LUBRICATING COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THE USE THEREOF

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to compositions and methods of use thereof for lubrication.

BACKGROUND

Lubricating fluids facilitate the reduction of friction (i.e. lubricate), remove heat (i.e. cool), flush away impurities, preserve or improve surface quality, and protect, e.g., tools and machine parts from damage, wear and corrosion as far as possible. In addition to the functions described above, ideal lubricating fluids have the following desirable functions and properties: inhibit corrosion, low foam formation, low toxicity, microbial resistant, waste treatment friendly, biodegradable, and non-objectionable odor.

For example, lubricating fluids are frequently used in metal working processes, e.g., cutting, grinding, forming, lapping, drawing, forming, pressing, punching, rolling, stamping, etc. Metalworking fluids are often straight oil (vegetable or animal oil or fat, a mineral oil, synthetic oil or a mixture thereof) or water-based fluids. Water-based metalworking fluids include soluble oils, which contain less than 2% by weight of water; semi-synthetic fluids, which contain 10-60% by weight of water; synthetic fluids, which are petroleum oil-free and can contain any water-soluble lubricity additive; and neo-synthetic fluids, which use vegetable oil and/or animal oil instead of petroleum and may contain an emulsifier, corrosion inhibitors, alkanolamine, and water. Metalworking fluids may also include agents, for example, an oiliness improver, an extreme pressure agent, a corrosion inhibitor (e.g. a rust preventative), a surfactant, a preservative, an antioxidant, etc.

Petroleum oil rich metalworking fluids are utilized in nearly 80% of metalworking operations. Petroleum based metalworking fluids, however, have several drawbacks, for example: (1) poor heat conductivity and therefore, limited ability to cool; (2) misting results in petroleum residues that are difficult to remove; (3) the emulsion stability is often effected by water hardness; and (4) not environmentally friendly and therefore, result in disposal difficulties.

Amine-containing metalworking fluids are being employed because the amines (e.g. alkanolamines) increase bio-resistance, corrosion protection, and emulsion stability. Effective water-based metalworking fluids are difficult to formulate without employing amines. However, amines can be very toxic. Furthermore, synthetic petroleum oil-free (i.e. water-based) metalworking fluids currently on the market have limited lubricity and stability. As such, there is a need for metalworking fluids that are effective lubricants, which are stable for an extended period of time, and contain less hazardous compounds (e.g. reduced amine content).

DIACID 1550 is often employed in lubricating fluids because it is a co-emulsifier that inhibits corrosion (extends machinery life), has lower bioactivity (prolongs fluid life), and has increased hard water tolerance compared to mixed and fatty acids. As such, employing DIACID 1550 results fewer additives in the lubricating fluid because it functions to lubricate, prevent corrosion, co-emulsifies, etc. However, DIACID 1550 is limited in its hard water tolerance (i.e. stability in hard water), and produces foam when utilized in metalworking fluids.

Therefore, there exists a need to for lubricating fluids that have increased stability (i.e., longer shelf-life), performance in hard water, suitable lubricity, and reduced foam formation during use, e.g., metalworking.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following is a detailed description of the disclosure provided to aid those skilled in the art in practicing the present disclosure. Those of ordinary skill in the art may make modifications and variations in the embodiments described herein without departing from the spirit or scope of the present disclosure. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. The terminology used in the description of the disclosure herein is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the disclosure. All publications, patent applications, patents, figures and other references mentioned herein are expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety.

As described herein, the present description relates to the surprising and unexpected discovery of an agent that provides superior lubrication and hard water tolerance (i.e. stable in hard water), in a non-foaming or low foaming composition. In particular, the present description discloses lubricating compounds and compositions comprising the same. The compounds described herein include partial esters of a compound derived from the Diels-Alder reaction of a diene, e.g., a conjugated fatty acid, and an acid precursor dienophile. The resulting half-esters as described herein demonstrate at least one of increased stability (i.e., longer shelf life), better performance in hard water, lubricity, and reduced foam formation during use. As such the lubricating compositions as described herein are suitable for numerous applications, including mechanical processes such as metalworking.

In certain embodiments, the diene is a conjugated fatty acid (substituted or unsubstituted).

In certain embodiments the dienophile can be an acrylic acid or an acrylic acid ester. In certain other embodiments the acid precursor dienophile is at least one of methacrylic acid, maleic anhydride, fumaric acid, a fumaric acid mono or diester or a combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the compound derived from the Diels-Alder reaction of a diene, e.g., a conjugated fatty acid, and an acid precursor dienophile is DIACID 1550 (Ingevity Corporation), which is derived from the reaction of a fatty acid and acrylic acid.

In certain embodiments, the lubricating compound is a DIACID 1550 partial or half ester. The DIACID 1550 partial ester can be derived from a reaction product of DIACID 1550 and an alcohol. In an embodiment, the lubricating compound is a partial ester of DIACID 1550 and at least one of n-Pentanol, 1-Dodecanol, or 2-ethyl-1-hexanol.

In a certain embodiments described herein, the lubricating composition is a semi-synthetic lubricating fluid. The semi-synthetic lubricating fluid can be optimized with a coupling solvent, e.g. tripropylene glycol methyl ether or diethylene glycol monobutyl ether. In another embodiment of the present description, the composition is a synthetic lubricating fluid. The synthetic lubricating fluid can be optimized with a non-ionic surfactant, for example, alkylphenol ethoxylate, a linear alcohol ethoxylate, or a DIACID 1550 ethoxylate.

In another aspect, the description discloses an aqueous lubricating composition comprising a partial ester of a compound derived from the Diels-Alder reaction of a diene, e.g., a conjugated fatty acid, and an acid precursor dienophile, e.g., a DIACID 1550 partial ester. The DIACID 1550 partial ester can be derived from a reaction of an alcohol and DIACID 1550. In a particular embodiment, the alcohol is selected from the group consisting of n-pentanol, 1-docecanol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, and combinations thereof.

