Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to lubricating oil compositions, and more particularly to a hydraulic retarder oil composition. Background Technology

[0002] Hydraulic retarders, as an important auxiliary braking device for vehicles, are widely used in commercial vehicles such as heavy-duty trucks and buses. They generate braking torque by agitating the working fluid. During this process, the working fluid absorbs and dissipates a large amount of kinetic energy, causing the oil temperature to rise rapidly in a very short time, often reaching over 160°C, and even momentarily exceeding 180°C. These extreme working conditions place extremely stringent requirements on the lubricating oil.

[0003] Currently, some hydraulic retarders on the market use engine oil or gear oil as their working medium. However, these oils have the following inherent defects: 1. Poor high-temperature corrosion resistance: Under continuous high temperatures, sulfur in the oil easily reacts with metal parts, especially copper, causing corrosion of copper parts and further catalyzing oil aging and deterioration; 2. Insufficient thermal oxidation stability: Under continuous high temperatures, base oil and additives are prone to oxidation and cracking, leading to increased oil viscosity, sludge and carbon deposits, clogging the fine oil passages and heat exchangers inside the retarder, resulting in decreased efficiency or even failure; 3. Short service life: Due to rapid oxidation and decay, frequent oil changes are required, increasing user maintenance costs and downtime. Therefore, developing a dedicated hydraulic retarder oil that can withstand long-term high temperatures, resist metal corrosion, reduce carbon and sludge buildup, and thus significantly extend oil change intervals and equipment life has significant practical significance and market value. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of this invention is to provide a long-life lubricant specifically designed for the harsh operating conditions of hydraulic retarders.

[0005] Technical solution: The hydraulic retarder oil composition of the present invention comprises the following components by weight percentage: Polyol esters 6-8%; metallocene polyalphaolefin mPAO 11-12%; composite additives 13.2-17%; antioxidants 0.6-1.0%; metal corrosion inhibitors 0.8-1.2%; pour point depressants 0.2-0.4%; hydrotreated base oil: balance.

[0007] Preferably, the metallocene polyalphaolefin mPAO has a kinematic viscosity of 150~350 mmHg at 100°C. 2 / s, more preferably, the kinematic viscosity at 100°C is 300 mm³ / s. 2 / s.

[0008] Preferably, the metal corrosion inhibitor is at least one selected from benzotriazole derivatives, alkylthiadiazoles, imidazoline derivatives, and N-acylsarcosine.

[0009] Preferably, the metal corrosion inhibitor is composed of an imidazoline derivative and N-acylsarcosine in a mass ratio of 1:0.6~1.4.

[0010] Preferably, the composite additive meets the technical specifications D1 in GB 11122-2025, including detergents and dispersants, antioxidants and corrosion inhibitors, anti-wear additives, antioxidants, rust inhibitors and friction modifiers.

[0011] Preferably, the antioxidant is at least one of amine antioxidants and phenolic antioxidants.

[0012] Preferably, the antioxidant is a combination of amine and phenolic antioxidants in a mass ratio of 3:5 to 2:1.

[0013] More preferably, the amine antioxidant is at least one of octyl diphenylamine, butyl diphenylamine, nonyl diphenylamine, and alkyl diphenylamine.

[0014] Further preferably, the phenolic antioxidant is a phenolic antioxidant, such as T501.

[0015] Preferably, the pour point depressant is of the polymethacrylate type.

[0016] Preferably, the hydrotreated base oil is at least one of Group II 500N, Group III 100N, and Group III 150N.

[0017] Beneficial Effects: Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following significant advantages: This invention inhibits the corrosion of copper metal components by compounding metal corrosion inhibitors, reduces the catalytic aging process of oil caused by corrosive metals, improves thermal oxidation stability, reduces sludge formation, and reduces the corrosiveness of oil to hydraulic retarder metal components under high-temperature conditions, thereby extending the service life of the oil to 300,000 kilometers. Simultaneously, it uses metallocene mPAO instead of traditional viscosity index improvers, reducing carbon deposit formation under high-temperature conditions. Attached Figure Description
