What is the job of an engine lubricant ?

13 © The Lubrizol Corporation 2007, all rights reserved


What is in a Modern Lubricant?

• Consider three aspects of the lubricant:

Antifoam Agent PPD


Seal Swell Agent Base Oil 3
Friction Modifier
Performance Package

ZDDP Type Base Oil 2


Viscosity
Antioxidants Modifier

Detergents Base Oil 1

Dispersant

14 © The Lubrizol Corporation 2007, all rights reserved


Base Oils
.. A Closer Look

• Today’s base oils are highly refined materials.


• The main role of a base fluid is to lubricate and cool all moving parts in
the engine.
• Base oils fall into 4 main groups
– Group 1..higher sulfur / lower VI
– Group 2..lower sulfur / higher VI
– Group 3..hydrocracked ( better quality )
– Group 4..Polyalkylolefins
• Groups 1 & 2 are generally considered mineral oils whilst groups 3
and 4 are considered synthetic.

Dispersant
• Purpose
– Keep insoluble contaminants dispersed in the lubricants

• Typical Compounds
– Alkylsuccinimides, alkylsuccinic esters, and mannich reaction
products

• Functions
– Contaminants are bonded by polar attraction to dispersant
molecules, prevented from agglomerating and kept in
suspension due to solubility of dispersant

Detergent
• Purpose
– Keep surfaces free of deposits

• Typical Compounds
– Metallo–organic compounds of sodium, calcium and magnesium
phenolates, phosphonates and sulphonates.

• Functions

Do We Need High TBN?
• There is a debate ongoing within emerging market areas over the
continued use of higher TBN levels now that the fuel sulphur levels
are reducing.
• It is important to remember the following :
– Not all areas have reduced levels of sulphur within the fuels. Even
within countries where sulphur levels have reported to decrease, there
are still large volumes of imported fuels containing traditional or high
levels of sulphur.
– Whilst we may be seeing the level of sulphur decreasing, at the same
time we are experiencing consumers wishing to promote and practice
extended drain intervals between oil change. This practice dictates the
need for maintaining a suitably high level of TBN.
– We also need to look further than TBN or even TBN retention. Lubrizol
16010 utilizes Calcium as the detergent substrate. Calcium can provide
better acidic neutralisation than magnesium substrates, thus providing
lower End of Test TAN values, and hence offering better engine
protection.

Anti-wear and EP Agent
• Purpose
– Reduce Friction and wear and prevent scoring and seizure

• Typical Compounds
– Zinc dithiophosphates, organic phosphates, acid phosphates,
organic sulfur and chlorine compounds, sulfurized fats, sulfides
and disulphides.

• Functions
– Chemical reaction with metal surface to form a film with lower
shear strength than the metal, thereby preventing metal to metal
contact

Durability under severe operating conditions

Increased fuel economy requirements

Aftertreatment compatibility is driving down the


levels of SAPS to maintain emissions compliance

Exhaust Gas Recirculation - EGR

• Technique directs exhaust gas back into


the air intake
• Gases have already been used by the
engine and are low in oxygen (therefore
reducing the oxygen content of the air
intake)
• Exhaust gas absorbs more energy during
combustion
• Fewer Nitrogen Oxides are formed as
– Less oxygen to react with
– Lower cylinder temperature (high
temperature needed to form Nitrogen
Oxides) Exhaust gas

How is Biodiesel Made? Transesterification

• Natural oils are glycerol esters of fatty acids, commonly called


triglycerides.
• In transesterification, the glycerol is removed and replaced with
methanol, breaking up the triglyceride to give the methyl ester.

Biodiesel

Biodiesel

RME biodiesel has similar properties to diesel:

; High lubricity
; High cetane number
; High detergency
: Lower energy content (~10% lower)
; Use of B5 has no noticeable impact on power efficiency
: Use of B100 results in loss of 5-7% in maximum power capability
: Hygroscopic

• Biofuel derived from different feedstock does differ in chemical and


physical properties and can impact engine and aftertreatment device
(ATD) operation.
• And not all RMEs are equivalent!

