Definitions
- TITLE METHOD FOR OPERATING INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH A FUEL COMPOSITION
- This invention relates to a methodology to overcome field problems that can prevent motor vehicles having high performance, multi-valve, low friction, internal combustion engines from restarting after short-distance, low speed driving conditions.
- the methodology comprises operating the engine with a fuel composition containing a fuel additive.
- the methodology further comprises optionally running the engine in a clean-up cycle with the fuel composition containing an aftermarket treatment level of the fuel additive before returning to normal service. DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART
- hydrocarbon fuels including gasoline and diesel fuel
- hydrocarbon fuels generally contain numerous deposit-forming substances that tend to form deposits in the fuel system of an internal combustion engine on and around intake valves, fuel injectors and combustion chambers. These deposits can adversely effect the performance of the engine in the areas of driveability seen in terms of stalling and acceleration, fuel economy, and exhaust emissions of regulated substances such as hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide.
- a variety of fuel additives or deposit control additives to prevent or control such deposits are known in the art.
- Hydrocarbyl-substituted amines and succinimides having the hydrocarbyl group derived from polybutene are well known in the art as fuel additives that aid in decreasing deposits in intake valves and port fuel injectors of internal combustion engines. However, they have been considered to contribute to, rather then prevent, combustion chamber deposits at dose rates (50-1,000 ppm) typically used to control intake valve deposits.
- U.S. Patent No. 6,136,051 teaches that relative to a base fuel without deposit control additives that low dosages of hydrocarbyl-substituted amines increase combustion chamber deposits (CCD) and that higher dosages (>1,200 ppm) of the amines give better CCD control.
- Polyetheramine fuel additives are also well known in the art for the prevention and control of engine deposits.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,191,537 discloses a fuel composition comprising a major portion of hydrocarbons boiling in the gasoline range and from 30 to 2,000 ppm of a hydrocarbyl polyoxyalkylene aminocarbamate having a molecular weight from about 600 to 10,000 and at least one basic nitrogen > atom. These fuel compositions are taught to maintain the cleanliness of intake systems without contributing to combustion chamber deposits.
- U.S. Patent No. 6,217,624 teaches, as with hydrocarbyl-substituted amines in U.S. Patent No. 6,136,051 above, that polyetheramines at low dosages of 300 ppm also contribute to combustion chamber deposits even though intake valve deposits are prevented while at higher dosages (>2,050 ppm) both intake valve and combustion chamber deposits can be prevented.
- U. S. Patent No. 5,407,453 teaches the use of a composition comprising an alkoxy alcohol, an aliphatic alcohol, a petroleum distillate, a fatty acid, a nitrogen base, a hydrocarbyl amine, and water can be used to clean up combustion chamber deposits formed in an internal combustion engine. Mechanical means such as running an engine at high speeds under full load conditions are also know to clear engine of all deposits. Mechanical methods of removing engine deposits are well known to those skilled in the art.

- Butylene oxide (29.01bs, 13.16 kg, 182.75 moles) is added over 6-10 hour time period at a rate such that the reactor temperature does not drop below 121 °C or exceed 132°C and the reactor's pressure does not exceed 80 psi (in Example A pressures given in psi units are gauge values).
- the temperature is maintained at 126.7°C for 2 hours.
- the reactor's pressure is allowed to equilibrate and decrease to less than 10 psi.
- the reactor pressure is vented slowly to zero psi.
- the product mixture is cooled to 82°C while it is vacuum stripped. The vacuum is relieved with nitrogen. Solid magnesium silicate (1.2 lbs) is added to neutralize the reaction product.
- the product mixture is stirred for one hour.
- the product is cooled to 49- 60°C.
- the reaction product is filtered until its residual potassium level is 10 ppm or less.
- the product has a hydroxyl number (ASTM E326-96) of 34.5, a viscosity at 100°C (ASTM D445) of 21.3 cSt, and a specific gravity (ASTM D4052) of 0.9614 g/cc.
- Product from Part A (3.8 moles) is introduced to a 5-liter 4-necked round bottom flask equipped with a thermometer, overhead stirrer, condenser, and a dropping funnel. A few drops of a solution of 45 wt % KOH in water are added to catalyze the reaction. The contents of the flask are heated to 30°C with stirring. Acrylonitrile (271.3 g, 5.1 mol) is charged to the dropping funnel, and approximately 50 ml aliquots of acrylonitrile are added over a couple of minutes per aliquot and at about 15 to 20 minute intervals between aliquots in such a manner that maintains the temperature at less than 40°C.
- Raney Nickel catalyst (40 g, 1.3 wt %, based on ether nitrile) is washed 3 times with 500 ml aliquots of isopropanol. In the first two washings, the solvent is decanted off and fresh solvent added. After suspending the catalyst in the third aliquot of isopropanol, the suspended catalyst is added to a two-gallon autoclave reactor. The ether nitrile prepared in Part B above (3200 g, 3.5 moles) is then added to the reactor, and the reactor contents are stirred. A vacuum of 0.84 atmosphere pressure is applied to the system, and the contents of the reactor are heated to 120°C.
- the isopropanol and any residual water is removed by distillation over two hours until no condensate is seen forming on the condenser.
- the reactor is sealed. Hydrogen is then added to a pressure of 10 psi and the reactor is vented. The hydrogen purge and venting are repeated. Hydrogen is again added to a pressure of 10 psi and the contents of the reactor cooled over a few minutes to 70°C. The temperature of the reactor contents is increased to 135°C (pressure increases to 160 psig) over approximately 30 minutes. Hydrogen is added to maintain the pressure at 320 psi and the temperature is maintained at 135°C to 140°C for 32 hours.
