Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of lubricating compositions, in particular for motor vehicles, in particular for lubricating the transmission components of motor vehicles, in particular the gears of the transmissions of thermal or electric motors.
- Flaking occurs after a long time of aging, preceding visible deterioration.
- the mechanisms are not well known, but the phenomenon starts with the initiation of cracks at a certain depth under the surface, these cracks propagate, and when cracks normal to the surface are created, scales are detached suddenly.
- the prevention of this phenomenon passes by a reduction of the stresses of contact thanks to an appropriate geometry of the parts, and by the reduction of the frictions, by avoiding adhesion.
- the lubricating composition intervenes in this prevention process, mainly through the physico-chemical reactivity of its additives.
- Sulphur, phosphorus or borate anti-wear and extreme pressure additives are generally added to give transmission oils protective properties against chipping.
- the other additives present in the lubricating composition can also have an impact, positive or negative, on the propagation of cracks inside the parts and therefore on the spalling phenomenon.

Description Description
Titre : Composition lubrifiante pour transmission automobile. Title: Lubricant composition for automobile transmission.
Domaine technique Technical area
La présente invention concerne le domaine des compositions lubrifiantes, en particulier pour véhicules automobiles, notamment pour lubrifier les organes de transmissions des véhicules automobiles, en particulier les engrenages des transmissions de moteurs thermiques ou électriques. The present invention relates to the field of lubricating compositions, in particular for motor vehicles, in particular for lubricating the transmission components of motor vehicles, in particular the gears of the transmissions of thermal or electric motors.
Etat de la technique State of the art
Les organes de transmissions des véhicules automobiles fonctionnent sous forte charge et vitesses élevées. Les huiles pour ces transmissions doivent donc être particulièrement performantes dans la protection des pièces contre l'usure et la fatigue, et notamment protéger les dents d'engrenage contre le phénomène d'écaillage. Motor vehicle transmission components operate under heavy load and high speeds. The oils for these transmissions must therefore be particularly effective in protecting the parts against wear and fatigue, and in particular protecting the gear teeth against the phenomenon of chipping.
L'écaillage se produit après un long temps de vieillissement, précédant les détériorations visibles. Les mécanismes sont mal connus, mais le phénomène démarre par l'amorçage de fissures à une certaine profondeur sous la surface, ces fissures se propagent, et lorsque des fissures normales à la surface se créent, des écailles se détachent brutalement. Flaking occurs after a long time of aging, preceding visible deterioration. The mechanisms are not well known, but the phenomenon starts with the initiation of cracks at a certain depth under the surface, these cracks propagate, and when cracks normal to the surface are created, scales are detached suddenly.
La prévention de ce phénomène passe par une diminution des contraintes de contact grâce à une géométrie appropriée des pièces, et par la réduction des frottements, en évitant l'adhésion. La composition lubrifiante intervient dans ce processus de prévention, principalement par la réactivité physico chimique de ses additifs. The prevention of this phenomenon passes by a reduction of the stresses of contact thanks to an appropriate geometry of the parts, and by the reduction of the frictions, by avoiding adhesion. The lubricating composition intervenes in this prevention process, mainly through the physico-chemical reactivity of its additives.
On ajoute généralement des additifs anti usure et extrême pression soufrés, phosphorés, ou boratés, pour conférer aux huiles pour transmission des propriétés de protection contre l'écaillage. Les autres additifs présents dans la composition lubrifiante peuvent également avoir un impact, positif ou négatif, sur la propagation des fissures à l'intérieur des pièces et donc sur le phénomène d'écaillage. Sulphur, phosphorus or borate anti-wear and extreme pressure additives are generally added to give transmission oils protective properties against chipping. The other additives present in the lubricating composition can also have an impact, positive or negative, on the propagation of cracks inside the parts and therefore on the spalling phenomenon.
Au cours de son utilisation, la composition lubrifiante mise en œuvre dans les organes de transmission, peut être amenée à se détériorer. During its use, the lubricating composition used in the transmission components may deteriorate.
C’est donc un objet de la présente invention que de fournir une composition permettant de lubrifier les organes de transmissions manuelles ou automatiques en particulier les engrenages de transmission de moteurs thermiques ou électriques, ladite composition présentant en outre une bonne durabilité.
Le document WO 2010/126760 décrit une composition lubrifiante comprenant une huile de base et un polymère de type ester phosphoré comprenant le produit de la réaction de condensation d’un acide ou ester phosphoré avec un diol où les deux fonctions hydroxy sont séparées par une chaîne de 4 à 100 atomes de carbone. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a composition for lubricating manual or automatic transmission members, in particular the transmission gears of heat or electric motors, said composition further having good durability. Document WO 2010/126760 describes a lubricating composition comprising a base oil and a polymer of phosphorus ester type comprising the product of the condensation reaction of an acid or phosphorus ester with a diol where the two hydroxy functions are separated by a chain. from 4 to 100 carbon atoms.
Le document WO 2016/089565 décrit une composition lubrifiante comprenant une huile de base et une composition phosphite ester comprenant le produit de la réaction de condensation d’un acide ou ester phosphoré avec au moins deux diols. Document WO 2016/089565 describes a lubricating composition comprising a base oil and a phosphite ester composition comprising the product of the condensation reaction of a phosphorus acid or ester with at least two diols.
Ces deux documents ne visent pas les propriétés de capacité de charge et ne décrivent pas spécifiquement le polymère phosphite de formule (I) tels que définis dans la présente invention. These two documents do not relate to the load capacity properties and do not specifically describe the phosphite polymer of formula (I) as defined in the present invention.

