Further, when combining the short-chained fatty acid and the long-chained fatty acid, the proportion of the short-chained fatty acid in the total of both is preferably 50 to 80% by mole, more preferably 60 to 75% by mole, and even more preferably 65 to 70% by mole.
Among the esters of (ii), esters represented in the following (ii-1) to (ii-4) are preferably used in the point of achieving various characteristic such as the frictional property and the precipitation resistance in good balance.

The number of carbon atoms in the unsaturated fatty acid constituting the esters of (ii-1) is preferably 10 or higher, more preferably 12 or higher, and even more preferably 14 or higher in the point of further improving the frictional property. Further, the number of carbon atoms in the unsaturated fatty acid is preferably 28 or lower, more preferably 26 or lower and even more preferably 24 or lower in the point of the precipitation resistance.

Esters of (ii-3) are preferred in the point of achieving all the frictional property (i.e. reduction of the frictional index and energy-saving property), the precipitation resistance, the abrasion resistance and the rust resistance in good balance with high degree. In the esters of (ii-3), it is preferable to combine short-chained fatty acid having 2 carbon atoms with long-chained fatty acid having 12 to 18 carbon atoms in the point of further improving the precipitation resistance. Moreover, the proportion of the short-chained fatty acid in the total amount of the constituting fatty acids is preferably 60 to 80% by mole, more preferably 60 to 75% by mole, and even more preferably 65 to 70% by mole. When the proportion of the short-chained fatty acid is less than 50% by mole, there is tendency to lower the solubility to the base oil. Moreover, when the proportion of the short-chained fatty acid exceeds 80% by mole, there is tendency to lower the reduction effect of the friction.

In the esters of (ii-4), the proportion of partial ester having the esterification degree of 1 is preferably 10 to 70% by mole, and more preferably 20 to 50% by mole based on the total amount of partial ester having the esterification degree of 1 and partial ester having the esterification degree of 2 or more.