Biodiesel

Trend for increasing biodiesel usage


Global introduction

• Europe
– The introduction of biodiesel in Europe is legislation led.
– EN590 (diesel fuel specification) allows up to 5% biodiesel in
ULSD - this is known as B5.
– By 2010, B5 is expected to be the mandated standard across
Europe.
– The level may rise to 10% in ULSD (B10) in the future (2010).
– However, some applications already use higher concentrations,
from B30 to B100.
• Certain EU countries (France, Germany and Spain) are
publicly discussing the introduction of higher levels of
biodiesel (B30).

61 © The Lubrizol Corporation 2007, all rights reserved


Biodiesel

Global Introduction of Biodiesel

• North America
• B5 level is typical across North America but can vary from state
to state.
• Technical performance evaluations are currently taking place
with B20.

• Asia Pacific and Rest of World


• Currently discussing introduction of B5/B10 levels.

• Globally
• Expect some applications (e.g., off-highway and fleet operators)
to use B100.

Impact of Biodiesel on Engine Operation

Biodiesel

ACEA (European Automobile Manufacturer Association) position:


“The use of biodiesel fuels cannot occur without adopting a series of
precautions.
Indeed, unless the proper precautions are taken biodiesel fuels can
cause a variety of engine performance problems including filter
plugging, injector coking, piston ring sticking and breaking, seal
swelling and hardening/cracking and severe lubricant
degradation.
Biodiesel fuels also require special treatment at low temperatures to
avoid an excessive rise on viscosity
and loss of fluidity.”

Impact of Biodiesel on Engine Operation

Biodiesel

Impact on Fuel Injection System


:Fuel injection equipment manufacturers are concerned about
biodiesel quality and use of biodiesel at levels greater than B5 with
Euro V equipment.
:B100 is not compatible with certain elastomers and natural rubber
compounds.

In June 2004, the joint FIE manufacturers published a document stating, “the
currently agreed position of all FIE manufacturers is to limit release of
injection equipment for admixtures up to a maximum of 5% FAME with
unadulterated diesel fuel. The final product B5 must also comply with EN590.”

Impact of Biodiesel on Emissions

Biodiesel

Impact on Emissions

; No distinguishable difference between ULSD and B5 biofuel with


respect to NOx and PM emissions.

• Use of B100 :
; significantly reduces PM emissions versus ULSD (by up to 50%)
: Increase NOx emissions versus ULSD (by ~10%, which is
significant enough to lead to recalibration of the SCR/UREA
system).

68 © The Lubrizol Corporation 2007, all rights reserved


Biodiesel/Lubricant Interaction

• Use of biodiesel fuel is leading to increased levels of fuel dilution in


the sump.
– Fuel dilution levels >10% are not uncommon.
• As biodiesel is less volatile than mineral diesel it has the tendency
to concentrate in the sump of the engine.
– B5 fuel can concentrate to >B20 in the sump.

• Concerns over fuel dilution leading to higher maintenance costs


and possibly reduced engine life as a result of :
1. Viscosity decrease (oils can quickly go out of grade)
2. Viscosity increase can also occur due to oxidative thickening
3. Increased levels of piston deposits
4. Potentially leading to sludge.

Biodiesel Conclusions

• The introduction of biodiesel impacts the fuel quality.

• The source of feedstock impacts the fuel quality.

• There are likely to be various sources of biodiesel globally, and


biodiesel fuel sources may be mixed.

• The use of biodiesel may lead to increased levels of fuel dilution in


the lubricant.

• Increased levels of fuel dilution in the lubricant is affecting:


– Viscosity
– Piston cleanliness
– Possibly sludge

• OEM recommendations on maximum Bxx level, oil quality and ODI


should be followed throughout the life of the vehicle.

Key Messages to the Market

• There are concerns in terms of engine durability and protection


when using biodiesel higher than B5.

• Respect OEM (including FIE) recommendations when using


biodiesel.

• Lubrizol Heavy Duty technology is compatible with biodiesel when


used in accordance with OEM recommendations.
