Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition for high-temperature applications.

BACKGROUND ART

There are a lot of sliding portions such as a chain, a gear and a bearing inside a tenter used for manufacturing an optical film, a food-packaging film, a solar panel film or the like. Since a lubricating oil used in such sliding portions is exposed to high temperatures, an amount of evaporation of the lubricating oil significantly affects a life time of a device. In other words, under high temperatures, since the lubricating oil loses an inherent viscosity to form a thin film, it is necessary to restrain the amount of evaporation of the lubricating oil in order to keep lubricity thereof.
Accordingly, in order to restrain the amount of evaporation, a high-molecular and highly viscous lubricating oil has been used for high-temperature applications.
However, such a lubricating oil causes a large power loss although having a small amount of evaporation, which makes overall performance of the lubricating oil unfavorable. Moreover, when such a lubricating oil is exposed to high temperatures while forming a thin film, the lubricating oil becomes solid though a large amount of residue remains. Thus, the lubricating oil not only loses characteristics as a liquid but also blocks a flow of the lubricating oil in a form of a solid sludge, which causes a poor lubrication of the sliding portions. Although such a disadvantage can be simply solved by increasing the amount of the lubricating oil in use, such a solution is not favorable in terms of costs and an environmental aspect. Consequently, as the lubricating oil used under high temperatures, a lubricating oil whose evaporation amount under high temperatures is restrained and whose fluidity is kept for a long time has been demanded.
Moreover, in the above tenter, since scattering of the lubricating oil on a product is extremely disfavored, reduction of the amount of the lubricating oil in use has also been demanded.
Accordingly, as such a lubricating oil for high-temperature applications, there has been proposed a lubricating oil composition that contains a polyol ester synthetic oil and a diphenylamine derivative having a C₁₂-C₇₂ fatty acid and/or an aryl alkyl group having a number average molecular weight of 400 to 800 (see Patent Literature 1).

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION

However, even in the lubricating oil composition disclosed in Patent Literature 1, the lubricating oil does not always exhibit sufficient characteristics under high temperatures. For instance, the lubricating oil composition may turn sludge under high temperatures to cause an oil path to be clogged.
In the above tenter, a resin (engineering plastics) is occasionally used in the sliding portion in order to prevent wear of the sliding portion and simplify maintenance thereof.
However, use of a lubricating oil unsuitable to the resin may cause troubles such as a poor lubricity or breakage of the sliding portion, which is caused by oil film breakage, or an increase in scattering of the lubricating oil to the surroundings, which is caused by an increase in the amount of the lubricating oil to be used.
An object of the invention is to provide a lubricating oil composition for high-temperature applications, in which, under high temperatures and in a thin film, an amount of evaporation of the lubricating oil composition is restrained, fluidity thereof is kept for a long time, and lubricity thereof in a contact portion between a resin and a metal is excellent.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENT(S)

A lubricating oil composition for high-temperature applications according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention is provided by blending a component (A) that is an aromatic ester and a component (B) that is a poly-alpha-olefin having a viscosity index of 140 or more. The invention will be described below in detail.

Component (A)

The component (A) of the lubricating oil composition for high-temperature applications in the exemplary embodiment (hereinafter, referred to as "the composition") is the aromatic ester and corresponds to a base oil of the composition.
Examples of the aromatic ester as the component (A) are preferably a pyromellitate ester and a trimellitate ester. Among the above examples, the pyromellitate ester is particularly preferable.
As the pyromellitate ester, a pyromellitate tetraester represented by a formula (1) below is preferably used.
In the pyromellitate tetraester represented by the formula (1), all functional groups of R¹ to R⁴ are hydrocarbyl groups, which may be mutually the same or different. Each of the hydrocarbyl groups are preferably an alkyl group having 6 to 16 carbon atoms, more preferably 6 to 10 carbon atoms, in terms of evaporativity restraint and fluidity.
Examples of the pyromellitate tetraester represented by the formula (1) include tetra-n-octyl pyromellitate, tetra-3,5,5-trimethylhexyl pyromellitate, tetra-undecyl pyromellitate, and tetraisostearyl pyromellitate. The alkyl group preferably has a linear structure in terms of evaporativity restraint.
A blending rate of the component (A) in the composition is preferably in a range from 10 mass% to 95 mass% of a total amount of the composition, more preferably in a range from 30 mass% to 80 mass%. When the blending rate falls within the above range, the composition is excellent in a balance between evaporativity restraint and fluidity.
In the above range, when the aromatic ester of the component (A) is a pyromellitate ester or a trimellitate ester, the blending rate is particularly preferably 80 mass% or less of the total amount of the composition.

Component (B)

The component (B) of the composition is a poly-alpha-olefin (hereinafter, also referred as PAO) having a viscosity index of 140 or more. When PAO having a viscosity index of 140 or more is blended, an oil film breakage on a resin surface is restrained while an evaporation amount is restrained, so that a surface pressure at which a resin is broken (hereinafter, referred to as a breakage surface pressure) can be improved. The viscosity index is preferably 145 or more, more preferably 150 or more. Note that the viscosity index can be measured in accordance with JIS K 2283.
PAO (the component (B)) having a viscosity index of 140 or more is preferably exemplified by PAO manufactured using a metallocene catalyst.
PAO is a polymer (oligomer) of an alpha-olefin. As PAO, such an alpha-olefin oligomer can be used as it is, or can be used after hydrogenation. The alpha-olefin in a form of a monomer preferably has 6 to 20 carbon atoms in terms of the viscosity index and evaporativity.

