressure 3.5 MPa and oxygen flow rate 100 mL / min.

[0114] The load-bearing and anti-wear properties were evaluated using a four-ball testing machine. The load-bearing performance test was conducted in accordance with the GB / T3142-2019 standard. The oil was subjected to a four-ball friction test at a load of 40 kg, a time of 1 h, and an oil temperature of 75 °C.

[0115] The copper sheet corrosion test involves immersing a polished copper sheet in oil at 100°C for 6 hours. After the test, the copper sheet is removed, and the corrosion level is determined based on its color. The best level is 1a, and the worst level is 4C.

[0116] The test results of the above experiment are shown in Table 2.