DIACID 1550 partial esters, for example a half ester (that is, a monoester), are an effective additive for lubricating fluids, e.g., metalworking fluids. In particular, mixtures comprising DIACID 1550 partial esters, including in combination with at least one of DIACID 1550 bis-esters or diesters or DIACID 1550, are effective additives for lubricating compositions, including, e.g., metalworking fluids. DIACID 1550 half esters have properties that can be used in semi-synthetic and synthetic lubricating fluid formulations. In properly balanced systems, DIACID 1550 half esters provide very good results with regard to emulsion stability in hard water. This hard water stability is a significant improvement over DIACID 1550 alone. The DIACID 1550 half esters also have enhanced lubrication and comparable corrosion inhibition properties compared to DIACID 1550.

In addition, the DIACID 1550 half esters give very good results in synthetic systems when nonionic surfactants are used to adjust the hydrophobic/lipophilic balance (HLB) of the formulation. In semi-synthetic systems, a coupling solvent can be used to optimize formulation stability. The DIACID 1550 half esters appear to be significantly more flexible when compared to DIACID 1550 in these type of formulations.

Where a range of values is provided, it is understood that each intervening value, to the tenth of the unit of the lower limit unless the context clearly dictates otherwise (such as in the case of a group containing a number of carbon atoms in which case each carbon atom number falling within the range is provided), between the upper and lower limit of that range and any other stated or intervening value in that stated range is encompassed within the disclosure. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may independently be included in the smaller ranges is also encompassed within the invention, subject to any specifically excluded limit in the stated range. Where the stated range includes one or both of the limits, ranges excluding either both of those included limits are also included in the invention.

The following terms are used to describe the present invention. In instances where a term is not specifically defined herein, that term is given an art-recognized meaning by those of ordinary skill applying that term in context to its use in describing the present invention.

The articles “a” and “an” as used herein and in the appended claims are used herein to refer to one or to more than one (i.e., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. By way of example, “an element” means one element or more than one element.

The phrase “and/or,” as used herein in the specification and in the claims, should be understood to mean “either or both” of the elements so conjoined, i.e., elements that are conjunctively present in some cases and disjunctively present in other cases. Multiple elements listed with “and/or” should be construed in the same fashion, i.e., “one or more” of the elements so conjoined. Other elements may optionally be present other than the elements specifically identified by the “and/or” clause, whether related or unrelated to those elements specifically identified. Thus, as a non-limiting example, a reference to “A and/or B”, when used in conjunction with open-ended language such as “comprising” can refer, in one embodiment, to A only (optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to B only (optionally including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to both A and B (optionally including other elements); etc.

As used herein in the specification and in the claims, “or” should be understood to have the same meaning as “and/or” as defined above. For example, when separating items in a list, “or” or “and/or” shall be interpreted as being inclusive, i.e., the inclusion of at least one, but also including more than one, of a number or list of elements, and, optionally, additional unlisted items. Only terms clearly indicated to the contrary, such as “only one of” or “exactly one of,” or, when used in the claims, “consisting of,” will refer to the inclusion of exactly one element of a number or list of elements. In general, the term “or” as used herein shall only be interpreted as indicating exclusive alternatives (i.e., “one or the other but not both”) when preceded by terms of exclusivity, such as “either,” “one of,” “only one of,” or “exactly one of.”

In the claims, as well as in the specification above, all transitional phrases such as “comprising,” “including,” “carrying,” “having,” “containing,” “involving,” “holding,” “composed of,” and the like are to be understood to be open-ended, i.e., to mean including but not limited to. Only the transitional phrases “consisting of” and “consisting essentially of” shall be closed or semi-closed transitional phrases, respectively, as set forth in the 10 United States Patent Office Manual of Patent Examining Procedures, Section 2111.03.

As used herein in the specification and in the claims, the phrase “at least one,” in reference to a list of one or more elements, should be understood to mean at least one element selected from anyone or more of the elements in the list of elements, but not necessarily including at least one of each and every element specifically listed within the list of elements and not excluding any combinations of elements in the list of elements. This definition also allows that elements may optionally be present other than the elements specifically identified within the list of elements to which the phrase “at least one” refers, whether related or unrelated to those elements specifically identified. Thus, as a nonlimiting example, “at least one of A and B” (or, equivalently, “at least one of A or B,” or, equivalently “at least one of A and/or B”) can refer, in one embodiment, to at least one, optionally including more than one, A, with no B present (and optionally including elements other than B); in another embodiment, to at least one, optionally including more than one, B, with no A present (and optionally including elements other than A); in yet another embodiment, to at least one, optionally including more than one, A, and at least one, optionally including more than one, B (and optionally including other elements); etc.

It should also be understood that, unless clearly indicated to the contrary, in any methods claimed herein that include more than one step or act, the order of the steps or acts of the method is not necessarily limited to the order in which the steps or acts of the method are recited.

The term “compound”, as used herein, unless otherwise indicated, refers to any specific chemical compound disclosed herein and includes tautomers, regioisomers, geometric isomers, and where applicable, stereoisomers, including optical isomers (enantiomers) and other steroisomers (diastereomers) thereof. It is noted that in describing the present compounds, numerous substituents and variables associated with same, among others, are described. It is understood by those of ordinary skill that molecules which are described herein are stable compounds as generally described hereunder. When the bond is shown, both a double bond and single bond are represented within the context of the compound shown.

