LUBRICATING OIL COMPOSITION

摘要

The use, in a minor amount, of a detergent composition comprising one or mo re metal detergents which comprises metal salts of organic acids, wherein the detergent composition comprises more than 50 mole %, based on the moles of the metal salts of organic acids in the detergent composition, of: (I) a metal salt of an aromatic carboxylic acid, or (II) a metal salt of a phenol, or (III) both a metal salt of an aromatic carboxylic acid and a metal salt of a phenol, in a lubricating oil composition for improving the oxidation resistance of t he lubricating oil composition, wherein the amount of phosphorus and sulfur in the oil composition is less than 0.09 mass % and at most 0.5 mass % respectively, based on the mass of the oil composition. It has also been found that a detergent composition comprising more than 50 mole % of a metal salt of an aromatic carboxylic acid improves the reduction in wear in an engine.
