The present invention relates to heat transfer compositions comprising refrigerant, lubricant and stabilizer, wherein the refrigerant comprises 39 to 45% by weight difluoromethane (HFC-32), 1 to 4% by weight pentafluoroethane (HFC-125), and 51 to 57% by weight trifluoroiodomethane (CF.sub.3I), and wherein said lubricant comprises polyol ester (POE) lubricant and/or polyvinyl ether (PVE) lubricant, and wherein said stabilizer comprises an alkylated naphthalene and optionally but preferably an acid depleting moiety.

This application relates to copolymer compositions and copolymerization processes, as well as to lubricating oil compositions comprising such copolymer compositions as viscosity index improvers, and base oil. The copolymer compositions may be made using two different metallocene catalysts: one capable of producing high molecular weight copolymers; and one suitable for producing lower molecular weight copolymers having at least a portion of vinyl terminations, and the copolymer compositions produced thereby. Copolymer compositions may comprise (1) a first ethylene copolymer fraction having high molecular weight, exhibiting branching topology, and having relatively lower ethylene content (based on the weight of the first ethylene copolymer fraction); and (2) a second ethylene copolymer fraction having low molecular weight, exhibiting linear rheology, and having relatively higher ethylene content (based on the weight of the second ethylene copolymer fraction). Lubricating oil compositions comprising such copolymer compositions may exhibit superior viscosity properties.

The present invention relates to heat transfer compositions comprising refrigerant, lubricant and stabilizer, wherein the refrigerant comprises from about 10% by weight to 100% by weight of trifluoroiodomethane (CF.sub.3I), and wherein said lubricant comprises polyol ester (POE) lubricant and/or polyvinyl ether (PVE) lubricant, and wherein said stabilizer comprises an alkylated naphthalene and optionally but preferably an acid depleting moiety.

One aspect of the present invention is a refrigerating machine oil comprising a base oil, a dithiophosphoric acid ester, and a phosphonate ester.

The present invention provides a refrigerating machine oil comprising a lubricating base oil and at least one selected from the group consisting of an amine salt of phosphonic acid and an amine salt of phosphonic acid monoester, and a method for producing the same.

Provided is a lubricating oil composition for a shock absorber, the lubricating oil composition being capable of emitting fluorescence by ultraviolet irradiation while ensuring thermal stability and abrasion resistance. This lubricating oil composition for a shock absorber contains, as components: (A) a base oil; (B) a hydrocarbon compound having a stilbene structure; and (C) a phosphite ester.

Provided is a lubricating oil composition containing a mineral base oil (A) having a temperature gradient Δ|Dt| of a distillation temperature between two points of a distillation amount of 2.0% by volume and a distillation amount of 5.0% by volume in a distillation curve of 6.8° C./% by volume or less, and an antioxidant (B) containing an amine-based antioxidant (B1), a phenol-based antioxidant (B2), and a phosphorus-based antioxidant (B3), wherein the content of the component (B3) is 0.06 to 1.0% by mass based on the total amount of the lubricating oil composition. The lubricating oil composition is a long-life lubricating oil composition that maintains excellent oxidation stability even for long-term use in a high-temperature environment, and has a high effect of suppressing the generation of sludge for a long period of time.

The present invention provides a method for producing a refrigerating machine oil, comprising blending a hydrocarbyl hydrogen phosphite having an acid value of 100 mgKOH/g or less with a lubricating base oil or an oil composition containing a lubricating base oil, and a refrigerating machine oil obtained by the method.

A booster additive concentrate may advantageously contain: (a) an anti-wear mixture of two or more phosphite/phosphate compounds and one or more ether/thioether compounds; (b) an ashless dispersant; (c) a calcium-containing detergent, such as an overbased calcium phenate; (d) ≥2 friction modifiers, at least one of which comprises a polyalkylene polyamine succinimide derivative; (e) optionally a corrosion inhibitor; and (f) a lubricating oil basestock. Based on these additive components, the booster additive concentrate may exhibit specific contents of B/Ca/P and may contain minimal or substantially no additional antioxidants. Lubricant compositions can be made from the booster additive concentrates and a fresh/used lubricant oil composition “diluent,” which can rejuvenate the diluent. Such lubricant compositions can have advantageous anti-shudder durability (ASD) lifetimes and other frictional properties. In particular, such concentrates/compositions can offer superior lubrication when used in vehicles with continuously variable transmissions (CVTs).

A composition obtained by reacting an O,O′-dialkyldithiophosphoric acid with a hydroxyalkyl acrylate or a hydroxyalkyl methacrylate, and reacting the product thereof with a dialkylphosphite provides good antiwear protection.