As described above, the present description discloses a lubricating fluid composition comprising a partial ester of a Diels-Alder product resulting from the reaction of a diene, e.g., a conjugated fatty acid, with an acid precursor dienophile. In certain embodiments the dienophile can be an acrylic acid or an acrylic acid ester. In certain other embodiments the dienophile can be maleic anhydride or fumaric acid or a fumaric acid mono or diester. In certain embodiments, the compound derived from the Diels-Alder reaction of a diene, e.g., a conjugated fatty acid, and an acid precursor dienophile is DIACID 1550 (Ingevity Corporation), which is derived from the reaction of a fatty acid and acrylic acid.

In certain embodiments, the partial ester is a DIACID 1550 half ester. DIACID 1550 (Ingevity, S.C.) is a Diels-Alder product resulting from the reaction of acrylic acid with a tall oil fatty acid (TOFA). The DIACID 1550 half ester can be derived from a reaction comprising an alcohol and DIACID 1550. In a preferred embodiment, the reaction is performed with a molar excess of carboxyl moieties, such that the majority of esters produced are partial esters. In certain embodiments, the alcohol in the reaction is present at an alcohol to carboxyl moiety molar ratio of less than or equal to 0.5:1. In an embodiment, the half ester is derived from at least one of n-Pentanol, 1-Dodecanol, or 2-ethyl-1-hexanol.

In addition to the DIACID 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol, 1-dodecanol, and n-pentanol half esters, DIACID 1550 half esters of other alcohols can be utilized as a lubricating additive in any of the lubricating compositions described herein, including for metalworking. For example, in an embodiment, the DIACID 1550 half ester alcohol is selected from methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 2-chloro-1-propanol, 1-chloro-2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, isobutanol, tert-butanol, 1-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-butanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol, cyclopentanol, 1-hexanol, 2-methyl-1-pentanol, 3-methyl-1-pentanol, 4-methyl-1-pentanol, 2,2-dimethyl-1-butanol, 2,3-dimethyl-1-butanol, 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol, 2-ethyl-1-butanol, 3-ethyl-1-butanol, cyclohexanol, 1-octanol, 2-octanol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 1-decanol, 2-decanol, 1-dodecanol, 2-dodecanol, 1-tetradecanol, 2-tetradecanol, 1-hexadecanol, 2-hexadecanol, 1-octadecanol, 2-octadecanol, benzyl alcohol, nonanol, decanol, polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene, diol or polyol.

Examples

Examining Partial Esters of DIACID 1550 with 2-Ethylhexanol or Dodecanol as Lubricating Corrosion Inhibitors. Evaluations were conducted for surface rust prevention, lubricity, hard water tolerance, and foaming properties for partial esters of DIACID 1550 neutralized with either TEA or potassium hydroxide. The following observations were made: (1) potassium and TEA salts of the partial esters are significantly more stable in hard water than the corresponding DIACID 1550 salts; (2) potassium and TEA salts of the partial esters have notably reduced foaming compared to the corresponding DIACID 1550 salts; (3) potassium salts of both the partial esters are better corrosion inhibitors than the potassium salt of DIACID 1550 and the DIACID M-T67; (4) potassium salts of both the partial esters are equivalent boundary lubricants to DIACID M-T67; and (5) TEA salts of the two partial esters are better boundary lubricants than DIACID M-T67.

Partial esters of DIACID 1550, DIACID 1525, and DIACID 1550 XLM with 2-ethylhexanol or dodecanol were synthesized with hypophosphorous acid as a catalyst. Aliquots of the partial esters were neutralized with (1:1) potassium hydroxide as the 41% active aqueous solution or neat (1:1) with TEA 99. The neat TEA salts were clear and flowable. The aqueous 41% active potassium solution of the 2-ethylhexanol partial ester of DIACID 1550 was clear, but the other partial esters were opaque and unstable.

The DIACID 1550 partial ester potassium and TEA salts were diluted to various levels between 0.5% to 10% with 300 ppm hard water. The hard water solutions were examined for short and long term stability; 1% solutions were examined using the Falex Pin and V-Block Lubricity Testing Apparatus (ASTM D2670), 1-5% solutions were examined by the Cast Iron Chip Corrosion Test (ASTM D4627-86), and 0.5%, 2%, and 5% solutions were examined for hard water tolerance, relative foaming tendencies, and clarity. The data is shown in Table 1 and Table 2.

The potassium and TEA salts of the partial esters of 2-ethylhexanol and dodecanol are significantly more stable in hard water than the corresponding DIACID 1550 salts. The 2-ethylhexanol partial ester salts are more stable than the dodecanol partial ester salts. The dodecanol partial ester potassium salt is not as stable as a 41% active solution in deionized water; lower concentration solutions, however, are stable in 300 ppm hard water.

The potassium salts of both the 2-ethylhexanol and dodecanol partial esters of DIACID 1550 are better corrosion inhibitors and boundary lubricants than the potassium salt of DIACID 1550. Furthermore, both the 2-ethylhexanol and dodecanol partial esters of DIACID 1550 perform better than DIACID M-T67 (67% DIACID 1550 1:2 TEA salt, 8% TEA, and 25% water). The TEA salts of the DIACID 1550 partial esters are better boundary lubricants than DIACID M-T67, but slightly worse corrosion inhibitors. This is likely due to the excess TEA in the DIACID M-T67.

The potassium salt solutions at 2% and 5% demonstrated stability for over 2 months and have a blue-white haze that keeps them from being completely clear. The potassium salts of the DIACID 1550 partial esters completely prevent rust at a lower concentration that the DIACID M-T67 which has 8% excess TEA, but is only 75% active. The salts of the DIACID 1550 partial esters foam significantly less than the corresponding DIACID 1550 salts as the same concentrations, particularly in hard water.