- the reactor contents are cooled to 120 °C, vented, and a vacuum of 0.84 atmosphere pressure is applied.
- the reactor contents are vacuum distilled for two hours, cooled to 50 °C, and then drained from the reactor and filtered.
- the product (2950 grams) is tridecyloxy(butoxy) x -n-propyleneamine wherein x is a number in the range of 12 to 30 with about 85 to 90 % of x being in the range of 18 to 22.
- the product has a nitrogen content of 0.71 % by weight and a total base number of 28.5.
- combustion chamber deposits were intentionally accumulated in an engine per a deposit buildup cycle as detailed in Table 2.
- the engine with a buildup of deposits, was then run on 70 liters (one tank full) of standard gasoline dosed with 3,000 ppm of the polyetheramine of Example A using a clean-up cycle as detailed in Table 3.
- the engine test evaluation results are set forth in Table 1.
- Table 4 details a second deposit buildup cycle, greatly reduced in duration, which was developed.
- Table 5 contains results of engine restart evaluations for several additive types using both deposit buildup cycles or tests and both bulk and aftermarket treatments of the fuel.
- the high speed clean-up consisted of running the engine, a M52 6-cylinder in-line BMW gasoline engine, for 20 minutes at 6000 rpm under a full load with a standard gasoline containing conventional additives.
- Fuel used during deposit buildup cycle was a standard gasoline containing conventional additives, and deposit buildup cycle was run per the procedure of Table 2.
- the vehicle can be returned to normal service or preferably the vehicle can be driven over a short clean-up cycle to remove a buildup of combustion chamber deposits.
- a nitrogen-containing detergent of the present invention such as the polyetheramine of Example A
- the vehicle can be returned to normal service or preferably the vehicle can be driven over a short clean-up cycle to remove a buildup of combustion chamber deposits.
- a specific clean-up cycle that can be used is detailed in Table 3. The clean-up cycle is broken down into three cycles. Cycle 1 is
- 60 Hour Deposit Buildup Test A shortened version of the 625 hour deposit buildup was developed to reduce the cost and time of testing for engine start-failures due to combustion chamber deposits.
- the engine was cleared of deposits by running it in a high speed mechanical clean-up at 6,000 rpm under full load for 20 minutes. Following this mechanical clean-up the engine was run on a standard fuel, normally containing additives, in a 60 hour deposit buildup test.
- the 60 hour deposit buildup test consisted of a 4.5 minute engine cycle detailed in Table 4 that was repeated 800 times. This cycle is the same cycle that is used in the CEC M102E Inlet Valve Deposit Test (CEC F-05-A-93).
- the 60 hour deposit buildup test consumes about 250 liters of fuel which is similar to the amount of fuel consumed in the 625 hour deposit buildup test.
- Table 5 Detailed in Table 5 are engine restart evaluations that were run on several additive types using both bulk and aftermarket treatments of the fuel and both the 60 hour and 625 hour deposit buildup tests. The two deposit buildup tests appear to be in agreement on indicating the engine restart performance provided by the additives. Examples 1-4 indicate that an untreated fuel or a fuel treated with a conventional additive does not prevent engine start-failures. Examples 5-12 are embodiments of the invention which prevent engine start-failures. Although Example 5 gave a fail result, it was on the third attempt in the engine start-failure sequence after two successful attempts so the fail can be viewed as a marginal fail. Table 5
- Engine restart evaluations were done on a 6-cylinder, 4 valves per cylinder, multipoint injection gasoline engine typical of an engine that had demonstrated combustion chamber deposit related engine start-failure in the field.
- the base fuel was either a major European commercial fuel or a CEC test reference fuel.
- the evaluation procedure for Examples 1-10 consisted of a) a high speed mechanical clean-up by running the engine at 6000 rpm and full load for 20 minutes, b) the 625 or 60 hour deposit buildup as described hereinabove, and c) the engine start-failure sequence as described above.
- Example 11-12 The evaluation procedure for Examples 11-12 consisted of a) the high speed mechanical clean-up, b) the 625 or 60 hour deposit buildup, c) the engine clean-up cycle described above, and d) the engine start-failure sequence.
- the base fuel was used without an additive throughout the entire evaluation procedure.
- the base fuel contained a bulk treatment level (about 100-1,000 ppm) of the additive throughout the entire evaluation procedure.
- the base fuel contained a bulk treatment level of additive A throughout the entire evaluation procedure and contained an aftermarket treatment level (about 1,000 to 10,000 ppm) of additive C during the engine clean-up cycle.
- Addive A consisted of conventional additives for gasoline at a bulk treatment level.
- Additive Bi consisted of a) a Mannich reaction product at 135 ppm by mass from 1000 molecular weight polyisobutylene (PIB) alkylated ortho-cresol, formaldehyde and ethylenediamine, b) a polyether fluidizer, c) a corrosion inhibitor and d) a demulsifier.
- Additive B 2 consisted of a) a Mannich reaction product at 176 ppm by mass from 1000 mol. wt.
- Additive B 3 consisted of a) a Mannich reaction product at 168 ppm by mass from 1000 mol. wt. PLB alkylated phenol, formaldehyde and dimethylamine, b) a polyether fluidizer, c) a corrosion inhibitor, and d) a demulsifier.
- Additive C was the polyetheramine of Example A described hereinabove at 400 ppm by mass.
