METAL WORKING FLUID COMPOSITION COMPRISING MODIFIED MALEATED NATURAL OILS, SALTS AND USE THEREOFFIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present application provides a metal working fluid composition comprising a reaction product of a maleated natural oil; a functionalized or unfunctionalized moiety selected from the group consisting of hydrophobic moieties, hydrophilic moieties; a base and combinations thereof.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Modified natural oils can be incorporated into a wide variety of compositions. Such compositions include, but are not limited to, personal care (e.g., hair care, sun care, skin care, oral care), adhesives, coatings, paints, electronics, household, industrial and institutional (HI&I) compositions, inks, membranes, metal working fluids, oilfield chemicals, plastics and plasticizers, textiles, industrial products, biocides, pharmaceuticals / nutritionals, and agrochemical compositions.

[0003] Natural oils are useful for synthesizing renewable compounds such as polymers, plastics, and plasticizers, which compounds are useful in a variety of agricultural compositions. A difficulty with utilizing natural oils is that they are blends of triglycerides containing varying degrees of unsaturated groups, which unsaturated groups are relatively unreactive. To make these natural oils reactive, these unsaturated groups are generally chemically modified to make them reactive. For example, these unsaturated groups can be reacted to provide epoxide functional groups or succinic anhydride functional groups. Despite these chemical modifications, the maleated natural oils can still exhibit limited properties such as insolubility or non-dispersibility in water and alcohols. Accordingly, there is a need for further modified maleated natural oils which do not exhibit the limited properties of maleated natural oils.

[0004] Metalworking fluids (MWFs) play an essential role in the machining and metalworking industry. The primary function of these fluids is to reduce friction and wear, cool and lubricate the cutting tool, and remove chips and other debris from the cutting zone. For many years, the most common fluids used for these purposes were mineral oil-based fluids, but in recent years, there hasbeen a growing interest in the use of vegetable oils as an alternative. Vegetable oils are an attractive option for several reasons.

M. Musa in chapter 3 page 166, published in Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.

[0009] US Patent 2754306A describes a reaction of soybean oil, maleic anhydride and iso-octyl alcohol to provide an improved plasticizer for nitrocellulose compositions.

Kusefoglu, Richard Wool published in Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Barcelona, Volume 90, Issue 1, Pages 197-202, 2003.

[0013] PCT Application 2005071050A1 describes a metalworking fluid comprising oil in water emulsion from a reaction product of maleic anhydride and a triglyceride oil from a plant or landanimal and further reacted with water, Group TA and TIA metals, ammonium hydroxide, various amines, alkanolamines, polyols, alkoxylated alkanolamines, poly (alkylene oxide)s, or polyamines or mixtures.

[0014] U.S. patent 9920276 B2 describes a reaction product of maleated soybean oil with the reaction product of a polyalkanoic or polyalkenoic acid as lubricants in metal processing including cutting, grinding or plastic working.

[0015] Vegetable-based lubricants are gaining attention as an ecofriendly alternative to petroleum-based lubricants due to their renewability, biodegradability, and lower toxicity. Many researchers are exploring the use of various vegetable oils as potential candidates for metalworking fluids. Overall, there is still much work to be done to fully realize the potential of vegetable oils as a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to petroleum-based lubricants in the application of metal working fluids.

[0039] Natural oils are abundant, inexpensive, and are derived from sustainable sources. Natural oils are useful for synthesizing renewable compounds such as polymers, plastics, and plasticizers, which compounds are useful in a variety of compositions. A difficultly with utilizing natural oils is that they are blends of triglycerides containing varying degrees of unsaturated groups, which unsaturated groups are relatively unreactive. To make these natural oils reactive, these unsaturated groups are generally chemically modified to make them reactive. For example, these unsaturated groups can be reacted with maleates to provide epoxide functional groups and succinic anhydride functional groups. Despite these chemical modifications, the maleated natural oils can still exhibit limited properties such as insolubility or non-dispersibility in water and alcohols. Accordingly,there is a need for further modified maleated natural oils which do not exhibit the limited properties of maleated natural oils.

[0078] The maleation reaction in natural oil can occur under heating in three different ways. The first one is known as “Ene” reaction (reaction between an allylic moiety and an enophile in a pericyclic reaction), obtaining a triglyceride structure with anhydride moieties (succinic anhydride). The second one is a radical addition, which consumes a double bond in the fatty acid, incorporating the succinic anhydride into the natural oil structure. The final reaction is also a radical addition that incorporates the maleic anhydride into the natural oil structure without consuming C=C bonds (fatty acid chain and maleic anhydride); this reaction occurs due to abstraction of hydrogen atoms from two alkenes groups.

[0299] Corrosion: Iron chip corrosion testing was performed to address the corrosion resistance benefits of maleated oil. For the test, metal working fluid concentrates were diluted to 5, 4, and 3 wt% with 100 ppm CaCO3 hardwater. A filter paper lined petri dish is filled with iron chips, which were submerged in the different MWF dilution. After 2 hours, the petri dishes were decanted, and left exposed to air in a temperature and humidity-controlled room overnight. Iron chips were removed from the petri dishes and the filter paper was inspected for rust. Beneficial corrosion resistance was displayed by samples that had the least rust at the lowest MWF dilution weight percent.

[0300] MWF concentrates were prepared with 4.8 - 5.1 wt% additive and analyzed for corrosion resistance (Table 1 & 2). Figure 1 shows that improved corrosion resistance can be observed for the maleated oil with base (Example S- Form#2), Maleated oil with hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups (Example Cl-Form#3), and Form#8 vs a naphthenic oil control (Form#l). Figure 3 displays corrosion data for another synthetic MWF with various maleated oil derivatives. Form#10, 13, and 17 show matching corrosion performance to the control, Form#9, a naphthenic base oil.

[0301] Lubricity: Lubricity of the maelated oil additives was measured by Microtap torque. Microtap torque is performed by measuring the force required to tap a predrilled hole in a test alloy in the presence of a MWF. Microtap MWFs are typically prepared by diluting a MWF to 10 wt% in either deionized water or synthetic hardwater. The lower the force required to tap the hole, the better the lubricant.

[0302] MWF concentrates were prepared with 4.8-5.1 wt% additive and analyzed for lubricity on 1018 low carbon steel (Table 1 & 2). The control MWF contained naphthenic oil as the additive (Form#l), which had the highest torque and lowest lubricity. Improved lubricity can be observed for maleated oils modified with 2 equivalents of linear alkane (Form#7) and maleated oil modified with 2.0 equivalents of a heterocycle (Form#8) for Microtap torque due to the low torque values(Figure 2). Figure 4 displays various maleated oil derivates with torque values lower than the control napthenic base oil (Form#9). Each oil exhibits a -8-12% reduction in torque vs Form#9.

[0303] Emulsification: The emulsification behavior of the maleated oil derivatives were tested by finding the minimum amount of emulsifier required to create microemulsions, or clear solutions. To test, all ingredients were incorporated into the metalworking fluid except the emulsifier. Emulsifier was subsequently added dropwise until the solutions turned transparent.

[0304] MWF concentrates were prepared with 5 wt% additive (Table 3) and analyzed for emulsification behavior. Samples prepared with malaeted oils exhibited the need for far less emulsifier vs the control (Figure 5). The best performance was maleated oil with base, Form#21, which required no additional emulsifier to generate a clear, transparent solution.