Examining DIACID 1550 Partial Esters of 2-Ethylhexanol or Dodecanol in Generic Semi-Synthetic Metalworking Fluid Formulation. An investigation was conducted to observe the performance of the partial esters in a generic semi-synthetic metalworking fluid formulation. DIACID 1550, DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, and the DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester were examined in the formulation. After roughly optimizing the formulation for each product, stabilities of both the concentrates and their 1% active concentration dilutions (in 300 ppm hard water) were observed over a period of at least 10 days. The general formulation of the semi-synthetic metalworking fluid was:

Q.S. to 100%

q.s. to pH = 8.6-10.5

The following general observations were made: (1) in properly balanced formulations, the DIACID 1550 partial ester salts performed noticeably better than the corresponding DIACID 1550; (2) generally, the partial ester salts performed significantly better in hard water; (3) optimization of the level of neutralizing agent and the coupling agent is important; and (4) the HLB of the system can be adjusted to enhance the lubricating and corrosion inhibiting effects of the DIACID 1550 partial esters.

Modifications were made to the formulation in order to examine two couplers (DOWANOL™ TPM (tripropylene glycol methyl ether) and Butyl CARBITOL™ (diethylene glycol monobutyl ether)), examine different amounts of neutralizing (“buffering”) agents, the effect of pH, and adjust the HLB. The concentrates were formulated with deionized water and subsequent 1% active concentration dilutions were made with 300 ppm hard water. The concentrates and 1% dilutions were observed for at least 10 days. The inherent foam properties of the DIACID partial esters were determined with the Ross-Miles Foam Test procedure. American Society of Testing and Materials Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volume 15.04 (1992), Standard D1173 “Standard Test Method for Foaming Properties for Surface-Active Agents”, pp 108-109. The clarity, stability, layering, scumming, and relative foam were documented. The results can be found in Table 3 and Table 4.

The five formulations in Table 3 were used as range finders for the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester potassium salt. A 1.5 fold excess of neutralizing agent was tried with a lower level of DOWANOL™ TPM coupling solvent in 53B. This was similar practice to excess TEA formulations. The initial appearance of the concentrate was white opaque, but stable. This was marginal so other options were tried. The potassium hydroxide excess was reduced to one third in 53E. The appearance of the concentrate was still white opaque and stable. A non-ionic tall oil fatty acid ethoxylate (Ethox TM014A) was added as a co-emulsifier and hydrophobic/lipophilic balance (HLB) modifier in 54A. A significant improvement to a stable, near clear solution with a light white haze was obtained. In 54C, additional DOWANOL™ TPM coupling solvent was added to the levels used in 54A. The result was a clear, stable concentrate. In 54E, the Ethox TM014A was left out and a lower level of DOWANOL™ TPM was used. The same clear, stable concentrate was obtained. Dilutions with 300 ppm hard water were performed. Initial results for the hard water dilutions gave better results as they progressed from 53B to 54C and 54E. Initially, 54C was clear, but within the first hour developed a very light white haze. Initially, 54E had a very light white haze. Upon aging 6 days, 54C and 54E remained stable with a very light haze for both the concentrate and hard water dilution. As for the other concentrates, 53B layered, 53E was white opaque, but 54A was stable with a white haze. Their hard water dilutions were poorer in performance. The hard water dilution of 53B was white opaque, layered, and had a light scum. The hard water dilutions of 53E and 54A were stable and white opaque.

In Table 4, DIACID 1550 and the two DIACID 1550 partial esters were compared as potassium salts. DIACID 1550 was examined at a low and a high DOWANOL™ TPM level in 55E and 55G. DIACID 1550 performed poorly in the concentrate, layering in the first hour. In 56B, the DIACID1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester was examined at a high DOWANOL™ TPM level and it produced a clear, stable concentrate. The coupling solvent was changed to Butyl CARBITOL™ (diethylene glycol monobutyl ether) because it was specified in the original generic formulation. In 56D and 57A, the DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester salts with high and medium levels of Butyl CARBITOL™ were examined with very good results in the concentrates observed (clear and stable). Based on these results in the concentrates, the medium level of Butyl CARBITOL™ was used with DIACID 1550 and the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester (57E and 57C respectively). The DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester concentrate (57C) was clear and stable. But the DIACID 1550 concentrate (57E) was white opaque and layered within the first hour. When the 300 ppm hard water dilutions were performed, the DIACID 1550 based concentrates performed poorly.

The DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester performed better with Butyl CARBITOL™ coupling solvent when placed in 300 ppm hard water, but as concentrates the Butyl CARBITOL™ and DOWANOL™ TPM based formulations were comparable. The DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol partial esters performed very well as concentrates and hard water dilutions with Butyl CARBITOL™ as the coupling solvent in the formulation. It appears that the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester performs slightly better with DOWANOL™ TPM as the coupling solvent. DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester, DIACID 1550 2-ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, and DIACID 1550 were compared under similar formulations in 57 A-E and the partial esters were far better.

Examining DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexanol Partial Esters Performance in Generic Synthetic Metalworking Fluid Formulations. DIACID 1550, DIACID M-T67, and the DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexanol partial ester were examined a generic synthetic metalworking fluid formulations. After roughly optimizing the formulation, stabilities of both the concentrates and their 1% active concentration dilutions (in 300 ppm hard water) were observed over a period of at least 10 days. The inherent foam properties were determined with the Ross-Miles Foam Test procedure, as cited above. The following observations were made: (1) in an optimized system, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexanol partial ester significantly outperforms DIACID 1550 in a hard water dilution; (2) pH is important, particularly in a KOH neutralized system; and (3) adjustment of the system HLB is critical for the DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexanol partial ester.