Les sels de cuivre I et II, les sels d’acide ou d’anhydride succiniques peuvent également être utilisés.

De manière avantageuse, la composition lubrifiante selon l’invention comprend au moins un additif antioxydant exempt de cendres. Advantageously, the lubricating composition according to the invention comprises at least one ash-free antioxidant additive.
La composition lubrifiante selon l’invention peut comprendre de 0,5 à 2 % en poids d’au moins un additif antioxydant, par rapport au poids total de la composition.

La composition lubrifiante selon l’invention peut également comprendre au moins un additif détergent. The lubricating composition according to the invention may also comprise at least one detergent additive.
Les additifs détergents permettent généralement de réduire la formation de dépôts à la surface des pièces métalliques par dissolution des produits secondaires d’oxydation et de combustion.

Les métaux alcalins et alcalino-terreux sont préférentiellement le calcium, le magnésium, le sodium ou le baryum. The detergent additives are preferably chosen from alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal salts of carboxylic acids, sulfonates, salicylates, naphthenates, as well as phenate salts. The alkali and alkaline-earth metals are preferably calcium, magnesium, sodium or barium.
Ces sels métalliques comprennent généralement le métal en quantité stœchiométrique ou bien en excès, donc en quantité supérieure à la quantité stœchiom étriqué. Il s’agit alors d’additifs détergents surbasés ; le métal en excès apportant le caractère surbasé à l’additif détergent est alors généralement sous la forme d’un sel métallique insoluble dans l’huile, par exemple un carbonate, un hydroxyde, un oxalate, un acétate, un glutamate, préférentiellement un carbonate. These metallic salts generally comprise the metal in a stoichiometric quantity or else in excess, therefore in a quantity greater than the narrow stoichiometric quantity. These are then overbased detergent additives; the excess metal providing the overbased character to the detergent additive is then generally in the form of an oil-insoluble metal salt, for example a carbonate, a hydroxide, an oxalate, an acetate, a glutamate, preferentially a carbonate .
La composition lubrifiante convenant à l’invention peut par exemple comprendre de 0,5 à 4 % en poids d’additif détergent, par rapport au poids total de la composition.

Typically, the dispersant will make it possible to ensure the maintenance in suspension and the evacuation of the insoluble solid contaminants constituted by the secondary products of oxidation which are formed when the lubricating composition is in service.
L’agent dispersant peut être choisi parmi les bases de Mannich ou les composés de type succinimide, tels que les polyisobutylène succinimide (PIBSI). The dispersing agent can be chosen from Mannich bases or compounds of succinimide type, such as polyisobutylene succinimide (PIBSI).

En ralentissant la formation de cristaux de paraffine, les additifs abaisseurs de point d’écoulement améliorent généralement le comportement à froid de la composition. Comme exemple d’additifs abaisseurs de point d’écoulement, on peut citer les polyméthacrylates d’alkyle, les polyacrylates, les polyarylamides, les polyalkylphénols, les polyalkylnaphtalènes, les polystyrènes alkylés. By slowing down the formation of paraffin crystals, pour point depressants generally improve the cold behavior of the composition. As an example of pour point depressant additives, mention may be made of polyalkyl methacrylates, polyacrylates, polyarylamides, polyalkylphenols, polyalkylnaphthalenes, alkylated polystyrenes.
La composition lubrifiante selon l’invention peut également comprendre au moins un additif améliorant l’indice de viscosité (améliorant de VI).