PAO is preferably a dimer, trimer, tetramer and pentamer of the alpha-olefin in terms of a low evaporativity and energy-saving. However, the number of carbon atoms, the blending rate and a polymerization degree of the alpha-olefin are adjustable depending on desired characteristics. As a polymerization catalyst of the alpha-olefin, a metallocene catalyst is used in terms of a low evaporativity and energy-saving.
For hydrogenating the oligomer, a typical nickel catalyst such as sponge nickel and nickel diatomite and a noble metal catalyst such as palladium activated carbon or ruthenium activated carbon are preferable.

When the blending rate falls within this range, since an oil film breakage on a contact portion between a resin and a metal is restrained while an evaporation amount is restrained, a breakage surface pressure of the composition can be improved.

Component (C)

The composition is preferably further blended with a thickener as a component (C).

Among the above, polybutene is preferable since the composition blended with polybutene can be effectively prevented from dropping off a chain and a gear even under high temperatures.
Polybutene is exemplified by a mixture of polyisobutylene and poly-n-butene formed by polymerization of olefins having 4 carbon atoms, preferably having a mass average molecular weight (Mw) of 1000 to 3000. Polybutene or polyisobutylene having a mass average molecular weight (Mw) of 1300 to 2500 is particularly preferable.

A kinematic viscosity at 100 degrees C of the component (C) in the composition is preferably 100 mm²/s or more.
A blending rate of the component (C) in the composition is preferably 50 mass% or less of the total amount of the composition, more preferably 30 mass% or less.

(2) Evaluation Method

The above sample oils were evaluated according to the following method. Results are shown in Table 1.

Thin Film Evaporation Test

Evaporation Rate

A container and a thermostat air bath for the thermal stability test of lubricating oils (JIS K 2540) were used. A sample oil (1 g) was put in the container and was left to stand still for 20 hours or 40 hours at 230 degrees C. Subsequently, an evaporation amount of the sample oil was measured. The evaporation amount was divided by the original amount of the sample oil, and the obtained value was represented in percentage to provide an evaporation rate (mass%). Note that air was arranged to flow into the thermostat air bath at a flow rate of 10 L/hr during heating.

Fluidity

In the above test, after calculating the evaporation rate, the container was inclined by 45 degrees. Fluidity of the residual oil (thin film residue) was evaluated based on the following scale.

A: The residual oil does not adhere and drops off the container within 15 minutes.
B: A part of the residual oil adheres while another part thereof drops off the container within 15 minutes.
C: The residual oil adheres and does not drop off the container even after the elapse of 15 minutes.

Friction/Wear Test

The friction test for the sample oils was conducted using a pin-on-disk wear tester (in accordance with JIS K7128) under the following conditions.

1) Test Piece

Pin material: 5.0-mm diameter, 8.0-mm height, polyether ketone (PEK) (manufactured by Victrex PLC)
Disc material: 60.0-mm diameter, 5.0-mm thickness, CrMo steel,

2) Sliding speed: 700 m/min
3) Surface pressure: started from 0.5 MPa and increased by 0.5 MPa
4) Temperature: 160 degrees C
5) Measurement method: a test pin was slid on the test piece and a surface pressure (MPa) at which the test pin was broken was obtained.

Kinematic Viscosity

A kinematic viscosity at 40 degrees C of each of the lubricating oil compositions was measured by a method in accordance with JIS K2283.

Evaluation Result

From the results of Table 1, in all the sample oils of Examples 1 to 5 according to the invention, lubricity and wear resistance at high temperatures are, of course, excellent and the amount of evaporation is restrained in a thin film and under high temperatures while fluidity is kept for a long time. Accordingly, by using the lubricating oil composition for high-temperature applications according to the invention, a life time and a maintenance interval of a high thermal device (e.g., a chain and a bearing driven in an oven) can be prolonged. Moreover, reduction of power consumption required for operating the high thermal device can contribute to cost saving and energy saving.
Since a typical PAO is used in place of the component B in Comparative 1, the evaporativity is high and the breakage surface pressure is low. In Comparative 2, the evaporativity is low due to a high blending rate of the component (A) (pyromellitate), but the breakage surface pressure is low since the component (B) is not contained. In Comparative 3, the evaporativity is low due to a high blending rate of the component (A) (trimellitate), but the breakage surface pressure is low since the component (B) is not contained. In Comparative 4, the breakage surface pressure is low since the component (B) is not contained, but the evaporativity is particularly high since an aliphatic ester is used in place of the component (A). In Comparative 5, the breakage surface pressure is increased since the components (B) and (C) are contained, but the evaporativity is high since an aliphatic ester is used in place of the component (A).