The lubricative composition of the invention is specifically suitable as a lubricating oil composition. As more specific embodiment, it is suitable for a gear oil composition, a lubricating oil composition for paper machines, a lubricating oil composition for slide guides, a hydraulic oil, and the like.
Gear oil composition is more specifically a composition containing at least one kind of the component (A), the component (B) and the component (C) in the base oil.
The mixing ratio of the component (A), the component (B) and the component (C) concerning the gear oil composition is as in the following.
The content of a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound as the component (A-1) in the gear oil composition of the invention is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 0.001 to 5% by weight, more preferably 0.002 to 3% by weight, and even more preferably 0.003 to 1% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. The content of the phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound lower than the minimum value has tendency not to obtain sufficient lubricity. On the other hand, the content exceeding the maximum value has tendency not to obtain appropriate improving effect of lubricity that meet with the content, and may have concerns of lowering thermal and oxidation stability or hydrolysis stability, thus not preferred. Further, among phosphorylated carboxylic acid represented by the formula (1), the content of the compound (including β-dithiophosphorylated propionic acid represented by the formula (6)) whose R4 is a hydrogen atom, is preferably 0.001 to 0.1% by weight, more preferably 0.002 to 0.08% by weight, even more preferably 0.003 to 0.07% by weight, much more preferably 0.004 to 0.06% by weight, and particularly preferably 0.005 to 0.05% by weight. When the content is less than 0.001, there may be a concern of having insufficient improving effect of the extreme pressure property, and on the other hand, when the content exceeds 0.1% by weight, there may be a concern of lowering the thermal and oxidation stability.
The content of thiophosphoric ester (phosphorothionate) as the component (A-2) in the gear oil composition of the invention is not particularly limited, but usually the content is 0.001 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.005 to 5% by weight, and more preferably 0.01 to 3% by weight based on the total amount of the gear oil composition (based on the total amount of a base oil and all the combined additives).
The gear oil composition of the invention can be obtained by (A-1) the phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound or (A-2) the thiophosphoric ester alone, or in combination of both.
The maximum value of the content of the dispersant viscosity index improver as an arbitrary component (B) in the gear oil composition of the invention is 10% by weight, preferably 5% by weight, and more preferably 2% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content exceeds 10% by weight, further improvement in the sludge resisting effect that meet with the content cannot be seen, and lowering of viscosity by shearing is generated, thus not preferred. On the other hand, the minimum value of the content of the dispersant viscosity index improver is 0.01% by weight, preferably 0.05% by weight, and more preferably 0.1% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content of the dispersant viscosity index improver is less than 0.01% by weight, its additive effect cannot be seen, and there may be a concern of worsening the sludge resisting effect of the gear oil composition, thus not preferred.
The maximum value of the content of the component (C-1) as an arbitrary component in the gear oil composition of the invention is 5% by weight, preferably 2% by weight, and more preferably 1% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content exceeds 5% by weight, further improvement in the frictional property that meet with the content cannot be seen, and lowering of the storage stability is generated, thus not preferred. On the other hand, the minimum value of the content of the component (C-1) is 0.001% by weight, preferably 0.003% by weight, and more preferably 0.005% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content of the component (C-1) is less than 0.001% by weight, the improving effect of the frictional property cannot be seen, thus not preferred.
The content of the component (C-2), when combining in the gear oil composition of the invention, is arbitrary, but since there may be a concern of lowering the sludge resistance when a great amount is combined, the content is 5% by weight or lower, preferably 1% by weight or lower, and more preferably 0.5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition. On the other hand, in the point of exhibiting sufficient improving effect of the frictional property, the content is 0.001% by weight or higher, preferably 0.003% by weight or higher, and more preferably 0.005% by weight or higher based on the total amount of the composition.
The lubricative composition of the invention is specifically suitable as a lubricating oil composition for paper machines.
Lubricating oil composition for paper machines is more specifically a composition containing at least one kind of the component (A), the component (B) and the component (C) in the base oil.
The mixing ratio of the component (A), the component (B) and the component (C) concerning the lubricating oil composition for paper machines is as in the following.
The content of (A-1) a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound in the lubricating oil composition for paper machines of the invention is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 0.001 to 5% by weight, more preferably 0.002 to 3% by weight, and even more preferably 0.003 to 1% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. The content of a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound lower than the minimum value has tendency not to obtain sufficient lubricity.

The content of thiophosphoric ester (phosphorothionate) as the component (A-2) is not particularly limited, but usually the content is 0.001 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.005 to 5% by weight, and more preferably 0.01 to 3% by weight based on the total amount of the lubricating oil composition for paper machines (based on the total amount of a base oil and all the combined additives).
The lubricating oil composition for paper machines of the invention can be obtained by (A-1) the phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound or (A-2) the phosphorothionate alone, or in combination of both.
The maximum value of the content of the component (B), the dispersant viscosity index improver, as an arbitrary component in the lubricating oil composition for paper machines of the invention is 10% by weight, preferably 5% by weight, and more preferably 2% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content exceeds 10% by weight, further improvement in the sludge resisting effect that meet with the content cannot be seen, and lowering of viscosity by shearing is generated, thus not preferred.

The content of the component (C-2), when combining in the lubricating oil composition for paper machines of the invention, is arbitrary, but since there may be a concern of lowering the sludge resistance when a great amount is combined, the content is 5% by weight or lower, preferably 1% by weight or lower, and more preferably 0.5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition. On the other hand, in the point of exhibiting sufficient improving effect of the frictional property, the content is 0.001% by weight or higher, preferably 0.003% by weight or higher, and more preferably 0.005% by weight or higher based on the total amount of the composition.