The partial ester of DIACID 1550 with 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol was formulated into a generic synthetic metalworking fluid. DIACID 1550 was formulated for comparison. The general formulation of the generic synthetic metal working fluid is:

The concentrates and 1% dilutions were observed for at least 10 days. The clarity, stability, layering, scumming, and relative foam were documented.

The formulations in Table 5 were used as range finders for the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester potassium salt. The EM-550 emulsifier package was left out in order to examine the effect of pH changes on the partial ester salt in the presence of the Emphos TS-230 phosphate ester. Concentrate pH ranges were from 6.5 to 13. A tall oil fatty acid ethoxylate (Ethox TMO14A) was added to selected samples for HLB adjustment. The best initial stability for the concentrates occurred above pH 8. Extended stability for pH13 was poor and pH 12 appeared to be a borderline. Addition of the Ethox TMO14A to the formulation appeared to improve the stability of the hard water dilutions. Formulation 45C does not contain the emulsifier or phosphate ester, and the resulting foam rating demonstrates that the formulation foam is not from the 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester alone.

The formulations in Table 6 were used to compare DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester and DIACID 1550 in a potassium neutralized system. All formulation ingredients were present and in some cases a coupling solvent and/or nonionic surfactant was added in an attempt to optimize the 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester concentrate formulation stability. The high pH 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester formulation concentrate (59A) performed very poorly, but the hardwater dilution performed moderately well. The DIACID 1550 formulation concentrate (59C) performed very well, but the hardwater dilution performed poorly. Reduction in pH and addition of the above mentioned stabilizing additives provided significantly enhanced performance in the 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester based concentrates (59E, 60A, and 60B). All three formulations performed very well as hardwater dilutions.

The formulations in Table 7 examine the system with triethanolamine (TEA) as the neutralizing agent. Each formulation contains approximately 6% TEA in excess of the amount needed to neutralize the DIACID 1550 or DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester. Formulation 58A has pre-made DIACID M-T67, while 58E contains DIACID 1550 neutralized in situ. It should be noted that 58A (DIACID M-T67) and 58E (DIACID 1550) performed differently. Modification of the HLB and/or addition of a coupling solvent were previously demonstrated to dramatically improve the performance of the partial ester formulations. This was illustrated again in when comparing 58C (2-Ethyl-1-hexanol) with 58G.

Examining DIACID 1550 Partial Ester of 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol or 1-Dodecanol in Generic Metalworking Fluid Formulations. An investigation was conducted to observe the performance of the 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol DIACID 1550 partial esters in generic synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking fluid formulations. DIACID 1550, DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial esters, and DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial esters were examined in the formulations. Several additives were used to adjust the HLB, or the solvency, of the formulations to determine the best overall stability. After adjusting the formulations, stabilities of both the concentrates and their 1% active concentration dilutions (in 300 ppm hard water) were observed over a period of at least 10 days. The inherent foam properties of the neutralized partial esters were determined with the Ross-Miles Foam Test procedure, as cited above.

The following observations were made: (1) in the optimized TEA based semi-synthetic system, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial esters and DIACID 1-Dodecanol partial esters significantly outperformed DIACID 1550 in the concentrate and the hard water dilutions; (2) in the TEA based synthetic system, the unmodified formulation gave poor results; (3) TEA based synthetic system was difficult to stabilize, but IGEPAL CO-530 an octylphenol ethoxylate (HLB=10.8) worked well, yielding significant improvement with the partial esters; (4) a blend of IGEPAL CO-530 with OCD-480 (a PEG-400 diester of L-5) with HLB=10.2, worked well, yielding significant improvement with the partial esters; (5) in the potassium hydroxide (KOH) based synthetic system in which the HLB was balanced, the partial esters were far superior to DIACID 1550; (6) the alcohol ethoxylates (linear or alkylphenol) with HLB values of 10.5-12.5 did well with regard to stabilizing the partial ester based potassium hydroxide formulations; (7) the blends of OCD-480 (a PEG-400 diester of L-5) and alcohol ethoxylates (linear or alkylphenol) with resulting HLB values of 10.5 to 11.5 did well with regard to stabilizing the partial ester potassium hydroxide based formulations; (8) the Tall Oil Fatty Acid ethoxylate with a HLB value of 13.7 did well with regard to stabilizing the partial ester potassium hydroxide based formulations; (9) the DIACID 1550 12 mole ethoxylate with a HLB value of 12.0 did the best overall with regard to stabilizing the partial ester potassium hydroxide based formulations; (10) system adjustments did not improve the DIACID 1550 performance anywhere near as well as the improvement obtained in the performance of the DIACID 1550 partial esters; and (11) adjustment of the system HLB enhanced the stability of the concentrates and the hard water dilution.

Semi-Synthetic Formulations. The partial esters of DIACID 1550 with 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol or 1-Dodecanol were formulated into a TEA based generic semi-synthetic metalworking fluid. DIACID1550 was formulated for comparison. The general formulation is shown in Table 8. The concentrates were formulated with deionized water, and subsequently 1% active concentration dilutions were made with 300 ppm hard water. The concentrates and dilutions were observed for at least 10 days. Results for the TEA based semi-synthetic metalworking fluid formulation, including clarity, stability, layering, scumming and relative foam can be found in Tables 9.

The unmodified DIACID 1550 TEA based synthetic formulation had a stable concentrate. Therefore, improvement was not detected in the concentrate. However, the TERGITOL NP-9 improved the hard water dilution stability from less than 1 hour up to greater than 1 day, but less than 4 days. The Ethox TMO14A did not improve the performance of the DIACID 1550 TEA based synthetic formulation with regard to hard water dilution stability.

