Study of Factors Influencing High-Temperature Detergency of Alkylated Phenyl Salicylates

Abstract

Lubricants with longer drain interval should be easy to maintain, economical, and environment friendly. Compact and high-performance machines require high-performance lubricants. Under these circumstances, alternative ashless additives exhibiting sufficient high-temperature stability and antioxidancy have to be developed. We have found that the addition of alkylated phenyl salicylates to the lubricants leads to good high-temperature detergency. In this paper, we report the factors affecting the high-temperature detergency of the alkylated phenyl salicylates and their utility.