The content of a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound lower than the minimum value has tendency not to obtain sufficient low frictional property and anti-stick-slip property. On the other hand, the content exceeding the maximum value has tendency not to obtain low frictional property and anti-stick-slip property that meet with the content, and may have concerns of lowering thermal and oxidation stability or hydrolysis stability, thus not preferred. Further, among phosphorylated carboxylic acid represented by the formula (1), the content of the compound (including P-dithiophosphorylated propionic acid represented by the formula (6)) whose R4 is a hydrogen atom, is preferably 0.001 to 0.1% by weight, more preferably 0.002 to 0.08% by weight, even more preferably 0.003 to 0.07% by weight, much more preferably 0.004 to 0.06% by weight, and particularly preferably 0.005 to 0.05% by weight. When the content is less than 0.001, there may be a concern of having insufficient improving effect of low frictional property and anti-stick-slip property, and on the other hand, when the content exceeds 0.1% by weight, there may be a concern of lowering the thermal and oxidation stability.
The content of thiophosphoric ester (phosphorothionate) as the component (A-2) is not particularly limited, but usually the content is 0.001 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.005 to 5% by weight, and more preferably 0.01 to 3% by weight based on the total amount of the lubricating oil composition for slide guides (based on the total amount of a base oil and all the combined additives).
The lubricating oil composition for slide guides of the invention can be obtained by (A-1) the phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound or (A-2) the thiophosphoric ester alone, or in combination of both.

When the content exceeds 10% by weight, further improvement in the frictional property and separability from a soluble cutting oil that meet with the content cannot be seen, and lowering of viscosity by shearing is generated, thus not preferred. On the other hand, the minimum value of the content of the component (B) is 0.01% by weight, preferably 0.05% by weight, and more preferably 0.1% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content of the component (B) is less than 0.01% by weight, its additive effect cannot be seen, and there may be a concern of worsening the frictional property of the lubricating oil composition for slide guides and separability from soluble cutting oil, thus not preferred.
The maximum value of the content of the component (C-1) as an arbitrary component in the lubricating oil composition for slide guides of the invention is 5% by weight, preferably 2% by weight, and more preferably 1% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content exceeds 5% by weight, further improvement in the frictional property that meet with the content cannot be seen, and lowering of the storage stability is generated, thus not preferred.
On the other hand, the minimum value of the content of the component (C-1) is 0.001% by weight, preferably 0.003% by weight, and more preferably 0.005% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. When the content of the component (C-1) is less than 0.001% by weight, the improving effect of the frictional property cannot be seen, thus not preferred.
The content of the component (C-2), when combining in the lubricating oil composition for slide guides of the invention, is arbitrary, but since there may be a concern of lowering the sludge resistance when a great amount is combined, the content is 5% by weight or lower, preferably 1% by weight or lower, and more preferably 0.5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition. On the other hand, in the point of exhibiting sufficient improving effect of the frictional property, the content is 0.001% by weight or higher, preferably 0.003% by weight or higher, and more preferably 0.005% by weight or higher based on the total amount of the composition.