In Table 14, alkylphenol ethoxylates and OCD-480, which is a TOFA polyethylene glycol diester (TOFA-PEG), are used to optimize the HLB of the DIACID 1550 2-ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester TEA based synthetic formulation. Additive combinations with HLB of 9.5 to 11 perform well in the concentrate and the hard water dilutions.

Potassium Hydroxide Based Synthetic Formulation. The partial esters of DIACID 1550 with either 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol or 1-Dodecanol were formulated into a generic synthetic metalworking fluid. DIACID 1550 was formulated for comparison. The general formulation is shown in Table 15. Modifications were made to the formulation in order to examine a coupler (e.g. Butyl CARBITOL™), and adjust the HLB. The concentrates were formulated with deionized water, and subsequently 1% active concentration dilutions were made with 300 ppm hard water. The concentrates and dilutions were observed for at least 10 days. The clarity, stability, layering, scumming, and relative foam were documented. Results for the potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation can be found in Tables 16-20.

The results for the unmodified potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation are found in Table 16, along with the results for the formulation modified with ETHOX TMO14A. Items 71A, 71B, and 71C are the results for DIACID 1550, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, and the DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester, respectively. DIACID 1550 performed well in the concentrate, but poorly in the hard water dilution. Items 72A, 72B, and 72C are the results for the Ethox TM014A modified formulation with DIACID 1550, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, and the DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester, respectively. DIACID 1550 performed well in the concentrate. However, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester performed very well in the concentrate and the hard water dilution. The DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester performed significantly better in the concentrate and very well in the hard water dilution.

Table 17 contains the results for the potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation modified with Butyl CARBITOL™. There was no improvement of performance with Butyl CARBITOL™. As noted previously with the TEA based synthetic formulation, Butyl CARBITOL™ does not improve the performance of the synthetic formulation but readily improves the performance of the semi-synthetic formulation where it acts as an emulsifying solvent.

The results reported in Table 18 and Table 19 represent the examination of the 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester in the potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation modified with HLB adjusting additives of various chemistries. The additives consist of alkylphenol ethoxylates, linear alcohol ethoxylates, and Ingevity DIACID 1550 ethoxylates. The additives with HLB values between 10.5 and 12.5 worked best. But IGEPAL CO-630 (alkylphenol ethoxylate with HLB of 13.0; and in particular, nonyl phenol ethoxylate) performed very well. Another additive consisting of a blend of DIACID1550 ethoxylates (OCD-383 and OCD-384) performed poorly. It had a 12.6 calculated HLB. It should be noted here that the Ingevity DIACID 1550 ethoxylate with 12 moles EO (OCD-383) was one of the best performers and its formulation had the lowest foam.

Table 20 contains results of the investigation of the 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester in the potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation modified with HLB adjusting additives consisting of OCD-480(TOFA-PEG diester) blended with either an alkylphenol ethoxylate, a linear alcohol ethoxylate, or a Ingevity DIACID 1550 ethoxylate. The additive blends had HLB values ranging from 10.7 to 11.2, and they each performed very well. The TOFA-PEG diester and the DIACID 1550 ethoxylates also demonstrate the potential to be non-petroleum, renewable resource based metalworking fluid additives.

Comparing DIACID Partial Ester of n-Pentanol with 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol Analogues in Semi-synthetic and Synthetic Metalworking Fluid Formulations. An investigation was conducted to observe the performance of the DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial ester, and compare it to 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol partial esters, in generic synthetic and semi-synthetic working fluid formulations. DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial esters were examined in the semi-synthetic and synthetic metalworking fluid formulations and compares to data for DIACID 1550, DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial esters, and DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester. Selected additives were used to adjust the HLB, or the solvency, of the formulations based on the overall stability determined in previous experiments. After adjusting the formulations, stabilities of both the concentrates and their 1% active concentration dilutions (in 300 ppm hard water) were observed over a period of at least 10 days.

The following observations were made: (1) in the optimized TEA based semi-synthetic system, the DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial esters, like the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol partial esters, significantly outperformed DIACID 1550 in the concentrate and the hard water dilution; (2) in the optimized potassium hydroxide based semi-synthetic system, the DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial esters, like the 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol partial esters, significantly outperformed DIACID 1550 in the concentrate and the hard water dilution; (3) in the TEA based synthetic system, the unmodified formulation gave poor results in the hard water dilutions with all the partial esters and DIACID 1550; (4) DIACID 1550 gave very good stability in the TEA based and potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation concentrate without hard water; (5) the TEA based synthetic system modified with a nonionic surfactant like IGEPAL CO-530, an octylphenol ethoxylate (HLB=10.8), gave very good stability and significant improvement with the partial esters and to a lesser degree with DIACID1550; (6) in the potassium hydroxide based unmodified synthetic formulation, all the partial esters and DIACID 1550 gave poor results in the hard water dilutions; (7) in the potassium hydroxide based synthetic system with the HLB adjusted, the DIACID 1550 partial esters were far superior to DIACID 1550; (8) system adjustments did not improve the DIACID 1550 performance anywhere near as well as the improvement obtained in the performance of the DIACID 1550 partial esters; and (9) adjustment of the system HLB enhanced the stability of the concentrates and the hard water dilutions.

The investigation of the neutralized DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial esters as potential lubricating corrosion inhibitors consisted of observation of the salts in 300 ppm hard water, examination of the performance in the Iron Chip Corrosion Test (ASTM D4627-86), and the examination of lubricity properties using the Falex Pin and V-Block Lubricity Testing Apparatus (ASTM D2670). The results were compared to results for the neutralized 2-Ethylhexyl and dodecanol partial esters. The inherent foam properties of the neutralized partial esters were determined with the Ross-Miles Foam Test procedure, as cited above, and compared to the results for the neutralized 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol DIACID partial esters.

