Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a new lubrication composition formulated using Lignin Derivatives, which can improve performance in applications such as heavy duty lubricants, greases, and metal working fluids. The Lignin Derivatives can also be used as a rheology control agent to prevent fluid loss and enhance mud stability. Overall, the patent text presents a valuable alternative to traditional additives and offers improved performance with Lignin Derivatives as a lubricant composition.

Problems solved by technology

(Wood Sci. Technol. 19: 139-149 (1985) that do not allow them to be easily melted and / or blended into lubricant products.

example 1

The Preparation of Grease from Lignin Examples 1-3

[0029]Lignin Examples 1-3 (1-25% parts by weight) with a particle size of −0 micron was mixed at ambient temperature with calcium 12-hydroxystearate soap grease (NLGI grade of 2) until homogeneous. The resulting grease samples exhibit higher grease consistency as the dosages increase (for details, see Table 2). Lignin 3 at a reduced particle size of 2 um is able to thicken the grease at a reduced dosage of 4%. The grease with 10% Lignin Example 1 was found to exhibit higher than 300 kg Four-Ball EP weld load as compared to 160 kg of the base grease.

example 2

The Preparation of Grease from Lignin Example 3

[0030]Lignin Example 1 (20-40 um) and was mixed at 4 wt % at ambient temperature with calcium sulfonate grease (NLGI grade of 2) until homogeneous. The resulting grease sample is a gel, of NLGI grade of 000 or less, with excellent fluidity. Four-Ball weld load was unchanged from the sulfonate base grease.

example 3

The Preparation of Stable Water Based Emulsion from Lignin 4

[0031]Lignin Example 4 with particle size of <100 microns was charged to a mixture of alkylbenzene oil (10 cSt with aniline point of 60 C), sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate, alkyl phenol ethoxylates, and butyl or methyl cellulose, and heated to 60 C whereupon the mixture thicken and form a stable emulsion concentrate that can be further diluted with water

Abstract

A novel and environmentally friendly lignin based lubricant composition in the form of oil, gel, grease, paste, solid, or water / glycol emulsion comprising lignin and / or its derivatives with a dosage ranging from 0.01 to 95 wt %, preferably 0.1% to 80 wt %, or even more preferably 0.5 to 60 wt % dispersed in at least one or more components selected from 1) base oils, 2) surfactants or coupling agents, 3) lubricant additives, or 4) grease thickeners of soap or non-soap type whereupon the said composition was found to exhibit novel and synergistic performance benefits such as, but not limited to, antioxidancy, extreme pressure, antiwear, lubricity as well as a rheology modifying characteristics, e.g. thickening effect, for a broad range of lubricant, grease, or oil field drilling applications.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation in-part of Ser. No. 61 / 328,873, Filed on Apr. 28, 2010 and titled “Lignin Derivatives for lubricant and grease applications” and Ser. No. 61 / 533,227, filed on Sep. 11, 2011, titled “Lignin based grease improvements”.BACKGROUND[0002]Lignin is the main structural component of the plant and is nature's most abundant organic polymers with varying content of aromatic / Phenolic / ether functionalities. Lignin is isolated as the by-products in the traditional paper pulping industry as well as from biomass conversion technologies or solvent pulping process and through which lignin is physically modified or chemically derivativized into sulfonates (e.g. Sulfite process), thio-lignin (Kraft process), or sulfur-free lignins (e.g. Soda process). For a comprehensive review on the commercial processes in isolating / modifying lignin, see J. Polymer and the environment, vol. 10, nos. 1-2, April 2002, page 39-48. The use of ...