Hydraulic oil composition is more specifically a composition containing at least one kind of the component (A) and the component (B) in the base oil. Further, hydraulic oil composition is even more specifically a composition containing the component (D) in the base oil.
The mixing ratio of the component (A), the component (B) and the component (D) concerning the hydraulic oil composition is as in the following.
The content of (A-1) a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound in the hydraulic oil of the invention is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 0.001 to 1% by weight, and more preferably 0.002 to 0.5% by weight based on the total amount of the composition. The content of a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound lower than the minimum value has tendency to be insufficient in improving effect of abrasion resistance and frictional property. On the other hand, the content exceeding the maximum value has tendency to lower sludge resistance. Further, among phosphorylated carboxylic acid represented by the formula (1), the content of the compound (including β-dithiophosphorylated propionic acid represented by the formula (6)) whose R4 is a hydrogen atom, is preferably 0.001 to 0.1% by weight, more preferably 0.002 to 0.08% by weight, even more preferably 0.003 to 0.07% by weight, much more preferably 0.004 to 0.06% by weight, and particularly preferably 0.005 to 0.05% by weight. When the content is less than 0.001, there is tendency to be insufficient in improving effect of abrasion resistance and frictional property, and on the other hand, when the content exceeds 0.1% by weight, there is tendency to lower sludge resistance.
The content of the component (A-2) in the hydraulic oil of the invention is preferably 5% by weight or lower, more preferably 2% by weight or lower, and even more preferably 1.5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition. When the content exceeds 5% by weight, the thermal stability of the hydraulic oil becomes insufficient, and there is tendency to lower the sludge resistance. Moreover, the content of the component (A-2) is preferably 0.005% by weight or higher, more preferably 0.01% by weight or higher, and even more preferably 0.05% by weight or higher based on the total amount of the composition. When the content is lower than 0.005% by weight, there is tendency to be insufficient in the abrasion resistance.
The hydraulic oil of the invention can be obtained by (A-1) the phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid compound or (A-2) the thiophosphoric ester alone, or in combination of both.
The content of (B) the dispersant viscosity index improver in the hydraulic oil of the invention is preferably 10% by weight or lower, more preferably 5% by weight or lower, and even more preferably 2% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition. When the content exceeds 10% by weight, further improvement in the sludge resistance, the abrasion resistance and the frictional property that meet with the content cannot be seen, and there is tendency to easily generate lowering of viscosity by shearing. Moreover, the content of (B) the dispersant viscosity index improver in the hydraulic oil is preferably 0.01% by weight or higher, more preferably 0.05% by weight or higher, and even more preferably 0.1% by weight or higher based on the total amount of the composition. When the content is less than 0.01% by weight, there is tendency to lower the sludge resistance, the abrasion resistance and the frictional property.
The content of (D) an ester oiliness improver in the hydraulic oil of the invention is arbitrary, but in the point of excelling in the friction reducing effect, the content is preferably 0.01% by weight or higher, more preferably 0.05% by weight or higher, and even more preferably 0.1% by weight or higher based on the total amount of the composition. Further, the content, in the point of precipitation resistance, is preferably 10% by weight or lower, more preferably 7.5% by weight or lower, and even more preferably 5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition.
In the case where the hydraulic oil composition is a composition containing the component (A) and component (B) in the base oil, when a sulfur-based abrasion resistant or a phosphorus-based abrasion resistant is used, there may be a concern of increasing the friction index or worsening the sludge resistance; thus, the content of the sulfur-based abrasion resistant or the phosphorus-based abrasion resistant is 5% by weight or lower, preferably 1% by weight or lower, more preferably 0.5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition, and it is the most preferable that no such abrasion resistant is contained therein.
As described above, the hydraulic oil composition is, more specifically, a composition containing the component (D) in the base oil, but in this case, when a sulfur-based abrasion resistant is used, there may be a concern of increasing the friction index or worsening the sludge resistance; thus, the content of the sulfur-based abrasion resistant is 5% by weight or lower, preferably 1% by weight or lower, more preferably 0.5% by weight or lower based on the total amount of the composition, and it is the most preferable that no such abrasion resistant is contained therein.

Moreover, as a simple sulfur, any form of clusters, powders, melt liquid and the like may be used, but if a simple sulfur of powder or melt liquid form is used dissolution to a base oil can be effectively carried out, thus preferred. Further, since a melt liquid simple sulfur is mixed with the same liquid, it has an advantage that the dissolution operation can be carried out in very short time. However, the mixture must be handled in the temperature higher than or equal to the melting point of the simple sulfur, thus special equipments such as a heating equipment or the like are necessary, and since handling is done in high temperature atmosphere, danger is accompanied, and the like, thereby the handling is not necessarily easy. On the contrary, the powdered simple sulfur is easily handled due to the cheap price, and since the time needed for the dissolution is sufficiently short, thus particularly preferred. In addition, the content of sulfur in sulfurized mineral oil concerning the invention is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 0.05 to 1.0% by weight, and more preferably 0.1 to 0.5% by weight based on the total amount of sulfurized mineral oil.