Semi-Synthetic Formulation. The DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial esters were formulated into a TEA based, and a KOH based, generic semi-synthetic metalworking fluid, and compared with results for DIACID 1550, DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, and DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester. The general formulation is included in Table 8 above and Table 21 below. The concentrates were formulated with deionized and subsequently 1% active concentration dilutions were made with 300 ppm hard water. The concentrates and dilutions were observed for at least 10 days. The clarity, stability, layering, scumming, and relative foam were documented.

The Ross-Miles Foam results are reported in Table 24. The DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial ester performs comparably to the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol or 1-Dodecanol partial esters, except that the 0.1% solution of potassium neutralized n-Pentanol partial ester appears to have initial foam heights like DIACID 1550 potassium neutralized material. However, the potassium neutralized n-Pentanol partial ester solution has a 5 minute foam stability like the other partial esters. In general, the partial esters have are improved with regard to their foaming properties (i.e., they have reduced foam production).

Results for the TEA based semi-synthetic metalworking fluid formulation are shown in Table 25. As shown previously above, DIACID 1550 performs poorly in the concentrate and the hard water dilution. The DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol and 1-Dodecanol partial esters performed very well in the concentrate and good in the hard water dilutions when the system was stabilized with a coupling solvent.

Results for the potassium hydroxide based semi-synthetic metalworking fluid formulation can be found in Table 26. Once again as reported previously above, DIACID 1550 performs poorly in the concentrate and the hard water dilution, whether or not the system has been stabilized with a coupling solvent. The DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol, 1-Dodecanol, and n-Pentanol partial esters performed very well in the concentrate and good in the hard water dilutions when the system was stabilized with a coupling solvent.

In both the TEA and the potassium hydroxide based systems, the DIACID 1550 partial ester performed better than DIACID 1550 even when the system does not contain a coupling solvent.

Synthetic Formulation. The DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial esters were formulated into a TEA based, and a KOH based, generic synthetic metalworking fluid, and compared to DIACID 1550, DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, and DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester. The general formulation is included in Tables 10 and 15 above. The concentrates were formulated with deionized water, and subsequently 1% active concentration dilutions were made with 300 ppm hard water. The concentrates and dilutions were observed for at least 10 days. The clarity, stability, layering, scumming, and relative foam were documented.

Results for the TEA based synthetic metalworking fluid formulations can be found in Tables 27 and 28. Items 63A, 63B, 63C, and 80D are the results for DIACID 1550, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, the DIACID 1550 1-Dodecanol partial ester, and the DIACID 1550 n-Pentanol partial ester, respectively. In the unmodified formulation, DIACID 1550 performed well in the concentrate, but poorly in the hard water dilution. In the unmodified formulation, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol, 1-Dodecanol, and n-Pentanol partial esters performed very poorly in the concentrate and the hard water dilutions. When the formulation is modified with nonionic surfactants to balance the HLB, the DIACID 1550 performs better in the hard water dilution. The DIACID 1550 partial esters perform significantly better in both the concentrate and the hard water dilutions when the formulation is modified with nonionic surfactants to balance the HLB

Results for the potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation can be found in Tables 29 and 30. They represent the examination of the partial esters in the potassium hydroxide based synthetic formulation unmodified and modified with HLB adjusting additives of three chemistries. The nonionic HLB adjusting additives were a nonylphenol 7 mole ethoxylate (TERGITOL NP-7), a Ingevity DIACID 1550 12 mole ethoxylate (OCD-383), and a tall oil fatty acid 14 mole ethoxylate (Ethox TMO14A). It should be noted here that the Ingevity DIACID 1550 ethoxylate with 12 moles E0 (OCD-383) was one of the best performers in studies above and its formulation had the lowest foam.

DIACID 1550 partial esters of n-Pentanol, 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol, and 1-Dodecanol have properties that can be used in semi-semisynthetic and synthetic metalworking fluid formulations. In properly balanced systems, they provide very good results with regard to emulsion stability in hard water. This hard water stability is a significant improvement over DIACID 1550. The DIACID 1550 partial esters have enhanced lubrication and comparable corrosion inhibition properties to DIACID 1550. The partial esters give very good results in synthetic systems when nonionic surfactants are used to adjust the HLB of the formulation. In semi-synthetic systems, a coupling solvent can be used to optimize formulation stability. The partial esters appear to have significantly better flexibility when compared to DIACID 1550 in semi-synthetic formulations. These experiments demonstrate that DIACID 1550 partial esters of alcohols can be used as products for metalworking.

Comparison of the Lubricity and Hydrolytic Stability of DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol Partial Ester and TOFA Ester Lubricant. DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester was analyzed for lubricity, and compared to an identical formula containing an industry standard TOFA Ester Lubricant (Polartech LA 8330). The DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester was further tested for hydrolytic stability, and that data was measured against a standard ester used for comparison testing. The DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexanol formulation utilized is shown in Table 31.

Wear scar diameter was measure using a 4Ball instrument. The instrument was set to ramp from 0 Kg to 200 Kg of pressure over the course of 20 minutes with the apparatus revolving at a constant 600 rpms. While the pressure ramped, fluid temperature, torque, wear, and coefficient of friction were tracked. The data are graphed, and can be compared between tests. The data point that is of the most importance is the measured scar diameter at the end of the test, measured in millimeters. Other data points that bear attention are in the column “Value at Cursor,” which indicate the maximum value of each parameter at 200 Kg of pressure after 20 minutes. These data points have been collated into the Table 32.

