- 3. A composition according to claim 1 wherein (a) is a petroleum sulfonic acid prepared by sulfonating a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction having a viscosity within the range of 90 to 270 SUS at 210.degree.F and a viscosity index of at least about 85 and (b) is an adduct formed from tetraethylenepentamine and salicylaldehyde.
- 4. A composition according to claim 1 wherein (a) is a petroleum sulfonic acid prepared by sulfonating a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction being a viscosity within the range of 90 to 270 SUS at 210.degree.F and a viscosity index of at least about 85 and (b) is an adduct formed from tetraethylenepentamine and p-anisaldehyde.
- 5. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the amount of (a) present with respect to (b) ranges from 1/1 to 5/1 equivalents of petroleum sulfonic acid per mole of amine used to prepare the adduct of (b), and further wherein the molar ratio of aldehyde to amine is in the range of 1/1 to 2/1.
- 6. A composition according to the claim 1 wherein said reacting is carried out at a temperature in the range of 100.degree. to 210.degree.F for a period of time ranging from about 0.1 to about 20 hours.
- 7. A process for the preparation of a lubricating oil and gasoline additive which comprises
- a. contacting at least one aldehyde having from 2 to 12, inclusive, carbon atoms with at least one amine selected from primary monoamines having from 2 to 10, inclusive, carbon atoms, and polyamines represented by the formula H.sub.2 N[(CH.sub.2).sub.x NH].sub.y H wherein X is an integer of from 2 to 6 and y is an integer of from 1 to 10, under conditions of a temperature and pressure and for a time sufficient to produce an aldehyde/amine adduct of said compounds, the molar ratio of aldehyde to amine present during said contacting being about 1/1 to about 2/1, and
- b. interreacting at a temperature and pressure and for a time sufficient to produce said additive said adduct obtained in step (a) with a petroleum sulfonic acid wherein the amounts of reactants present during said reacting are from 1/1 to 5/1 equivalents of petroleum sulfonic acid per mole of amine used to prepare said adduct.
- 8. A process according to claim 7 wherein the aldehyde is slowly added to said amine while cooling the reaction mixture during said contacting in step (a), and then the reaction mixture is refluxed at an elevated temperature to complete the reaction and remove some of the water formed during the reaction.
- 9. A process according to claim 8 wherein the reactants during the formation of said adduct are cooled to about 0.degree.F and then heated up to about 350.degree.F to complete the reaction.
- 10. A process according to claim 8 wherein said interreacting is carried out in the presence of an inert diluent and at a temperature in the range of 100.degree. to 200.degree.F for a period of time sufficient to form said product additive.
