Description

[Technical field]

In this specification, the term "mixture composition for a refrigerator" refers to a composition obtained by mixing a "refrigerant" with a "refrigerating machine oil composition." [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, with the increase in speed, pressure, and size of industrial machinery, machine elements such as compressors, hydraulic machines, turbines, gear elements, and bearings are being operated under more severe conditions. Lubricating oil compositions used in these machines are required to have lubricating performance that can sufficiently guarantee the machine life over a long period of time even under severe conditions.

[0003] Meanwhile, various additives are blended into lubricating oil compositions for the purpose of improving lubrication performance. Among them, tricresyl phosphate (hereinafter also referred to as "TCP") has been conventionally used as an additive for improving wear resistance. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a lubricating oil reinforcer in which a predetermined amount of TCP is blended as a phosphorus-based extreme pressure agent in a base oil consisting of a mineral oil, a synthetic oil, or a mixture of these.

For example, the description "preferably 10 to 90, more preferably 30 to 60" can be combined with the "preferable lower limit (10)" and the "more preferable upper limit (60)" to form "10 to 60." Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, a numerical range of "lower limit value to upper limit value" described in this specification means not less than the lower limit value and not more than the upper limit value.

The first phosphorus compound (B) is at least one selected from the group consisting of a first phosphite (B1) represented by the following general formula (1) and a second phosphite (B2) represented by the following general formula (2).

[0017] In order to meet recent demands for refrigerator oil compositions, the present inventors have conducted extensive research into additives capable of improving the anti-wear properties of refrigerator oil compositions even under conditions that are more severe than before. First, we investigated TCP, which has been used as an additive to improve wear resistance, and found that it did not provide sufficient wear resistance improvement. Next, we investigated triphenylphosphine oxide (hereinafter also referred to as "TPPO"), and found that it did not provide sufficient wear resistance improvement, just like TCP. From these results, we thought that if phosphate esters such as TCP or organic phosphine oxide compounds such as TPPO were used, sufficient wear resistance improvement would not be obtained. As a result of further intensive research, the present inventors have found that the primary phosphite (B1) represented by the above general formula (1) and the secondary phosphite (B2) represented by the above general formula (2) exhibit a remarkable effect of improving abrasion resistance.

[0184] [Examples 1 to 29 and Comparative Examples 1 to 12] Refrigerating machine oil compositions having the compositions shown in Tables 1 to 4 were prepared, and their wear resistance was evaluated by the Falex wear test described below. The evaluation results are shown in Tables 1 to 4. The units of values ​​for the blended compositions in Tables 1 to 4 are "mass %." In addition, in Tables 1 to 4, the compound name of the primary phosphite (B1)-4 is expressed as "triphenyl phosphite having three phenyl groups substituted with branched alkyl groups."

[0185] <Falex abrasion test> The following pins and blocks were prepared: Pin: SAE-3135 Block: AISI-1137 The following tests were carried out using a Falex testing machine in accordance with ASTM D2670. The pin and block were set in a Falex tester, and 300 g of the refrigeration oil composition to be evaluated was placed in the test container, which was filled with 30 g of R1234yf as a refrigerant, and the test container was sealed.Then, the rotation speed was set to 0.09 m / s, the oil temperature was set to 60°C, and the load was set to 1,779 N, and the test container was operated for 60 minutes, and the total wear amount (mg) of the pin and block was measured. This Falex test was conducted under harsher conditions than usual, with higher oil temperatures and loads than usual. The evaluation criteria were as follows: The smaller the amount of wear (mg), the more excellent the wear resistance. Rating S (pass): 2.0 mg or less Grade A (pass): Over 2.0mg and up to 2.5mg Grade B (pass): over 2.5 mg and under 5.0 mg Grade C (fail): 5.0 mg or more

[0186] [Table 1]

[0187] [Table 2]

[0188] [Table 3]

[0189] [Table 4]

[0190] The following can be seen from Tables 1 to 4. It is clear that all of the refrigerating machine oil compositions of Examples 1 to 29 are excellent in wear resistance. In contrast, it is seen that the refrigerant oil compositions in which tricresyl phosphate, which belongs to the phosphoric acid compound (C1) among the second phosphorus compounds (C), was blended without blending the first phosphorus compound (B), as in Comparative Examples 1, 2, 7, and 8, had inferior wear resistance. In addition, it is found that the refrigerant oil compositions in which triphenylphosphine oxide, which belongs to the organic phosphine oxide compound (C2) among the second phosphorus compounds (C), is blended without blending the first phosphorus compound (B), as in Comparative Examples 3 and 4, have inferior wear resistance. Moreover, it is understood that the refrigerating machine oil compositions in which trioleyl phosphite, which is a phosphite ester not belonging to the primary phosphorus compounds (B), is blended, such as in Comparative Examples 5 and 9, are inferior in wear resistance. Moreover, it is understood that the refrigerating machine oil compositions in which trisnonylphenyl phosphite, which is a phosphite ester not belonging to the primary phosphorus compound (B), is blended, such as in Comparative Examples 6 and 10, are inferior in wear resistance. In addition, it is found that refrigerant oil compositions containing neither the first phosphorus-based compound (B) nor the second phosphorus-based compound (C), but containing tetraphenyl-m-phenylene bisphosphate, a compound that does not belong to either the first phosphorus-based compound (B) or the second phosphorus-based compound (C), as in Comparative Examples 11 and 12, have poor wear resistance.

[0191] <Autoclave test> An autoclave vessel (volume: 200 mL) was charged with Fe, Cu, and Al as catalysts, and further charged with a mixture of 20 g of the refrigerating machine oil composition of Example 19 and Comparative Examples 6, 11, and 12 and 20 g of a refrigerant (R1234yf), respectively, and also charged with 2,000 ppm by mass of moisture. After maintaining the vessel at 175°C for 336 hours, the acid value (mgKOH / g) was evaluated. The acid value was measured by indicator photometric titration method (see Appendix 1 of the JIS standard) in accordance with JIS K2501:2003. The evaluation criteria were as follows: The smaller the acid value, the more excellent the thermal stability. Rating A (pass): 0.5 mgKOH / g or less Grade B (fail): Over 0.5 mgKOH / g and up to 1.0 mgKOH / g Rating C (fail): Over 1.0 mgKOH / g

[0192] The results of the autoclave test are shown in Table 5.

[0193] [Table 5]

[0194] The results shown in Table 5 reveal the following: It is clear that the refrigerator oil composition shown in Example 19 has excellent thermal stability. In contrast, when trisnonylphenyl phosphite, a phosphite ester not corresponding to the primary phosphorus compound (B), is used as in Comparative Example 6, or tetraphenyl-m-phenylene bisphosphate, a compound not corresponding to either the primary phosphorus compound (B) or the secondary phosphorus compound (C), is used as in Comparative Examples 11 and 12, it is found that the thermal stability is poor.