The data of Table 32 indicate that DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester is an excellent lubricant compared to the Standard TOFA Ester Lubricant (Polartech LA 8330) and the Standard Ester (EL Ester). FIGS. 1-3 are graphs of the 4Ball Test Data for DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester, the Standard TOFA Ester Lubricant (Polartech LA 8330), and the Standard Ester (EL Ester), respectively.

Large esters often have low hydrolytic stability, so this parameter was tested on the DIACID 1550 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol partial ester in comparison with a standard methyl ester used for an ester benchmark. The test method was as follows:

- 1. Add 2000 ppm of deionized water to test ester.
- 2. An aliquot of the water/ester mix was sealed in 5 different sealed vials.
- 3. One vial was retained to test acid value before heating.
- 4. The vials were placed in a 180° C. oven.
- 5. Periodically, a vial was removed, allowed to cool, abd then the Acid Value was run and the number of days in the over was recorded.
- 6. Over the course of two weeks all vials were tested. The 5^thvial was tested on day 14.

An increase in the acid value indicates hydrolysis is occurring. Less increase in acid value indicates better hydrolytic stability. The data for the hydrolytic stability is shown in Table 33.

The data indicates that DIACID 1550 2-ethylhexyl partial ester is relatively hydrolytically stable. Paired with the lubrication data, this information indicates that DIACID 1550 2-ethylhexyl partial ester is a very effective ester boundary lubricant for metalworking fluids.

Comparison of Lubricity Between Semi-Synthetic Metalworking Fluid with DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexyl Partial Ester and a Lubricant Used in the Industry. DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexyl Half Ester containing Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60B) and an Industry Standard Lubricant containing Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60C) were examined via a microtap testing and Falex pin and vee block, shake foam test, cast iron chip test, hard water stability, and emulsion stability.

Microtap testing involved a test bar of the desired alloy with pre-drilled holes through it. These holes were filled with metalworking fluid diluted to 10% in deionized water, then a tapping bit was driven into each hole. The instrument rotated the tapping bit at 500 rpm, and had a torque gauge attached. Four holes were tapped with each fluid, and the mean value of the torque was reported as the work performed by the tapping tool. Lubrication of the formulas was evaluated with 1018 Steel and 6061 Aluminum. The results are shown in Tables 34 and 35 and FIGS. 4-7. With the fluid being the only variable, the lowest mean value determines the best fluid. The mean value is the average torque over the depth of cut.

Falex testing evaluates the lubrication of a metalworking formula. The test was run using steel or aluminum pin and vees. The test was run with steel pin and vee blocks at 5% dilution of the formulas in 100 ppm hardness water. A return to zero torque signifies a failure. As can be seen in FIG. 8, the Industry Standard Lubricant Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60C) failed the test, while DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexyl Partial Ester Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60B) did not.

The shake foam test evaluates the foaminess of a metalworking fluid by placing 50 mL of a 5% solution in deionized water into a 100 mL stoppered graduated cylinder. The cylinder is then shaken vigorously for 10 seconds. The foam height at t=0 is measured, as is the time for the foam to dissipate to 0 mL. The data from the shake foam test is shown in Table 36.

Next, the samples were tested using the cast iron chip corrosion test. Any appearance of rust indicates a failure of the fluid to prevent corrosion. Images of the test paper are shown in FIGS. 9 and 10. The test was run at 100 ppm hardness and 500 ppm hardness water at varying dilutions of the formulas. In both tests, the DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhexyl Partial Ester Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60B) and the Industry Standard Lubricant Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60C) have comparable performance for cast iron corrosion inhibition.

Hard water tolerance was examined with by diluting the formulas to 5% in water of varying hardness. The two samples on the left in FIG. 11 are the DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhydroxyl Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid formulation (78-60B) and the two on the right are the Industry Standard Lubricant Metalworking Fluid formulation (78-60C). The translucent dilutions are 500 ppm hardness water, the opaque solutions are 1000 ppm hardness water. These formulas show no variation in their degree of hard water tolerance, both are still stable emulsions at 1000 ppm hardness.

Emulsion stability was examined by heating the formulation concentrates to 120° C. for 4 hours, cooled to 0° C. for 4 hours, and then allowed to return to room temperature. At each stage these formulations were observed to be equally stable, indicating that the balance of emulsifier to oil and water is stable in both formulations. Neither formula exhibited better emulsion stability than the other.

These tests demonstrate that Industry Standard Lubricant Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60C) and the DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhydroxyl Semi Synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60B) have similar lubricating abilities. These tests indicate that the two formulas have similar characteristics with regard to corrosion protection properties, and emulsion and hard water stability. Formula Industry Standard Lubricant Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60C) has 3% better lubrication in the microtap torque test using steel than DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhydroxyl Semi Synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60B), though this difference is minor. Furthermore, there is not a statistically significant difference between these lubricants in the microtap test tapping aluminum alloy. It was observed that DIACID 1550 2-Ethylhydroxyl Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60B) had faster foam dissipation in the shake test than the Industry Standard Lubricant Semi-synthetic Metalworking Fluid (78-60C).

The components found in Table 37 were added in the order in which they are found in the table. The 100 SUS naphthenic oil was added to a beaker with a magnetic stirrer. The agitator was turned on and the oil heated to a temperature slightly above room temperature (40-45° C.). In larger batches, for example in a 5 gallon drum, the 100 SUS naphthenic oil was preheated. Sodium sulfonate was warmed to about 50° C. in an oven. The hot sodium sulfonate was then added to the naphthenic oil while the agitation continued. The sodium sulfonate is quite viscous, so the heat was used to enable the sodium sulfonate to more quickly dissolve in the naphthenic oil.

The remaining ingredients were added in the order provided in Table 37 without the use of any heat and assuring uniform dispersal prior to the addition of the next ingredient. In some embodiments, the defoamer was not utilized. Examination of the formulations is shown in Table 38.
